Hi Gary,
Sounds like the Service Pack may have improperly installed.
Use system restore to go back to a point before you installed
SP1, reboot your system, and test the game. Once you're
sure the game is working properly, shut off your antivirus and
other software, and install the latest Service Pack (1a) from
the Windows Update site. Hope this helps, good luck!

| Hi,
|
| Since installing SP1 my Age Of Empires II cannot change resolution
| correctly. It yields a corrupted screen. I normally have my screen
| at 800x600 but play AoE at 1024x768. Before, AoE would switch
| resolutions. Now I must set the screen resolution before running
| AoE.
|
| Any help appreciated.

| Thanks,
