To solve the error "Could Not Initialize Graphics System. Make Sure That
Your Video Card and Driver Are Compatible with DirectDraw" go to:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=242902 to follow the solution to what
is causing that error on your system which is most likely one of the following:

- The Age of Empires shortcut is damaged or incomplete.
- Your video adapter or monitor cannot produce a screen resolution sufficient
to play your Age of Empires game. (Min screen resolution: 800 x 600 16-bit)
- Your video adapter does not meet the minimum system requirements needed
- Microsoft NetMeeting is running on your computer.
- A terminate-and-stay-resident program (TSR) that is incompatible with the game - Your monitor is not configured correctly.
- The refresh rate of your computer monitor is not compatible with the game.
