Age of Empires I

Post by xXLuckyXx »

Hi everyone!

I'm getting this error when I try to open Age of Empires Gold Edition:

Here are my PCem specs:

[Socket 7] Award 430VX PCI
Intel Pentium 90 MHz (Recommended for AOE)
128 MB RAM
S3 ViRGE/DX 4 MB // 3dfx Voodoo2 16 MB
Sound Blaster AWE32
2 GB SSD
Windows 95 OSR2.0

Can you tell me which graphic card, that is supported by PCem, is capable of DirectDraw function for Age of Empires?

The ViRGE/DX should be fine. What drivers are you using?

For some reason it didn't install. Voodoo2 did though. I have drivers for ViRGE/DX so I'll install it. If there's still going to be this error I'll post a comment here again.


EDIT: Which one should I install?
