Weird thing is, when I first installed it, it worked fine, but when I dont play for more than 3 hours, and shut the game down, and load it back up, all the units and buildings are gone, cant move them, hear them though.

(Altough It Wont Work)

As usual you have no idea what your talking about. I doubt you can name a single legitimate reason to "never use vista for gaming".
This doesn't even make any sense. Second, if it won't work, why mention it? It's like saying, "oh, your PC won't power up? Oh ok, try putting a plug in your bathtub, even though it won't work.

What makes it even better is it might work to change the graphics detail in the game to other values, as with resolution. Of course I know the specific settings rather then just blithly saying "change ur graphics settins"This might not be possible.

Anyway, with regards to AOE2, I can play it just fine, with some visual artifacts from transparent layers on the ocean and grass and so forth. But I've never had units dissapear. I assume your loading from a saved game, correct?

Would Windows 7 help at all? Cause I really dont want to revert to xp. (getting the OS on ebay if possible)
