xzaz2 (2008-03-22)

Eveyone who wants to play online with me and my friends. Download Hamachi (google) and come in channel: Epic Empires, pass: age2.

XRichX (2008-04-14)

Does this one work? Or does it come up with 'Insert CD' error when mounted/burned?

XRichX (2008-04-14)

Downloaded it, works fine, thanks alot xzaz2. Brilliant torrent, will be seeding for a few days.

sathiire (2008-05-15)

yay everyone lets seed so it doesnt take 16 hours to download this torrent!

Espionage724 (2008-09-23)

well technically their not ISO's but that doesn't really matter at all...

Jack_Raiden (2008-11-03)

Finally a non-modded, non-"custom installation", straight-up CD image version of Age of Empires II and its expansion. Thank you.

GalvinTjime (2008-11-27)

I jsut found my Age of Empires 2 CD about twenty minutes ago but when I tried to put it in there were some read errors and a very pissed off Vista message. I am glad to have found some ISOs and hope they work well. Thanks for putting them up!

Supreme.Laks (2008-11-30)

Works great!
If you care about it, there is a v1.0c patch for The Conquerors. It can be downloaded here:
The 2.0A patch for Age of Kings is already applied.

Llehfonwaps (2008-12-02)

Great Download, works fine. May I suggest www.igzones.com for online play. MSN gaming zone remake, works wonderfully!

butler63 (2009-01-18)

how do you burn these files?

deano_au (2009-02-02)

cheers seeders!

Baschound (2009-03-13)

I managed to burn the files to disc and install the game but whenevere I try to play it says please insert proper disc. I'm using the disc I burnt the files to... any suggestions?

helpmeD (2009-03-16)

hey can you teach me how to get it to work please? I don't get it :S

FuelCoupe (2009-03-25)

Simple as that hey? Well I've burned these files to cd's using poweriso, the game installs fine, but gives me an error message saying that I need to insert the proper disk, even when you try to launch the game from the disk. So if it is so simple why doesn't it work.

cook_nz (2009-04-01)

FuelCoupe ever heard of a crack...

xifoide (2009-04-12)

i can't install this, i click on setup and it keeps telling me this:
"Setup was unable to find (or could not read) the language specific setup resource dll, unable to continue. Pelase reboot and try again".
What can i do?? Help please!

FuelCoupe (2009-04-14)

cook_nz could you please point out where the uploader mentions anything about a crack ?
"Just 2 cd's (ISO's) Simple as that."
It also seems that I'm not the only one who has this problem going by some of the other comments.

ltcmdrData (2009-04-20)

fuelcoupe, the uploader never mentioned anything about a crack. it's two disc image files. most of the time when your burn an image file, it won't work like the real disc. so you have to get a no-cd crack. here is a site that has a no-cd crack. Espionage724 is right, technically they aren't ISO files, but I believe they are similar to a clone cd file, you simply burn the smallest file.

ltcmdrData (2009-04-21)

thanks for the up xzaz2, works great. I am going to be seeding for a long time so others can enjoy too.

Quan69 (2009-06-17)

FinlandMusic (2009-12-22)

Do netplay with GameSpy works????

canthisreallybetheend (2010-01-16)

The music is included, right?
For some reason I can't get it to work!
Otherwise purrfect; thanks!

canthisreallybetheend (2010-01-16)

Just found out the music is indeed included, by playing it through EAC, but for some reason it still isn't playing. Probably my configuration, win xp or sth tho, and not the rip.

suede678 (2010-01-20)

Thanks!!

Yeahr (2010-02-21)

Everything worked fine except you cannot change the formation of a group of units, or their stance(aggressive or defensive or cease fire). This seems to be true with all the torrents for this game. Why is this the case?

pa30 (2010-02-25)

@ canthisreallybetheend
just keep open wmp open & idle while inserting/mounting cd ...
you can rip it also with wmp ...

Doyle12345 (2010-05-16)

Amazing download speed 800 kb/s nice!

stusieboi (2010-06-17)

hey it installed but when i try and open the conquerors it just says loading and doesnt open. if i hibernate my laptop then turn it back on it sometimes works, but this prevents me from playing multiplayer. help would be much appreciated, thanks

Woops! Figured it out. Works Great. Thanks a million. Love this classic game.

joshourds (2010-10-13)

Woops! Figured it out. Works great. Love this classic game.

GGotLost (2010-10-18)

I'm new to this -- I previously torrented this game on my old computer and managed to make it work fine; but this seems different.
Do I convert the .mdf and .mds files to .iso files first or just burn the .mdf/.mds files straight to CDs and then install from those CDs?

FatLardTina (2010-11-03)

Can anyone tell me if you can play on a hoc network/LAN with this upload? D:

zingo_punkbuzter (2010-11-12)

i would find it very helpful if u added a no-cd patch to your next upload.
but thanks for the upload anyways, will seed for a while.

Armenia1994 (2011-01-20)

Thank you very much :)
loaded fast, will Seed to make more faster for others ;)

Whit3_Addict (2011-02-07)

sad ass dude man u must provide the cracks as well! anyways thanks!

zeca.pt (2011-02-09)

perfect, just what i wa looking for!
i was searching for cd images cause other torrents don't have audio in the cutscene
ty xzaz2
so you say we can play lan using hamachi? ill try then say sth :)

DoctorOctagonapus (2011-02-25)

It doesn't need a crack, Sillies!

BOBHolio (2011-03-22)

The conquerers takes like 3 minutes to open, (stays on loading screen for ages) would appreciate if anyone knew how to fix this :D

ChikinMan (2011-03-22)

Just for some helpful info, ImgBurn can burn just about any CD image format including MDS, and its very reliable. Just a recommendation.

bmart95 (2011-05-27)

If you just want the original Age of Kings, with a patch head on over to:

ArnisL (2011-06-23)

Both CD's installation went just perfect on Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x64

walkthedinosaur (2011-07-16)

Oh thank you, I was looking for these ISOs from the original CDs without anything ripped. I lost my AoE2 disc years ago and I was playing on a shitty cracked version without sound.

walkthedinosaur (2011-07-17)

also some info. if you're getting the no CD error when you try to start the Conquerors, mount the Conquerors ISO and try to open the game with Windows 2000 or Windows 98 compatibility mode. If your game crashes when you try to go to History/Diplomacy/Timeline, go to run > dxdiag > display tab and disable DirectDraw. If you're going to play another game, re-enable it.

Koekjeseter (2011-08-09)

INSTALL GUIDE:
1. Download Alcohol 120%(google it) & this torrent.
2. In Alcohol 120% at the bottom of the program, rightclick below 'Virtual DVD/CD-ROM' your (j:), Mount Image.
3. When you click 'Mount Image' it'll ask you to search your Image to burn, look it up and mount AOE2 in the map 'aok'.
4. Go to My computer and rightclick (J:) AOE2 and click 'explore', once inside you doubleclick AOESETUP.exe; install everything!
5. Now go to Alcohol 120% and mount AGE2_X1 in the map 'aoc'.
6. Go to 'My Computer' rightclick (J:) AGE2_X1 and click 'explore', once inside you doubleclick AOCSETUP.exe; install everything!
7. PLAY!

Koekjeseter (2011-08-09)

Forgot to say that, everytime you want to play this game, you have to mount AOE2 Or AGE2_X1 with Alcohol 102%. This depends wich game you want to play! AOE2 for the normal Age Of Empires and AGE2_X1 for the Conquers.

HsKDaMiAnz (2011-09-26)

You'll be officially branded an idiot if you listen to the advice of pacfish.
A quick explanation for computer illiterates:
explorer.exe is the windows interface. Close that and there goes your interface, you'll have to restart your PC. It has nothing to do with your internet connectivity either.

ajonathan (2011-10-11)

I had to register just to correct the idiot above me: pacfish may or may not have a solution (I'll try it if I need to) but just because you close explorer.exe doesn't mean you can't RESTART it without having to reboot.... just ctrl-alt-del, open the File menu, click 'New Task (Run)', and type explorer... and there you go, explorer back and running in like 2 seconds.
You'll be officially branded an idiot if you listen to the advice of the technologically incompetent.

ajonathan (2011-10-11)

Installed fine and works... lost my copy years ago and had been using a ripped version, so when I saw the intro cutscene it was a nice little bit of nostalgia :)
I installed it into a WindowsXP virtual machine instead of my main Win7 OS.. no issues at all except occasionally it takes 2-3 minutes to exit a game.
----------
TO INSTALL: (I did it in a WinXP VM, should be the same for Win7 or Vista)
- get a program that can mount .mds files (Alcohol 120% worked for me, there are a lot of free programs out there too)
- create a virtual CD drive
- mount the AOC.mds file on the virtual drive, Windows should auto-detect it and show you the AOC installation screen
- install AOC (reboot if it asks)
- unmount and repeat the process with AOK.mds
- install the 1.0c patch, which fixes some bugs and balance issues -
- install the 1.0e patch which will prevent playing with cheaters if you want to play online and will also provide you with a NO-CD patch (so you won't have to mount the .mds file to play). Sorry, I don't have a link to the 1.0e patch so you'll have to google, but its size is 3.41 megabytes, and here's some info about it from the readme:
[AoC] 1.0E Patch - Cheat-Free Zone Gaming
Release Name: [AoC] 1.0E Patch
Release Date: Febuary 08, 2004
Created By: tOrMeNtIuM
Created By: m0d
- play and enjoy one of the best RTSs ever!
NOTE: to play the game you'll need to have whichever version (aoc or aok) mounted when you launch the game, unless you chose to install the 1.0E patch :)
If you want to play online, check the rest of the comments on this torrent for some suggestions, plus check out igzones.com, which if I remember correctly requires the 1.0e patch so you know you won't be playing with cheaters (which was a HUGE problem when I played this 6-10 years ago)
thanks xzaz2!

WINDOWS XP ISSUES / WINDOWS 7 INSTALLATION / WINDOWS 7 COLOR CORRECTION / WINDOWS 7 FULLSCREEN GUIDES:
In WinXP I had the following problems:
- randomly takes up to 3 minutes to show the end-of-game stats after exiting a game
- the in-game scores (hit F5 or maybe F4 while in-game) are oddly extremely blurry and unreadable
- the 'economic' and 'military' views of the minimap dont function correctly (doesn't matter much at all)
----------------------------
WINDOWS 7 INSTALLATION:
I installed on Win7 and all issues are fixed. To install on Win7 do the exact same thing as for XP as I posted in the last comment. There are only 2 slight differences:
- Win7 didnt auto-detect the virtual CD when mounted with Alcohol 120% (other programs may handle auto-play correctly tho), so you have to explore the CD and run AOESETUP.EXE for AOK and SETUP.EXE for AOC.
- If you encounter weird colors, you need to close EXPLORER.EXE while you play the game, and restart it when you're done. (see below)
---------------------------
WINDOWS 7 COLOR CORRECTION:
- open the game, hit alt-tab to return to the desktop, right-click on the start bar, choose 'Start Task Manager', select the 'Processes' tab, right click on 'EXPLORER.EXE', and select 'End Process', then minimize Task Manager and alt-tab back into the game.
- when you're done playing the game, exit it normally, then alt-tab to get back to Task Manager, go to 'File', 'New Task (Run)', and type 'explorer' and hit enter. Have fun :)
--------------------------
RUN AOE/AOC (or any program in Win7) IN FULLSCREEN:
- Win7 has corrected a long standing Windows issue and now CORRECTLY keeps aspect ratios by default. Somehow this looks really ugly and narrow so I chose to stretch it (so it looks as it does on XP normally, and I think Vista too)
- To get it to run in full screen (with no black borders on the edges), you have 2 choices: find your graphics card scale option, or edit the registry. I couldn't find an option for my card, but the registry edit worked. Guides for both below.
Before you do anything though, try creating a new shortcut to the game, and then right click the shortcut, choose 'Properties', and under the 'Shortcut' tab, change the 'Run' value to 'Maximized'. If that doesn't work, try one of the below two ways:
First way: go into your graphics card's control panel, find your display/resolution settings, and find an option called something like 'aspect ratio', or 'scaling', or anything about stretching, centering, or scaling in reference to your display or resolution. Set it to 'scale' or whatever the option is.
Second way: (ONLY FOR ADVANCED USERS, blahblah, be careful, etc) go into the registry and change the key named 'Scale':
- Open up regedit (Start > 'regedit' in the search box)
-Go to
- Click on the display listed (should be only 1 entry if you have only 1 display), and you should see a 00 subkey (or if multiple displays 01, etc)
- Click the 00 subkey and look for the key named 'Scaling', and change it to 3
- reboot if needed (if it won't immediately work)
- this will change ALL programs in Win7 to scale to the width of your screen (or, it should), so change it back if needed
I wrote a script that sits in the background and waits for AOE to be launched. When AOE starts, it kills explorer and changes my registry scaling value. When I exit AOE it automatically restores the scaling value and restarts explorer. Would be convenient for online play. I'll try to look into making it safe to distribute (meaning add some error catching and such lol) and find a way to post it, cuz xzaz2, if you're still reading this, you rock for posting this classic :D

shampoopthe1 (2011-10-22)

Is there any way to fix the water? When I run AoK the water is all blurry and purple.

shampoopthe1 (2011-10-22)

Ignore my first comment. Ok I can install AoK perfectly but AoC I can't. I can mount it and install it but whenever I run AoC it takes forever to load and always asks me to accept the terms and I can never play it because "Could not initialize program. Age of Empires II not detected." Shows up every time.

Sponge58 (2011-11-12)

i tried it on lan it works. fully compatible with win 7 x86 & x64
thanx for upl.

duy1989 (2011-12-11)

i already installed 2 version and mount the version which i play as you guys told but i still cant play it. it say that i need put correct cdrom. can any1 help me? i use win 7 and ultraiso (i think this software is similar to alcohol 120%)

duy1989 (2011-12-11)

i can enter the game one time when i choose auto play the virtual disc. there is some kind of agreement appeared and i need to click agree then i can enter the game. but after i quit the game, i cant re-enter it. it cant find correct cd-rom again.

ramesaliyev (2011-12-16)

@duy1989, download updates and crack from links below, and its gonna not want cd anymore.

richy9 (2012-01-14)

seed more please

richy9 (2012-01-14)

i am stuck while copying file at 51%

Dopemagic (2012-01-16)

For everyone who needs help, it's fairly easy.
Google Daemon tools Lite and download it after you've downloaded the torrent. After both downloads open up Daemon tools and mount Age of Empires 2 (not conquerors). After the install, unmount and mount The Conquerors. Unmount Conquerors after the install. Now you have to install patches for this to work properly
1.0c patch (install first)

1.0e patch (install second) after you install this you wont have to keep mounting the cds to play
you'll have to google this, but its on a site called voobly
User patch v1.1 (this fixes ALL problems you'll have, scrolling problems and the color fix. Move it into the age of empires 2 folder and run the install as an administer or it wont work)
you'll have to google this too (spam filters on pb) its on a site called xomicron
That's all you'll have to do to get this to work properly.

richy9 (2012-01-18)

this game is very good ilove this game

jonnyb1985 (2012-01-24)

I'm having trouble with this game the nocd crack doesn't work for the expansion

The-IT (2012-01-28)

Epic torrent! thank you so much! Also, Dopemagic is Jesus

Proxenus23 (2012-02-19)

My download keeps getting stuck on "Updating System Settings." What do I do?

alienxfb (2012-03-11)

I downloaded the torrent and all of the patches (like what Dopemagic said to do) and I am getting an error when trying to run the expansion. During the opening cinematic, I get a message that says "Age Of Empires has stopped working" and then it closes. Windows says it is looking for a solution, but never finds one of course...
I've tried running as an admin, no dice. I'm using Windows 7. Any ideas?

eltiopepeto (2012-03-29)

i cant download it, why?

MyGume (2012-03-30)

@alienxfb
Hey, by the sound of your name you have an alienware PC? as do i and i seem to be getting the same message. it is just an incompatibility with the new direct X. the only solution i have found is a full pc wipe.

Sr.Valasco (2012-04-17)

For all who are having the "Age of Empires has stopped working" problem... I solved it uninstalling the 1.0e patch. Don´t know if it will work multiplayer, but in single player works fine.

Monitora (2012-04-23)

I cant seem to get past the 50% or 51% mark no matter what I try. Is there anyone who can help me with it?

marlonalm (2012-06-10)

What is the correct install Guide?When i go to the microsoft downloads it says the page don't exist anymore.Please gimme new links and i will seed when i finish downloadin'.

ViscEV (2012-06-12)

Here is the fix for the 51% error. It seems get get stuck installing fonts, so do the following:
1. Explore the ISO and go to SYSTEM > FONTS
2. Copy all the font files (.TTFs) and then open Control Panel
3. Do a search for "fonts" and open the font folder
4. Paste all the font files from the AoE2 disc into your computer's font folder. You don't have to reinstall currently existing fonts.
5. Run the setup again and it should work!

EpicNostra (2012-06-29)

ViscEV Is right just follow what he says and this only works for Win7.
After you mount the .iso Go to the game-system-font copy everything
Go control panel in your right top of window you have the search opportunity if you don't want to browse look for Fonts paste everything if you need overwrite. Just click install again it will continue where it left.

ansa4yazz (2012-10-11)

so i'm stuck @ installing @ 4%, copying ARIALN.TFF wtf is wronnngggg, message me on my email please if you have the answer i dont check the site as much as my email, [email protected] thanks

abd124 (2012-12-06)

The micromanagement option for units (i.e. stance, formations, follow, guard, etc) aren't showing up. Anyone have any idea why that might be?

Great upload , no viruses and ultra easy install.
Works perfectly and run's without any problems.
Thank you.

archicorn27 (2014-10-16)

If this is not working then get this copy instead,
