- Where can I get other questions answered?
Microsoft manages the official Age of Empires II HD forum at http://forums.ageofempiresonline.com/forums/89/ShowForum. The latest and most up to date information on the game will be found there.
- When I try to launch the game, all I see is a white screen. What can I do?
Age of Empires II: HD requires a DirectX 9.0c compatible video card and typically a white screen is a symptom of not having the minimum system requirement video card. Verify that your video card supports DirectX 9.0c, and if not, consider upgrading your hardware. High quality video cards can be purchased for a wide range of prices at many retail and online locations.
- The Age of Empires II: HD launcher looks incorrect and scaled incorrectly. What can I do?
Windows has a dots per inch (DPI) scaling factor in its screen settings that lets you zoom the screen to make some portions easier to read. Some software such as the software used to build the launcher, don’t behave properly when Windows DPI scaling is set away from normal.
