    Heres the deal:
    I installed unit mods on my Age of Mythology game, and then tried to play it over the LAN connection with my brother.
    It said something about how the versions were incompatible etc. so I tried to update the version of both pc's, its said they were both up to date.
    So I think, "Hey, this could be something to do with the fact that I installed mods on AoM..."
    I remove every mod file i can find - the game still doesnt work.
    I decided to just re-install the game - That would solve my problems! - I thought.
    I uninstall it successfully.
    I try to double-click on the icon in My Computer for Age of Mythology, but it does nothing in particular, just looks lie its about to install soon...nothing happens...
    So I right-click on the icon and suddenly, up comes this message saying that "Kodak Easy-Share" needs to configure and that i should wait. It had tried to open Kodak Easy-Share using my AoM disk!
    I reboot.
    I remove Kodak Easy-Share from my pc, by using the control panel Add/Remove programs.
    I try to start Age of Mythology.
    Nothing happens. At all.
    The files are still on the disk...So I double click the .exe file in there.
    Still nothing.
    And this is my problem

    Why wont Age of Mythology start and what can I do to fix it?

    What you could do - is remove every single file of AoM relatance from your hard drive.. EVERYTHING (possibly format your hard drive if you must).

    Then install it on one computer, and see if it runs on that one, if it dosent try on the other one?

    Could you tell me the computer specs on both your computers? So I can see - its probably the hardware ...

    This is the most basic solution one could ever come up with...
