i used to cheat all the time

well in aoe 1  without cheats its really a bore but its ussualy opposite to wat iam in strategy games but i rarely play aoe1 very rarely aoe 2 however is queit ok play that once in a while aom is really the most awsome stiilll like playing it without cheats

i played aoe 1 or 2 good times...
but now i got aoe 3

damn chocolatety graphics card on my pc don't think it would work

it might not
and if you do ever get aoe 3 never play when you have to use ships
if you attk with them
it will lack the hell oout of your pc

ok this is what it says on aoe 3 box (system requirements)

windows xp or higher 256MB RAM
1.4ghz processor
2gb hard drive
56K dial up internet access or LAN (for online)
other sound car
speakers/headphones
for video card 64MB with support for hardware transformation and lighting

I ran AoE fine on a 1.2GHz...  But that was my AthlonX2 downclocked to 1.2GHz...

was it aoe3

^^Yes.  AthlonX2 is far superior to Pentiums in architecture, so a 1.2GHz (downclocked AthlonX2) is actually a lot faster than a Pentium 1.4GHz.

i guess that is probably why you could still play it then
if anyone has the game are you any good at it
