I've just spent 12 hours downloading Age of Mythology with the Titans expansion and a patch and a keygen off www.Suprnova.org (http://www.Suprnova.org) but when I click on the "setup" menu I use this random keygen generator and it starts to install the game but it gets upto 47% completed then says "Please insert disc 2".

Anyone have any idea's on how to get round this problem ? I was thinking that maybe if I get a Age of Mythology CD 2 crack that it might solve the problem but I don't have any clue of where I will be able to find this. I was just gonna delete the game but I have decided to instead get some help on the matter cause I can't waste all that time downloading then not even get anything out of it.

If you downloaded it from SuprNova it should come with a second CD. CD 2 in this case. Get a program like D-Tools (search google for that or Daemon Tools) and load the image from there. Does it say anything about a second CD in the location you saved it to?

Hmm, I don't fully understand this stuff. I've got a AoM CD2 folder and in that is: All the sounds etc for in the game, an autorun thing, the game startup button, and some strange files I don't know what they are (drvmgt.dll, secdrv & a folder called msxml with some strange program installer in all different languages.)

Any idea of what it might be ? Also how do I use this Daemon tools thingy exactly ? (I don't really know much about comps, just know how to get on the internet and thats about it http://tpww.net/forums/images/smilies/meh.gif )

Hmm sounds weird. Can you print the screen and post an attachment here so I can see the files?

Print Screen button > open Paint > press Ctrl+V and then save. Just in case. :)

Daemon Tools is basically a stealth drive. It acts like a CD/DVD drive without having to actually have one. It lets you run CD images (ISOs, CUEs, BINs, etc) which are basically the CD just copied to a computer harddrive and put together for easy use. It just lets you open and run those without having to burn everything to a CD.

Yeah, that doesn't look like it's helping too much. See what's in the AOM folder and maybe the stuff is in there. Other then that I really don't know what to say. :(

In the AOM folder is just in-game stuff (music, credits, AVI clips, Textures).

Here is the instructions for the "read me" document which isn't really very helpful:

Recipe:
1) Two ISO images of CD 1 and CD 2 burn or use a CD emulation program (like Daemon-tools).
2) To begin the installation, the game will ask you for a serial, use the keygen provided in microsoftageofmythology&aomtitansexpansionkeygenrb.zip (credit goes to KEYGEN UNITED STUDIO).
3) After installation is complete update using the provided patch aom10to108.exe (official game patch from Microsoft).
Copy aom.exe found in dev-aom8.rar to your game folder replacing the original file (credit goes to DEViANCE).

Take a picture of the first folder, CD1 I presume, because it may be in there.

Hmm, I never noticed how much bigger this folder was.

Geez, I don't know. Doesn't look like you got a second CD at all. All I have left to suggest is try reinstalling again or just delete and download it again. :( Don't get the same file though.

Damn. You have any other suggestions of on what programs or torrent sites I might be able to find the game cause there are no other versions on suprnova.........

Seems a little low if you ask me.

The one I got was around 1.2 gigs and the Titans was another 500mb.

I would recommend to re-download it.

Gimme some suggestions where I can get a "proper" version from then. Where did you get yours Ninti ?

suprnova

Just look for a file where a bunch of people are downloading it and it has over a gig in size for the two cd's.

Right, I have downloaded the 1.36gb version, now all I need to know is how to get it to work through that daemon tools program....here's a screenie of what I have in the folder. Can anyone help me out ?

Open up Daemon Tools and there should be a little red lightning bolt icon near your time on the taskbar. Right click it and go to the top option and then load the drive with your first image in the Image Files folder. Just do that until they ask for the next and then load the next image the same way.

Anyone know where I can get a Age of Mythology keygen ? If anyone has one they can send on Msn or something PM me.

Also, make sure you extract the bad file into the models folder like it says.
