Exclamation Help With Age Of Empires II


I recently bought an Age Of Empires Collector's Edition DVD. While music does play in the background for Age Of Empires I And Rise Of Rome Expansion, I cannot hear music play in the background for Age Of Empires 2: Age Of Kings and The Conqueror's Expansion.
Can Anyone tell me where the music folder is located in AOE2. I can't seem to find it.
HELP!

the music files are not loaded to the hard drive even on a full install. they are present on the disk as audio tracks, so u wont find them in any folder.

the music plays from the cd as u play the game but i dont know much about the collector`s edition dvd though.

Thanx Stalker. Those Links Helped. The songs r stored in the dvd and plays from the drive . i hadnt connected the audio cable from the drive to the sound card. now the music plays.

Have You Heard: Microsoft's Zone.com has stopped the matchmaking services for AOE2. It handed over the resposibility to gamespy. But, gamespy, unlike microsoft, is a paid service ($10 per year). Does anyone know any other software or sites or anythng that offers free matchmaking services for multiplayer online gaming???

Ofcourse the game has music... u must have played the pirated version which has the music stripped off to reduce size.

Heh, AOE2 and no music? It was so famous, that main theme music that they had to carry it on to AOE3! And it still rings in my mind at times.
