I'm trying to play the Conquerors on Windows 7 but I get the following error:
Age of Empires II Expansion has stopped working
The Age Of Kings runs just fine

@Wipqozn This is all the details I have.. I installed the game, than the expansion. The Age of Kings works the Conquerors throws this awkward error. – Ionut Dec 28 '11 at 16:09

I had a friend with this problem recently but on XP. Several of us had the exact same files yet his was the only one that didn't work. We thought it might be related to video drivers. – Matthew Read Dec 28 '11 at 20:05

I had some similar trouble with the game. I found this article(thread) quite helpful.
Open notepad and copy/paste the part below.
If you have Age of Empires II:
taskkill /F /IM Explorer.exe EMPIRES2.EXE Start explorer.exeIf you have Age of Empires II with expansion:
taskkill /F /IM Explorer.exe age2_x1.exe Start explorer.exe
Save as
Windows7 fix.batand put it in the same folder where you installed Age of Empires.- Make a shortcut to the bat to access the game and if necessary change the icon so it looks like the actual shortcut.

I suggest you go into options and try changing the resolution around until it stops crashing.
