I'm playing AOE II Expansion (the conquers) on my new windows xp
computer, and hey, the background music isn't playing. I made sure that
the audio cable from the CD drive to the sound card was connected, but
the music does not start up when i start a Random Map game, or anything
else.
For some odd reason, the music plays on my older windows 98 computer.
Please help!!

If your PC has two CD drives play the game from the other drive. I know it
sounds silly, it shouldn't make any difference, but it worked for me. And
it'll only cost you about 2 minutes of your time to find out if it solves
your problem.
