Age of Empire 3 Multiplayer

Hi,

Since installing windows vista I have been having issues joining
most online games in Age of Empires 3: The warchiefs. about 80% of the games
i try to join, i get the following message "Failed to join game"

I know this is a vista issue, as i have the game working on xp just fine. I
have read and done everything microsofts website and on age
community website and forums, checked all the ports, and i am certain its
vista.

Are you guys at microsoft aware of this?

Re: Age of Empire 3 Multiplayer


Same problem to me. In the same network Age of Empires works fine on an
XP computer, but frequently gives the message "failed to join game" on a
Vista computer.

If you google on "failed to join game" it seems to be a well-known
problem for (new) Vista users, which problem has not been solved yet.

If you visit the Microsoft AoE- or the ESO-site, it seems as if this
problem does not exist.

So the questions are:
- Is this problem known to Microsoft and/or ESO?
- are they working on it?
- when may we expect a solution?

An answer of Microsoft or ESO is very appreciated; the solution even
more ;)
