- Installing Rise of Nations for Windows 7 I am having issues installing Rise of Nations for Windows 7. Everytime i try to run the installer i get a busy cursor then nothing happens. I was wondering if there was a patch or something i could download or if it can work at all for windows 7 home premium.
- Rise of Nations is one of the classic and highly successful games in the real time strategy genre with a 2003 release and an expansion pack (Thrones and Patriots) released a year later. It’s popularity in the gaming community also led to a spin-off game that shifted the game into a Fantasy setting in 2006.

No-CD & No-DVD Patch troubleshooting: The most common problem getting a No-CD/No-DVD patch to work is ensuring that the No-CD/No-DVD patch matches you're game version, because the games exe is changed when a patch update is applied previous versions won't work.
If its an older game you are playing and you are running Windows 7 or Windows 8 it may not work, if you right click the .exe file and choose Properties and then Compatibility you can change this to run in Windows 98/ Windows 2000 etc. You can find more information on the Beginners Help page here
