The Installation of Age of Conan.

I was about to learn that answering those questions wasn’t going to be that easy. I popped in the installation CD and was immediately notified that it wouldn't run on Windows Vista 64. However, the manual did tell me that I could get a 64-bit version from the Z-board website.

I downloaded and installed the 64-bit version of the Z-engine, Ideazon's management utility for the Z-board. The installation went smoothly enough and I rebooted my computer. That’s when the real problems started. The profiler simply would not run after the reboot. Windows kept telling me an error had occurred, and the program was shut down. I tried re-installing, rebooting and a brief prayer, but I could not get the program to run - at all. While in some cases you can overlook installing the manufacturer's software, this is not the case with the Z-board. You need the software in order to download and install the various profiles they have available - in this case, Age of Conan.
