Age of Empires 2 Conquerors (AOE2) multiplayer LAN problem Vista-XP   
Nostalgic moments of going back to AOE2. :D Too bad I cannot seem to
play multiplayer LAN with my friends.

Currently I have 3 Windows XP PC/Laptops, 1 Vista. I have googled, read
most of TechArena's tips and helps. But still no good. All my WinXP
machines can connect fine. But not Vista.

PROBLEMS:
- WinXP created game. Vista can join, but ALL XP machines cannot
receive information from Vista machine. So if they change group number,
new civs or whatever, or click READY, XP machine doesn't register
anything
- Vista created game. XP tries to join but hangs at the "Joining Game"
screen. Have to press ESC to cancel. 
- So problem is XP cannot receive information from Vista. Vista cannot
seem to "access" XP either. 


TESTED:
- Removed firewall
- Open up ports
- Disable UAC
- Installed LLTD in WinXP
- Disabled iPv6 and what not that's not in WinXP's network protocols
- Even regedit of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SYSTEM -> CONTROL -> LSA ->
restrictanonymous (change value to 1)


Can someone help please??!!

=) aDk

Nope. If I could played over Internet I would. I just want to play it
over LAN. My internet is not good enough to handle 4 PCs to join
igzones.

I meant you would search the site for patches, they have them a pack for
multiplayer options.
