Please help! I've spent probably 4 hours on this. (I suspect the error is here, but haven't a clue what it is.) Yes, I Updated Windows and Restarted like 10 times. Yes, I tried to Uninstall and Reinstalll like 15 times. Yes, I tried to run directly as Admin, and in Compatibility modes.
Not sure I did, but not having problems in other games. Yes, I tried reinstalling VC Redist and DirectX. Yes, I then deleted the user Profile from the Local Files. Yes, I totally uninstalled my video device driver. Yes,I have looked already at MANY forum postings about this issue.

It works perfectly through Steam on my Windows 10 machine, but I want it running on my Windows 7 machine (for complicated life-living reasons). I hit Play there (in the hopes of actually getting to the Main Menu in the game itself, but instead I get the error Failed to initialize draw system : main.cpp(312) when I try to run this on an old Windows 7 machine.
When I click Play in Steam, the AOE2 Startup Launcher comes up fine.
