Assuming you are getting a sufficient score to play ranked matches, it sounds like a profile/preferences glitch that can be mitigated by us players. I can’t remember the steps to do that, but they have been posted various places numerous times (for different issues).

One other possibility, that I know nothing about, could be some graphics/hardware software conflicting with AOE2.

Benchmark test ranks > 1200 so that’s not the problem.

My notebook has two video cards, but I’ve set the NVIDIA GeForce RXT 5060 to be used for AOE2.
