OK its been 6 months since i have had my Apple 23 inch cinema HD display and i STILL cant find a solution for Age of Empires. Forcing the resolution in the parameters just crashes my game, and 1024 x 768 on my monitor looks terrible. PLEASE help.

I hope the Age of Mythology fix works for AOE2...

1 ) Set the game to whatever res you want, and click OK. It'll go to that res, stretched to fill the screen. (I believe the highest AOE2 does is 1280x1024)

2 ) Then click on the 'play in window' button in the options on the right. It'll fill the screen. Or it did for me in AOM. Might take a couple of goes to get it to work. Check out the AOM thread for some screenshot examples of the differences. I know there is a link to an AOE2 thread in there, but that thread was one that went AWOL for no apparent reason.

Has anyone verified if this works?

The AOE2 thread got zapped a while back. I can't remember if the technique was the same, or if there was some sort of commandline workaround...

There is no Play in window option in AoE, i think u are thinking about AoM. Additionally, the 1280 x 1024 is greyed out, because my monitor doesnt support it.

I haev a 23 inch Cinema Display.

I actually saw a fix for this game using 1440 X 900. It was a whole bunch of custom scaling stuff in the nvidia control panel. I was using it, but then I lost it because I changed a setting. It also fixed all of my old games that displayed in 1024 by 768. I know you mess with front end active and back end active to somehow acheive the correct ratio. I will keep looking for it and hopefully post it up.
