I am running on a laptop with an NVideo Gforce4 card, and have seemed to have fixed my problem. I will now share with all what I did.
Firstly, I went and updated all my graphics drivers with the help of my Compaq Presairo's Help page... which didn't do a thing.
So, I followed some advice taken by another user on here (original link: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=135250).
I went to the following webpage (http://www.omegadrivers.net/) and got one of these "omega drivers" for my NVidea card. Simply clicked on XP, downloaded the file, and installed it, rebooted, and now...
NO MORE BLACK MAP. Damn, it's about time. I hope you all get this problem fixed too. I saw ATI Radeon options there too, so hopefully you can all fix the black map problem too.
Once fixed, my game plays smoothly (so far, so good). The leaders seem to be animating correctly, I can zoom in and out no problem, game seems to go at a good speed. I am happy.
edit: I also used the Quality settings. I am running on a Presario R3000 with all the required specs.
