I got a Samsung NC10 and am trying to run Civ 3. Sid Meier's Pirates! (the new one) runs fine and I'm guessing it's more than capable of running Civ 3, however I can't get it to run. I shared my CD drive from my desktop to install it but I was having trouble making an image file with my disks so I decided to just spend 5 bucks and get it on steam. Well now that I have it installed from steam, it still won't run, it won't even load it just pulls up the steam message "preparing to launch game" and then it closes and nothing comes up.
I've been searching all over for why this won't work, apparently it's some sort of incompatibility problem. I was reading that someone contacted support and was told to run it in compatibility mode with windows 98, however Steam won't allow me to launch the program in compatibility mode. Anybody have any ideas?
