So my dad let me borrow his copy of Civ IV: Complete Edition a couple of months ago, and I installed it on my 2006 HP running Windows XP. It ran at a good speed for a few weeks, and then all of a sudden it started running EXTREMELY slow, like if one of the leaders wanted to talk to me it would be about 45 seconds between hearing his theme music and actually seeing his face, and I couldn't do anything except wait during that time. It was frustrating. Today I played and it was REALLY slow again, but later it picked up, though it was still slower than it should have been. I don't know if the issue is my processor or what, but I don't think so since it worked fine on the exact same computer a few weeks ago. I have downloaded a lot of files since I last played Civ, though I deleted some unnecessary files to make up for it and it ran slow before I downloaded the files. Please help!!
