hi, i had reinstalled windows xp than civ v but when i start the game it freezes why? what was my fault? i already installed framework4.0 and dx what does it wants from me? please help:sad:
 
Did you update your graphics drivers? Are you trying to play on a really huge map with lots of civs (that might be too much for your comp to handle, and no I'm not basing that off you using XP).
 
8600m gt, c2d 2.2, 2gb ram

i was able to play civ 4 before i reinstalled xp.

tried 2 nvidia drivers, both worked fine with total war m2.
 
Mmhh...graphic drivers are up to date?
With which monitor resolution do you play?
Did you try to start in windowed mode?

i tried all the regular settings which were working 5 days before. 1280x800. i hadnt tried windowed mode.

right now i am updating windows for the first time so i will write the results after it all finishes.

one more thing game freezes when i click the journey begins not on the menu.

thanks for all help
 
nothing changes if i skip intro game crushes afteri click the journey begins, if i watch the intro game closes itself after i watch intro and returnes to windows.
