Question Load prob in win98

Wondering if somebody can help me out here.

I start a new game, huge map and everything is fine. Save/load is working fine, then when i hit around year 0, having 10-25 cities I can still load and save. Unless I quit civ3 completly and then restart it. Then the load dies at 57%, all the time.

I´ve tried...

Restart
Reinstall
New nvidea drivers
New DirectX
New Patch f116

My comp is a 900 thunderbird with 256mb ram and a geforce2, so that shouldn't be the problem.

Well... Problem solved.

I've used the no-cd-crack and it works, even the thought to be lost save games. Did another thing aswell added something to an ini-file, read it somewhere can't remember where though?

Anyway When I load now, the task manager says "program isn't responding", but if I wait 30 sec, it loads anyway

Can't load, stops at 57%

I've had the exact same problem with xp, but can't run the no cd crack I downloaded from gamecopyworld. it says the format is unknown or damaged. Do I need to reinstall the game for it to work, or is it more complecated than that. Glad to hear someone has overcome this problem that is driving me nuts.

To get the no-cd-crack to work you´ll have to install the v1.16patch first, then the crack.

The crack can be found if you look under civilization 3...
Called "Civilization 3 v1.07f [ENGLISH] No-CD/Fixed EXE"
