original bug post : http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=135955
this is hardware and windows system bug.
the developers originaly uses unicode() function which converts stuffs into ascii code.
but because my windows is chinese version, its not in ascii code.
possible with hardware too, it uses unicode() function to get your sound card name. so if your sound card have some weird characters, it just get error
the bug will also occur when u have chose custom music folder, which contains illegal ascii characters
my fix is change the unicode() function into str(), and bang!! everything works!!!!
finaly an annoying bug gets squashed. hope this ease the bug fixing work for firaxis.
edit: ahh sorry should post in the bug forum, stiky please
