Game crashes when trying to create maps bigger than "small"

[Gwynbleidd]

Hi everybody.
I just instaled the game, and everything works nice, but, after some annoying comp crashes, I realized that when I try to create a map bigger than "small", the game crashes. Sometimes I get the blue screen, and sometimes it just becomes extremely laggy. Looks like it should be an out-of-memory problem, but my computer is sort of new so it should run with no problems at all...
Any ideas? Thanks everybody!

I was having horrendous problems when playing on a standard size map... continuous CTDs and computer reboots were becoming an every turn event. I tried a small size map and so far I've haven't crashed yet. Hopefully they'll get this fixed soon because small maps are well... small.

Knew I spoke to soon, once the game gets going it starts crashing again. Yippie!

I have the same problem, except mine doesnt crash it just doesnt do anything. i think it might be the memory on my computer too. i got an error today that my comp was low on virtual memory, but i got that a lot on civ 3 (on a different computer) and the game played fine.
