    BtS says that my machine does not meet minimum spec... bull

    Mine does that too and it's obviously good enough. I guess whatever built-in scannning software BTS uses is now so far out of date it doesn't recognize new advances like quad and hex core and so defaults to "under-spec." I Just crank everything up to max and I've not had any issues...

I'll post the contents...

    Problem editing Civilization.ini file (Win7 64)

    Hey, thanks for the reply. I've just tried a clean install with no compatability mode - I have already changed install directory as I read the 'how to' on the forum. Definately the correct ini file too. Since the game seems to be running ok, I'll just have to deal with it, but I'd love to...

    Problem editing Civilization.ini file (Win7 64)
