    Why is it so important that you found a religion?

    I conducted an experiment where I didnt research any of the religious techs and waited as long as possible to convert to a religion. The result was most civs did not like me much at all except for Americans because I converted to catholic which is what Washington was. I was playing Russia. Early...

    i just dont seem to get enough gold

    Early in the game adjust your research percentage at the top left of the screen when u are low on money. As you move on and develop you will make more money and be able to increase it up to whatever makes u comfortable.

Sometimes the AI spreads his religion in my civ but it doesnt seem to matter what religions I have I always come out on top as long as I...

    Locks up between 2-5 minutes into game

    Ok I tried DirectX Eradicator but its not compatible with Winxp SP2 so I used a different program. The program I used uses commands in winxp safe mode to manually replace all the Dx files with the original Dx files that are on the SP2 CD or from the I386 folder for the SP2 installation files...
