I updated the video driver and it works now, thanks!!!

OK, I posted the file in the downloads section. But if you have any trouble with it, email me at lgrupido@traveladventures.com and I'll email it back to you.

The attached save file GPFs for me every time I go to the next turn. You only have to play for a few seconds. Say Yes to have the leader join, then say thank you. Then it will GPF. This is the original save file - just remove the .txt extension. Contact me at...

This is a new install, from the CD that I got for Christmas. No Mods. No patches. (Not that any exist!) All you have to do is play from the saved position. The very next turn GPFs every time for me. I will post the file in the downloads section right now.

I am at a point in my game where when I end my turn, the next turn the computer drops to the blue screen of death. I have a save at just before the offending turn. Other than that, things worked pretty well. I can run Civ IV BTS just fine. This is the second game this has happened to...

I have searched the forums and did not see this one. My city is stuck at a population of 5. Even though I have enough food to grow farther, the city will not go beyond 5. The extra food seems to be just disapearing. I have even tried starving the city a little and trying to get past it...

I fixed the problem. I had already applied the latest updated to video, audio, and system BIOS. After searching the forum even more, I found a reference to an update to a CD Rom drive. I searched for an update to my DVD player, and found a BIOS update for my DVD drive. The update said that...

I have a Dell Latitude D820 with the following specs from DX Diag. (Edited for length) Could someone please try to explain to me why I can't load the game? I actually was able to get into the game a couple of times, but usually it just sits at the loading screen until it GPFs. I have all...

I called Firaxis tech support. They say that my video card will not run the game despite the fact that it has 512 mb on it. It is not strong enough to support some of the graphics formats the game uses. I have a nvidia quadro NVAS 120M, based on the GEforce Go7400 chipset. I have a...

Here is what I have done so far: I have reinstalled Direct X from the CD I have updated graphics and sound drivers and updated the bios. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game several times. I have applied the latest patch. I can not even get into the game. I have read all...

I reinstalled Direct X and I reinstalled the game. I still can't even load it. The game has actually loaded several times, but now I can't get it to load at all. Right now, several of the directories and the ini file are showing up as shortcuts instead of as files. Is that because I have...

When I originally installed the software, it installed the directX itself. Since then I have reinstalled several times and it hasn't wanted to reinstall it. I will try reinstalling the direct x on the CD manually. I have noted, however, that it's not just the tutorial, sometimes the...

I have installed the game (3 times now) and tried different solutions I have found on the forum. (Updated all drivers, and applied latest patch) I can start the game just fine after install. Once started I can navigate around the menus and such. However, I want to run the tutorial. When I...
