Obviously you've never played an MMORPG...

Settle your Great scientist in cities that have universities and libraries. Make sure you set your research (for that city) to science and just don't lose the GP to a spy. I try to settle a city with at least 2 mountains so I can use workshops, mines and factories to boost production once The...

Turn off my virtual memory? Huh? I've downloaded every update there is. I've had this crash before and after I downloaded SP3 so I'm pretty sure that isn't the issue. Start>Run>msconfig (cleared every startup in the log) Start>Run>%temp% (cleared all possible temp files [(as per...

I take it I'm not going to receive any further insight, seeing as I've been the only person who has posted the last 5x.... Bought 2 new 1GB memory sticks, still crashing.

Now I'm getting BSoD's I've never even seen before... this is bringing me to tears. I'm 2 video cards in and still having issues, etf is going on?

that only lasted a few hours... crash #1 now on a new card. (win32k.sys) Crashed with GeForce 7600GT using: #1 stick of 1 GB RAM installed only #2 stick of 1 GB RAM installed only #1 stick and #2 stick of RAM (2GB) installed Crashed with GeForce 8500 using: #1 stick and #2 stick of RAM...

:badcomp: ...sigh So I went from very my cool looking Gigabyte 7600 GT to a weenie looking, miniscule fan using Verto 8500 and viola... problem solved. How pathetic does this card look?

That's all that came up while trying to get through my friggin game (which I'm at about 65% and kickin ass, less the crashes). If it is a memory issue it has to be a video card then, because I have taken out my RAM and run the game on each stick of 1GB and it crashed both times... so the only...

2K told me to tryn nwer drivers for my sound card, I had the most recent ones (from 2005...) Even tried an Audigy driver (I have a SoundBlaster Live! 24 bit) and it didn't work, I had no sound at all with that Audigy driver. 2K's reply: Tried those security updates but I'm now running SP3...

Updated the video driver (didn't do anything) Updated - Did a deductive reasoning test and the problem still persists. Took out 1 stick of RAM (1GB), and it crashed. Swapped it with the other RAM chip, still crashed. Only this game and only this program crashes. I do not see how this...

Nope, I checked and even though my drivers were 4 months old I DL'd and installed the May 2008 series 7 drivers http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_175.16_whql.html and not 4 secs after the map loaded... *ZAP* PC rebooted. I have lots of games on this PC (FFXI, WoW, CoD4, World in Conflict)...

Nope, CPU fan at almost 32k RPM, GPU fan at 675 RPM (52° C), case fan RPM. This is the only program I have ever run in 2 years that causes anything at all to crash. It has to be a software setting, not my hardware. For no point other than to show my pretty video card:

The game is patched up to 1.74 and doesn't have Warlords nor BtS installed. It crashes at random times, for instance, yesterday I got 3 hours of gameplay in but I'm at 1934AD and I'm crashing every other turn. I've had this game for 2 years now and gave up on it once but now that Revolutions...

did Civ III crash on multiple systems right out the box just like Civ IV does? Possibly Firaxis sees what a clusterph*@k they made with Civ IV and are hoping to turn things around with Civ V?
