1.7.4 Problem

[Ziplety]

The problem I'm having is that my Civ 4 doesn't start up after I have patched it to 1.7.4 and I have no idea why. I get no error message when this happens, it just doesn't load up at all. Any help will be greatful.

Welcome to CFC
please open your civilizationIV.ini and set everything with log in its name to 1, then start the game when it does not start please zip everything in your my games/Sid Meier's Civilization 4/logs directory and upload it here
Before that I would try reapplying the 1.74 patch, you can download it from here if you have not done already. Also you need the newest DirectX9c in any case, which you can get from Microsoft.
