I've encountered a really annoying problem...
When I start up civilization3.exe the game starts, screen turns black, and then remains that way. I can start a new game, and hear in my speakers that the game is running, the screen is just pure black...
I've tried everything that ina-support thing says, setting resolution down, setting acceleration down, turning directx off, shutting down antivirus and messaging programs... none of these things helped.
Right from the start civ3 could play, but this problem came with the second patch I think. I deleted it then, so now I wanted to try again, installed all over, and now even in standard 1.00 the problem is still there, which indicates that the problem isn't the patches...
my system:
366 mhz intel celeron
16 mb voodoo banshee
64 mb ram
10 gb harddrive
windows 98 first edition
Could it help to update the opengl-drivers? (they haven't changed since I last checked for a new version)
Also, I have the newest 3dfx drivers for my banshee card.
any ideas on how to solve this problem?
