I'm having trouble with the game Civ 4:Beyond the Sword. I can run the basic Civ IV game on my Laptop while BtS can't even get loaded.Whenever I run btS , screen goes black and nothing happens.I checked my Windows event log it says
"A request to disable the Desktop Window Manager was made by process (Sid Meier's Civilization 4 : Beyond The Sword)" Event ID 9010
"The Desktop Window Manager was unable to start because composition was disabled by a running application" Event ID 9013
It displays source as Desktop Windows Manager
I always run the game as Admin with all the permissions
My sys. config. is
Win 7 Home Basic SP I 64 Bit
P6200 Dual Core without separate Graphics hardware
2 GB RAM
Compaq Presario CQ42 14 inch Notebook
I can run Civ 4 basic game and also Civ V:Gods & Kings perfectly, hence there are no issues with my drivers or hardware,I have the latest patch 3.19 installed for BtS
