Sorry for the delays...my 2002 Motherboard decided that it was ready to be retired, so 3 days of shopping & $1100 later, I'll be installing Civ III again (once I get the whole thing put together)...
DD04 - Clash of the Titans (SID)

Hardware all configured and connected...everything seems to be working...Windows 7 is a bit different than Windows XP...next up is Windows Office & Civilization III & IV + expansions

Ok all of the CIV programs are installed...I'll hookup by old HD to my son's computer and start moving save files...with luck playing tonight, if not over the weekend for sure.

Having problems getting the old file to load...(same issues with other old saves)...anyone know if Civ Complete saves are different than Civ Conquest saves?

As far as I know, they are the same. What you might be having problems with is permissions. Make sure you have your .sav files opened with your new install and that your user is given full permission on the files.
It shouldn't be a big deal for Soul Warrior to shoot you a new copy of the save...

I reloaded the games from the other HD and I can see them with Windows Explorer, but CIV can't find them to open the SAV file...I'm going to get the file again tomorrow from my office PC and try loading from that.

I will resend the latest file. Maybe it helps.

Sorry Calis, gps'd to you too!

Your problem is Windows 7... Check out this. (The path probably needs to be adjusted slightly in order to account for the different installation directory of Civ3 Complete vs the original Conquest.)

I've IM'd & e-mailed with Cyc quite a bit this week and don't believe that even with cooperation of the three other players (against our earlier agreement BTW) that we can beat Calis, so I am declaring Calis the winner, congratulations Mighty Calis for a well played victory.
On a new note, is there any desire to start a new SID PBEM against the AI. Using a medium sized (last one was a very large) map with limited rules modifications. I learned quite a bit from this one and would like to put some of that to use.
On the note of availability, as of August 1st, I'll either be unemployed or telecommuting to Nashville (my company is relocting), so I will be able to put out the 24 hour turnaround I did in the early stages of this game.

Congratulations on the win, Calis. 
I'd be interested in a PBEM vs. a Sid AI like the game that just finished.
