Demo Bug

[Worthy]

My friend loaded the Demo and when he tries to play the game he gets an error message that the movies were not properly loaded or something like that. Any ideas? I want to get him hooked on it. I had him get the download from HERE: http://www.gamershell.com/download_11624.shtml

Rather then post a new thread on demo bugs i'll post my problem here..

Shortly after installing the demo, from fileplanet, and then playing the demo I got an unknown hard error.. I had to do a reboot.. The next day I got the same error while playing AoW 2 and upon rebooting I received the following UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME

I went to windows support and found an error document about this problem with several fixes mine was the corrupted mbr (sp) which required running chkdsk /r from the window recovery console and 6 hours of down time..

After I finished all that I spent another several hours making sure my HD wasnt failing by using WD diagonsitic disk..

My system is behind clean power APC Back ups XS 1000 there is a suggestion at MS to remove any new hardware or software after such a problem but I wonder was it going from 9.0b to c or the demo

Please stop forcing us to up grade to the latest and greatest directx many times this just ruins systems and it's not truly even needed since most computers out there today can't use most of the new features, if any at all, it adds..

I have several messages pop up when I get a Great Scientist, relating to music. I don't know what that means and why he is so cheerful?
A catapult (in battle) mentions the lack of cannon noise.
I can increase my GPT by changing the research slider if I have the culture slider tech. (forgot name)
These errors are not important as I will get the game soon.

I once got a Time Victory message and the option to continue the game, it froze when I clicked. I think I need to take or raze all four enemy cities that destroys their civ to get it.
