All problems seem to be installing the Directx, i can install the game sucessfully.
I already have DirectX 9.0c installed on my computer, and i have no problems when playing other games that require it however i cannot seem to play Civ4. When installing the game, it attempts to install DirectX 9.0c (most recent) however this is where i begin top get problems. I click agree and then next, for about 5 seconds it is attempting to copy files and then i get a message saying that it hasn't not been tested for configuration with windows. I then click ok and it fails, telling me the source of my problems should be in the two logs i will list below.
