Help with Civilization 4 complete

[sull]

I bought civilization 4 complete and it installed fine but i can't play any warlords scenarios or play colonization, only beyond the sword. Can this be fixed or is this how the game is supposed to be?

Running on windows 7

Welcome to CFC!

What happens when you try to play the other games?

Well, whenever i put the disk in theres only one autoplay option and that always brings me to beyond the sword.

I'm not an expert with computers so i might be missing something but i ve done a lot of searching and cannot find a solution

The game usually fails to install the shortcuts to the other games, but in such cases it usually only plays colonisation. Search on your hard drive for the folder where the game is installed and create your own shortcuts. If it will play BTS then the Civ 4 at least must be installed as BTS is an expansion pack to that and will not run without it.

You will find Warlords and BTS as subfolders to the main Civilization 4 folder, I think (I don't personally have it) that Colonisation is in another folder in the Firaxis games folder.

To access your games in Windows 7, just hit your start button (windows logo) and select Games and all your games will be there. You should need your CD at all.

Good luck

i found out how to get warlords started but i still dont know how to start colonization.

Any help?

Colonization should be in your games menu as well, otherwise you may have declined to installing with Civ IV, in which case, you will have to reinstall from CD.
