I used to be able to play Civilization IV and Civilization IV: Warlords with full graphics. I recently uninstalled for space on my computer and I then installed them again. Last night, I was trying to play, and after choosing my civilization and first seeing the stars of the "In the beginning" video, I get the following error:
I then click "OK" and see a new error that tells me that I have a runtime error and that Windows needs to shut down the program.
Note: This error occurs in standard games, mods, and scenarios in both Warlords and Vanilla.
I've already tried installing driver updates, it didn't work, and some of them didn't seem to be able to find the driver on my computer.
Okay, computer information:
So does anyone know of a solution to this problem? Any help I could get on this would be great.
