The Civ 3 Club

[CommandoBob]

When I first played Civ3 PTW, it was on a PII 300MHz machine. Civ3 vanilla would run on a 300 MHz; PTW needed at least 400MHz.

So what happened?

I could play for about an hour or so and the computer would crash.

So I played on my son's P4 until he took it off to school with him.

Back to Civ II.

Then the motherboard died and I upgraded to PII 500MHz. After making sure everything worked, it took six weeks to have 'Eureka!' moment and reinstall PTW.

Which is where I am today.

I will be playing Civ3 for rather long time.

I'll buy an Radeon X800 for an upgrade though. I got an Athlon 2400+ and 512 MbRam, but my Nvidea 5200 FX won't do it I'm affraid

All my other specs are more then adequate (AMD 1.7Ghz, 1.3 Gig of RAM), but my Video Card might not be up to par, its only a nVidia GeForce4 64 Mb. I am kinda hoping that I don't have to upgrade that, but, well, I guess I should. Although, with school, I really lack the time to play Civ4. Plus I have to switch over to evil Windows from Linux to play it, and that is, well, I hate doing that, since Windows sucks compared to anything else.
