This topic has been touched on previously, but now that the rendering issue has been resolved I thought it might be a good time to bring it up again.
Civ4 loads very well. The intro movies play, and the opening menus work correctly. When I (and several other people) enter a game, however, we only get about 5 frames per second. The entire interface is extremely laggy. Keyboard and mouse commands are delayed by quite a bit in response. If you zoom out to a level where units are not visible, the framerate goes to a fully playable level.
Those of us with this problem are running above the minimum specifications, several people above the recommended as well. We have turned our graphics to the absolute minimum settings, tried every resolution, disabled sound, and updated both graphics and sound card drivers to the newest releases. None of these changes has any effect on gameplay.
Here is a link to the thread in which we have been discussing the problem: Lagged Gameplay
We have discussed the numerous symptoms of the problem quite thoroughly, tried several solutions, and reported our system configurations.
Any help in solving this issue would be appreciated. Thank you.
