When I first bought the game I couldn't get it to work for more then 5-10 minutes at a time. I upgraded my vid card and now the game runs okay with a few issues and the occaision reboot crash.
First, when I start the game the main menu appears but the background is this odd blue color and some of the planetary lights show up.
Second, when I start a game the graphics for type of planet don't show up and all I see is black. Also when I select the type of planet it is black when standard is selected but shows the planet for the other sizes.
Third, when I got to selecte a leader I can see the leaders fine but the background for each one is solid red, this continues in the game itself when I am talking to other leaders.
Fourth, when I am starting a game the little formation of the earth movie is balck, but the Nimoy narration still plays.
Finally, when playing a game on a standard size map the mini-map is black and I cannot see anything on it. I do not know if this goes for the other size maps as well but it didn't show up on a large world either.
My system specs:
AMD Athlon 1.33
768 MB rams
GeForce 660 GT 128
Windows XP SP2
30 GB free HD sapce.
So has anyone else had these issues and/or have any solutions that might help. I don't think it is my copy because I didn't have these issues with the old vid card the game just wouldn't run/work 90% of the time.
