It seems to me a problem with hw that become too hot and restart the system (again and again until you use less intensive CPU / GPU software). It could also be a trouble with memory chip, that happens when you try to use a fault part, but it seems less credible that after a reset the memory use access the same chip cell looping endless.
Try http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php for free, and check if any temperature trouble arise during the game."We are reducing all the complexity of billions of people over 6000 years into a Civ box. Let me say: That's not only a PkZip effort....it's a real 'picture to Jpeg heavy loss in translation' kind of thing."

One thing you should bear in mind is that, with most modern Windows computers set to restart automatically in the event of a system error, it could just as easily be a problem with drivers.
Obviously, also make sure you have updated your Civ 4 installation to the latest version.O'Neill: I'm telling you Teal'c, if we don't find a way out of this soon, I'm gonna lose it.
Lose it. It means, Go crazy. Nuts. Insane. Bonzo. No longer in possession of one's faculties. Three fries short of a Happy Meal. WACKO!
