        Sounds like something is awry with Windows? What version are you running?

          Try right clicking the executable (civiv.exe or somesuch); and select properties. There should be a "run as administrator" option.
          No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

            Alternately (having just checked my computer), you could right click the shortcut on the menu bar and choose "run as administrator" that way.

                    It sounds like you are experiencing an issue with your computer's administrator privileges when attempting to play CIV 4. It's possible that there may be some sort of system setting or permission that needs to be adjusted in order to grant you the necessary access to run the game. https://www.stpaulguttercleaner.com/

                    One thing you could try is right-clicking on the game's icon and selecting "Run as administrator." This will temporarily elevate your privileges and may allow the game to run.

                        Have you heard if the administrator has addressed the issue yet? It's been on my mind and I'm curious to know if there's been any progress. Can you update me on this? odd jobs
