I just bought CIV 3 the other day and installed it and everything was going fine until i found out the game wasn't gonna play. I click on the desktop icon for CIV 3 and the cd is in the drive so it starts up and the splash screen comes up for CIV 3 and then like three seconds later the splash screen just closes and the game does nothing. And it does that every single time. I updated to the new 1.16f version patch. I have windows ME on my computer. I have an Intel 810 graphics controller. I have 400 RAM. I have my resolution set to 1024x768. I have a Pentium 3 processor with 800 mhz. I play Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Ghost Recon and alot of other new games i have perfectly on my system without any trouble. Two days ago i files a report stating my problem to the help place on the CIV 3 home site. I havn't gotten anything back from them yet. I have tried to uninstall my Adaptec CD burner from my computer. I cannot get this game to run. Please Help!!!!

This might be the known patch/installation bug. Did you run the game once before installing the patch, or did you have this problem out of the box? If it's the former you need to:
Install the game
Reboot
Run the game
Install the patch
Reboot
Run the game
If it's the latter, I would try their tech support number and give them the error message.
