Hmmm... Well here's a list of things you can tell me to help.
What version of Windows are you using? Did you try installing the 2.42 patch over the clean installation of Civ 2 (I know it seems redundant, but whatever works)? Civ 2 2.42 works fine when you play it? What country are you in? What country is your copy of Civ 2 from? Is it installed in English? You had the Civ 2 cd in the cd-rom drive when you tried to play?

I got a copy of MGE from somewhere else, so it doesn't matter, but I'm running Win 98 (my hard drive was formatted and Win 98 reinstalled less than a month ago) and Civ 2 works fine. I'm in Canada and run the game in English. I had the cd in the drive, as per instructions. I haven't tried installing the 2.42 patch over the cd version because the cd version claims to be 2.42 in the "Game Options" section. I'll try that, and report back on Friday.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Also, after trying to help some one for hours, sometimes if Civ 2 is installed in one directory and you delete and reinstall it for a clean copy you need to put it in a different directory. For example if your old copy of civ is installed at C:\mps\civ2\ you may need to change it to some thing else like C:\games\mps\civ2\. I don't know why this is, maybe something to do with the registry, but it worked in all the directories I have tried it in.
