Your PTW cd is the drive I take it

( Edit the no cd part out of your post, or it will be closed)

[meltedorange]

yeah the cd is in the drive. The PTW cd. Its there. and thanks for the tip there haha.

[notyoueither]

In the CD ROM? Installed from there? Fresh install?

[meltedorange]

The PTW cd is in the CD ROM. I just did a fresh install and ran the game without a problem. I patched it and now I get the insert disc prompt.

[notyoueither]

And you are stuck with that? You installed from the CD ROM?

[meltedorange]

yeup. I kind of want to just play unpatched single player but i mean i got it to play multi and unpatched kept crashing.

[notyoueither]

Arggg. I wish they could get that right. It isn't a burner or DVD? There should be no problem.

Unfortunately, you may have to contact Infogrames and wait for a no cd fix.

Or, do you know someone with extra equipment? Try a different CD ROM drive.

So i geuss its single player for now

Try to start it up with the original Civ3 disk in and see if that works

I've read that is a common problem with the warz version also.

Is your CD-ROM drive old?

I have a belief concerning installing a new game when there is already a patch avialable for it...

First install the PTW game (make sure you already have Civ3 installed).

Then start a single player PTW game. Build your first city, then EXIT the game.

Now install the PTW Patch. Then try lauching the game again.

Let us know if this works.

does not work
