My CD really looks like crap

[Dis]

actually I do have a second drive (CD-r)

I think civ3 is too memory intensive to use that. Well maybe not. But I cannot use the default windows cd player (a small program that did not interfere with civ2's speed) because I no longer have the direct line from my cd-rom to my sound card. I have to use software to send the appropiate info.

mp3's might be more viable, but I still have to use a program to run them.

Problem is that Civ3 is such a memory and resource hog, you're going to slow down your late-game even worse if you're trying to decode MP3's in the background.
