Strange problem, though. The Athlon 64 supposedly runs all old applications flawlessly.

The "processor not supported" error isn't specific to the Athlon 64. It occurs on all processors (Intel or otherwise) sold in the past few years. My guess is that SMAC/SMAX has a routine to identify incompatible processors, but mis-identifies compatible ones as well.

Change it to

Worked like a charm, greatly appreciated.

New problem: I am in the middle of a game, and it just hangs. Fortunately I can shut it down by bringing up the task manager, but why the heck does it hang? I tried running it in Windows 98 compatibility mode - no joy.
Will applying the XP patch help? I have no problems starting the game anymore...

This gamer also was using a system with an Athlon CPU. I wonder if that's a factor?
Mine's Athlon 64 though.

Further investigation shows that when my game freezes, there is no sound. Also, it always freezes at the same place (after I bomb a road).

Okay, I think I know what it is. The game gets crashed by a bug.
Is it the one where Alien Crossfire links two base as one. In my case I have just disbanded one of them. So now I have units sitting out in the middle of nowhere
Is there a fix for this?

I'm not familiar with that bug. Can you post a save file to see if it reproduces on other systems?
