Game Crashes

[notgr82002]

I have had Civlization CTP (1.2) for some time and tried to install it on my blindingly fast PIII 667 w/256MB RAM and an ATI 128MB Radeon Video Card.....

My substandard machine aside.. It installs just fine (max option), but when I try to run the game it starts to load (about 5 seconds worth) then I get an error.

Abnormal Termination : CRC 09BB-840B....

I have tried rebooting, reinstalling (max and Min) etc.

Any help out there?

Update... I checked the Activision site and found the issue listed, but I am still stuck.

I have updated my sound and video drivers, switched my video mode to 640 x 480 and closed all other apps... still get the same error...

What are you all running on that I seem to be unique?

Any help or suggestions would be apprecieated... I bought CivIII, but was greatly dissapointed... I want CTP back!

Thanks,

Im running a gig of ram. AMD64 Bit processor Radeon X800 Pro 256 Graphics Card and XP OS

I play everyday and love it

I would simply suggest uninstalliung, clean the disc off and then try again.

Good luck

if you get going let me know and we can have a pbem match
