Help me plase to play multiplayer! Suffering from ads?

I posted a message in theHelp section but later realized that this one would probably be more suited to find some help.

The thing is that I have installed civ2 MGE in my PC (PIII 800, 128 SDRAM). The installation seemed to be fine. However, when I double-click on the desktop icon, a pop-up box appears stating: GETFRAME: ICDecompressEx returned -3

The box cannot be closed no matter how many times you click on the OK button and the game never starts.

Help me please! I am really desperate. I tried to contact MPS and of course they have ignored me. You guys are my last chance!

Delete it all and try installing it again. That usually fixes most problems.

Suffering from ads?

So.. after cycling you took up civ??

The last response may hold the answer.MGE doesn't like a certain version of a certain OS.

if you install in a folder, other than the default, the patch won't work...maybe thats a potential problem too?

Now, how can I know if my w98 version is a cursed one?


"So.. after cycling you took up civ??"

You might say so I retired a bit before civ hit the shelves.
