Click on 'Load Game' and it quits... Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Hi,

Looking for some help. Been playing Civ III for a while, and loaded some new game that installed Directx 8.1, and now I can't get Civ III to work (that lame-ass game didn't work, either).

Does anyone know of problems with Civ III & Directx 8.1? Anyone know how I can downgrade to 8.0a?

Thanks!


joe

Oh, I meant to add that the intro movie comes up fine, as does the New Game (initial screen only), Hall of Fame, Preferences, and Audio Preferences, but the Credits come up all jarbled. Don' t know if that helps or not....

Thanks again!

Win 2k. I've uninstalled and re-installed the game several times to no avail. ANd I've tried the latest patch, too.

Directx 8.1 may be a red-herring for all I know.

Thanks for the help!

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Did that, too. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

You can uninstall directx and goto someplace like download.com to find 8.0a.
