When you browse the internet you see several tips:
– Install DirectX from the cd
– Install the latest patch from http://www.2kgames.com/civ4/downloads.htm
– Enable Direct Draw Acceleration in Start -> Run -> dxdiag -> Display tab (if not already enabled and if possible)
– Change the fullscreen option in the config file in the installation directory to 0 (windowed)
– Be sure you have the latest (graphic) drivers
– Run in compatibility mode (right mouse click on the shortcut -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Run this program in compatibility mode for: -> Windows XP (Service Pack 2)
Hope this will fix your problem! 🙂
