Okay. So. I bought GalCiv2 at Target today, came home, opened it, and amid tears of joy put it into my machine. Up pops a spiffy little "Instal, Readme" interface. I click install, and the program goes "Not responding" without even attempting an install.


WHAT DA FUCK?

Bear us home upon our shields
Lay coins across our brows and sound the bells
We're paying our fare on the river to Hell
And when our sons and mothers lay us upon the funeral pyre
Tell them we died Hellenic soldiers with our faces to the fire

System specs?
It's amazing how a family can be torn apart by something as simple as a pack of hungry wolves.

I have almost enough RAM. o.O I mean, I've allocated other empty files to act as RAM. So I should have more than enough space.

But everything else is hunky dory.

Am in contact with Stardock via e-mail.


I have the sinking feeling that my processor isn't as strong as it needs to be. :/ But still! Installation startup should at least begin, right?

What kind of processor do you have? I mean, this isn't a particularly hardware intensive game. :P

Exactally, that's why I'm confused. It has an Intel Celeron D 330 2.66 GHz processor. I don't know if that would work or not. .-.

Downloaded it from SDC, it must have been a bad disk.

Anyway, updated my drivers, and for some reason whenever I play a custom game, it freezes up, but will let me play campaign. Bah. I dont care. .-.
