Anything new? I don't see any other bug reports like this, so I am starting to think the game isn't compatible with Dual Cores....am I the only one with a Dual Core system? O_o

Try to redownload it, it's probably been corrupted somehow. I have tried dominions on a core 2 duo without any trouble.

Also listen to Arralen and check your file with md5sum. If it isn't the same then the download was no good.

I'm running a dual core AMD 4200X AM2_Socket CPU with Dominions3 and it runs without any problems. It generates super large maps really fast too.

Have you tried clean booting your system before starting. Usually disabling anti-virus services helps too.

Well that is interesting. For the record: You need to download the demo from IE, not Firefox....(at least, that is what worked for me).

I downloaded the demo using Firefox with no problems. It is almost certainly what Arralen said: your first download was simply corrupted. Re-downloading with Firefox would likely have fixed it as well.
