Installed Deluxe patch. I am not very PC savvy. Had a friend broadband download and burn it on a CD.

Game comes up as Deluxe, no problemo there.

Have one problem, and will need to find the latest TDM Modpack should I get it solved. The problem is that the game has gone glacial on me! I doubt I have MP3 on my Pentium III-733, so I turned off sound and also effects noises. Turning off those sounds eliminated the glacial bit during setup. The turns themselves go well, however, the game chokes at the end of each turn leaving my PC studying its navel for about 5 or more minutes between turns. It is not playable that way.

Would deleting SEIV completely then installing from my very old original SEIV disk and then patching again help?

Ideas anyone?

Hellllppp!
