Every once in while (regularly enough to be annoying) Civilization III will just freeze; without provocation or warning it just stops. It's up-to-date and everything - I can't figure out what's wrong - any ideas?
yep there's autosaves (depending on your place in time, it's every couple of turns), so they're helpful when this happens... I don't have the crashing problem, i'm afraid, have you updated to the latest patches? i think it's several months old, but if you newly installed from a CD, you need to apply it-- will speed it up, too.
