Okay, so I got Civilization IV complete edition today. It is supposed to have the original, Warlords, Beyond the Sword, and Colonization. Okay, I got it installed, and tripple checked that the D630 meets the specs required, which it does. But what I have an issue with is that when I start the game up, it only starts colonization. I don't want to play that pack, so how can I get teh original game up?
I have looked in the installed programs list and do not see anything listed, but there is a folder in C:/wolfeking/documents/Mygames/SidMeiersCivilizationIV so it is installed.
 
Does it show up in your library? Not sure if this is the issue but note that it will show up two of each game in your library. That's because it's got a MAC and PC version. Did you install CivIV then Warlords then Beyond the Sword in that order?
 
it came as a complete set DVD. I just inserted it and clicked install. It installed one ~3,5 GB program (the original I assume) then it installed Colonization. I did not see any windows come up for the rest.

And library? Am I missing something? I am on Vista 32 but if that matters.
 
Don't think Vista has 'libraries' - that's something which MS introduced in Windows 7 I think.
 
derp. I found it, spark of genius. It was under games on the start menu, its all there. :( I should have thought of that earlier.
But any ideas why it is not on the "all programs" list? should not every program on the computer be there?

Click to expand...
From my experience games do not always go onto the All Programs list - usually they just have a shortcut in the Games folder. Kinda annoying I know, but...
 
I have never had one not go in the list before that I can remember. I guess it all depends on the game I guess.
