Constantly Crashes

I just purchased CTPII, and I have not been able to play it yet. I can't get throuh one turn. I move my settler, and when I hit End of Turn, I get an invalid page fault error and get bounced out to the desktop. I've read the posts, and I haven't come across anything that could help. I have a 700 MHZ Athlon, 128 M RAM, and a basic 8M ATI video board. The movie at the beginning runs fine. I have disabled all animations. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

I finally got this game to work. I wanted to post my solution in case it could help others who were having the same problem. I think it's ridiculous that I have to go through this to play a game. I still think the game was a rush job. I was able to get the game to play by adjusting the audio acceleration to basic. This is done in Control Panel - Multimedia - Advanced Settings. Drag the acceleration bar to the second notch from the left. Also make sure there are no programs running in the background.
