Of course there is no problem. Firaxis have already answered questions on this and have stated that it runs fine on Windows 2000 where they did a lot of the programming and work on producing the game, that the same applies to Windows XP and of course no problems whatsoever with the Windows 9x line of operating systems (although now effectively dead)

IIRC, there was a thread by a fellow who had the game and had loaded it on two OSs, one being ME and the other 2000 I think, and he said it ran better on ME. I recall there was lots not any scientific research on which OS worked better here, he just sort of made the comment in passing. It sounds like it will run fine on ME.

Right so you're saying it works on
Windows 9x
Windows 2000
Windows XP
None of them are Windows ME........

....Pissing....you....off....... Was you computer capable of running it properly? And did you update your drivers? How much memory do you have?
If you do/have the stuff above, it should work perfectly.

Not that it matters now, but I have a P4 1.7Ghz, 512MB RAM, 78GB HD, GeForce3 64MB, blady blady bla. My drivers were all up to date, everything was fine. I had compatability issues with some older games and the simplest solution was to revert to the universally recognised OS - Win98!

"Dumbass", in case you don't know, is considered an insult. You have now been warned RodLosAngeles.

Thanks, Wittlich. I just didn't have the patience to spell it out.

I am sure the following is entirely unnecessary.
This is preciously the problem with many pro-M$er's, that's why I think my signature is so appropriate.
It's never M$'s fault, even when it can't run certain "critical applications."
