You should try it - perhaps it works with your version too!?

Ok, I will.

And use windows compression on that big phat biatch, it will reduce file size to 708 KB

EDIT

NVM works. Now, to see why... this works on CD version... I have an idea of why already, but need to be sure

Just out of curiosity, do you mind saying what you did to make this image?

Ahh, good ole buggy safesh!t.

Its now confused since I was mounting a full CD image before, and now am mounting a DVD image. Seems to have confused it, (crash due to bad decrypt key) and now I need to reinstall since the exe is corrupted.

So, CIV4 CD users, use the image at your own risk.

Pls forgive my 'n00bness'. How do I get this 'window compression' thingie?

It's obviously not the zipping...
