{Installation Guide}

Recommended installation:

1. Use the default path or enter the drive letter and the directory to which
   you would like Sid Meier's Civilization II to be installed.

2. Choose the Custom Option from the installation menu and select the game
   features that you would like installed to your hard drive. (You MUST
   select "Required Game Files" in order to be able to play).

3. After the game is installed Microsoft's WinG and Indeo Video Interactive
   will be installed to your computer. These are necessary in order for the
   game to function properly.

Notes:
   - If you wish to hear sound effects during the game, Recommended Game Files
     must be selected in the custom install menu options. ("Play from CD" is
     not supported for this option).
   - In order to have the Civilopedia active in the game, Civilopedia must be
     selected in the custom install menu options. ("Play from CD" is not
     supported for this option).
   - Most of the multimedia files for Civilization II are located on the CD ROM in
     the Video subdirectory under civ2 ( d:\civ2\video ) and the Kings subdirectory
     under civ2 ( d:\civ2\kings ). If you wish to copy these files to your harddrive, 
     create two subdirectories under civ2 ( c:\mps\civ2\video ) and  ( c:\mps\civ2\kings ).
     Copy all the files in the Video subdirectory of the Civilization II CD to the 
     Video subdirectory that you just created and all the files in the Kings subdirectory
      of the Civilization II CD to the Kings subdirectory that you just created.

{Troubleshooting}

1. 'General Protection Fault' - Your video driver may be old. Get a new video
    driver from your video card maker or try one of the standard windows video
    drivers.
