Reinstalled Windows in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Hi I've recently reinstalled windows. Just downloaded Gal Civ II and installed but when I try to open / play the game it says the product is validated but i have an incorrect serial. I got the serial from the email sent to me from stardock containing all my serials etc. Any ideas on how i can get the game to work? Cheers

Just downloaded + installed the codec you linked to but the game still doesn't work with sound, oh well I guess I'll get by without for the time being, cheers for helping. I think i'd better go look at the strats part of this site asap!

Hey Eradicu cheers for the reply, okay I tried the steps you listed apart from the sound codec at Stardock as I couldn't find it... anyway at one point the intro movie started playing and I got some sound through but it froze around1 or 2 seconds in, i got to see a kinda gig blue cirlce shape but then as i said it froze. Now I've renamed intro and sf_intro files and the game opens up to a screen. It has a space station? in the top left corner of the screen, Gal. Civ. logo in top right

Hi, just bought / downloaded the game from star dock and can't get it to run... at the first the debug file said something about assert error in file memman??? but looking now after trying again it doesn't say anything about any errors?

Cheers Just tried again and the last couple of lines from that debug file reads: Debug M
