Heroray, I expect (I don't have the game yet) that it will help tremendously if you build a worker and start improving your terrain as soon as possible.

Regarding the second user thing, I have found that once you have created this second user it is also possible to run teh game from the primary user by means of the 'run as' property (right-click on the icon or the .exe). That is, provided the second user has a password. If it doesn't, it won't work.
Next I gave my primary user a password, but that did not help, I still can't run the game normally but I have to use 'run as'.

I'll ask about your problem, CIV is supposed to be compliant with the "windows for gaming" standard, so it shouldn't have a problem with your normal limited account. CS My normal account has admin rights, it's the new one that is limited!

Good news: the game runs on my newly created extra system user. It still won't run on my primary user though, not even after copying the My Games folder. So for now I am restricted to single-player. The error, apparently, is that somehow the My Documents folder of my primary user cannot be found. That should be easy to patch, right ...?

It appears that no My Games folder has been created.

It is above minimum specs.
Edit: I see now that there is conflicting info on this. The manual says that 256 MB is sufficient, while the readme.htm states that on Windows XP I need 512 MB.

All I get is this:
The number, 3980, differs between tries.
