I don't think Civilization I sport sounds. You would need to run the setup and activate PC speaker...

A lot of people find the sound coming from the PC speaker bloody annoying tough, so you know.

Hi all

I am surprised with your problem because it is exactly what happened when i used Civilisation with Windows XP.

But with the dosbox, it can use the false soundblaster and the game runs at a correct speed. Try it and tell us.

Civilisation is the best game (abandonware or not). I couldn't stand not playing it :-)

:bye:

I think it had support for soundblaster along with a few more soundcards
