    Hello all, I shall first begin with my system specs. I know there can be more detail, but this info should hopefully be enough to address my current problem.

    Athlon 3200
    1024 DDR RAM
    120GB HD
    nVidia 6600GT

    So here is the problem

    and

    Note he strange boxes in the first screenshot, now they flicker at high speed across the game making it impossible to play. This happens even if I turn all the settings to the lowest possible. I do think that mu PC should handle this game atleast at minimum graphics, no?

    I found out, in case of the second screenshot, that turning off shadows eliminates the weird yellow boxes and the flicker. In case of CaesarIV turning off shadows helps, but not completely.

    So I would like to ask the educated people of this site, what is wrong with this?

    Since I can not edit my message and there was no preview, then the pictures went wrong. You can still see them by right clicking and going to the source....but you probably knew that :)
