Hi guys,
I have valid copies of Galciv 2 and all the expansions. It doesn't show that it updated to version 2.0 unless 2.0 is 1.53 and when I run the games they just open a black screen and nothing happens no error nothing. my debug.err is listed below and I have re-activated 3 times and verified my install. What gives?
