Still having trouble - can sombody help me please!

I'm still having trouble with my turn button. No matter what I do it keeps freezing. I've tried rebooting, restoring last saved, and a complete uninstall and reinstall of the game, and the same problem continues to occur. I installed the dx9 that can with the game when I bought it, but I can't even enojoy the game.
I'm happy (and also jealous) for you guys out there that enjoy your came, but since I've had the game I never been able to seriously enjoy it. I did however, before things started going bad, get to ejoy the game at some length. The Drengin had become the most power empire in the galaxy, and I and them had the votes in the senet. the Drengin started a war with me, and I was thrilled because I was the only Civ that was strong enought to even stand up against them. As the war continued, I saved the game, and from that time on I have never been able to enjoy another game, not to mention the aggrevation I felt because I couldn't finsh the war with the drenging. I need help here guys! This is killing me - help me not to go out like this!

While I was at war with the Drengin and couldn't complete it. I started asking for help. But I also saw an entre that askes what would we like to see added to the game. If you have time or are even interest - reply to these thoughts as well as the help notice -please.

What I would like see added to the game is this...

1) The ability to mine planets and asteroids with out having to build civs on the planets you mine.
2) Carries - in order to build carrier fleets
3) Planet information - to indetify what kind of mineral are on the planet or the asteroid on which the materals are that we need
4)Zoom in and out on the main screen and not just the mini screen
5) the ability to zoom in and out on your own fleets to see what ships are there (some kind of fleet management)
6) Damage report on ships that survive a battle
7) Sectors to contain elements, planet, Etc., that would (and could) make the sector vital and stretegicly important
8)way points
9) Battle stations that can support fleets and Armadas in there effort to control sectors or extend the empires might into other sectors that could not otherwise be reached.
10) Fleet reports conerning enemy fleets and other strange phenomenons in the system.
11) Jump points - so that fleet and armadas can travel great distances
12) to be able to assigne specific ships as flag ships in fleets or armadas
13) Zone control - and if another race's ships cross into the zone with out permission could be an act of war.
14) Different shapped galaxcies
15) A Mining report dialog - giving detail on the empire minieral sesource in the sector in relation to a report concering the over all mineral storage of the empire.
16) Galactic and Insterstalla voids - that must be travelled in order to reach and conqure other star systems
17) Military build queues
18) Planetary bombarder ships

I no that much of this is only wishful thinking, but it is my wish list! You guys out there are far more than me concerning this and the possiblities of this. I thought I would simply share my interest. Please if you can help me about this sticking ploblem of mine - please do! All the excitmemt I felt when buying the game is starting down hill, and that hurts.


:sniff!:

Early on there was a problem with Autosave. You might try turning that off to see if that helps. Good luck!

Quite likely the game is waiting for your input in something, like a colony ship that was on autopilot reaching the star system and waiting for you to pick a planet.

That's not it - because when I send it to a planet, because it sticks even after I do that. I can direct a colony ship to a planet, and then later on in the game, I have to give that same ship the same orders, because it seems as though it would loose its directions. But because it did that, I could deal with that, but this sticking thing is killing me! I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but I don't think I am, because the game pretty much explains itself.
