I actually think Fox News is quite balanced in their reporting. O'Reilly and Hannity and Combs are fine shows, but their not passed off as news...rather news commentary. Yeah, balanced if your a right-winged religous zealot. Fox news serves Cheney & Bush, they don't have a mind of their own.

update the game to 1.6, that may help...the many 1.5 versions were really buggy and crash prone... also you may look for an update sound driver.

go to my documents, galciv folder and delete the race config files... all of them, that will get rid of any custom races and return you to the orginal races ps their not hiding things, lots of games use your documents folder to store game data, like saves.

If your enemy is with in your sensor range(ie ship, planet, or starbase) you will see their moves. the best way to keep track of your enemy is the "Eyes of the Universe", buildable after you've researched sensors IV, with the "Eyes" you don't have to waste space on your ship with sensors all starbases and ships get maxed out sensors.

you can create your own hulls from scratch or use premade templates, its important to make your own designs with the weaponns and defensive technologies you have aquired. the premade designs won't incorperate your latest technologies you must do it yourself.

Has it occurred to you that Frogboy gets hundreds of PMs, and maybe he hasn't gotten around to reading yours? He's the CEO of Stardock, and a busy guy. And yes, yesterday was a national holiday in the USA. People don't work on Memorial Day here, deal with it. Do me a favor, avmf8. This Christmas try e-mailing Bill Gates to get tech support from him.

(on the other hand, if in GalCiv you could zoom into an asteroid field down to seeing an individual man on the asteroid field and instruct him to check out a small glowing object not far from him in order to trigger a new optional event that might be a different thing all together). ohhh....that would be very, very, sweet !!!!!!!!!!! maybe have a special release with the whole graphics engine...Dark Avatar S.H.O.

Focus your production on planets, ie have them specialize much possible... by doing this you only need a few planets "focused" on research and the rest to military, with economic production. keep planets pops below 12 billion so you don't have to build morale structures. i build 2-3 factories on planets focused to research, and 4-5 factories on planets focused to economic, only time i will place several different types of structures is if the planets has many different pre-cursor artifacts.

As mystikmind said understanding your motherboard is key, stating that your motherboard is of the biggest type doesn't say much, as there are many different sizes, chipsets, bios. measuring your motherboard in inches or millimeters will tell what size tower you will need (ie ATX, BTX, microATX, microBTX) you can find a guide at wikipedia to reference your size.
