Civ IV keeps crashing on me after I play for a while. The error is that
the system is out of video memory. I have 1GB of RAM (DDR2) and a 256MB
video card (PCI Express). I also have a 3.4 P4. I would think this is
more than enough horsepower to run this game, but it keeps crashing.
Later in the game, it crashes more often. I am running with the default
video settings (I did turn off the annoying music). Has anyone else run
into this? I am running patch 1.5.

I have had that problem, too. I upgraded to patch version 1.61 and it fixed
it. I don't know if there is any more recent patch, but you can check on
the site at www.civiv.com.

I still get some occasional crashes, but it's usually late into the game and
my system is a bit old, so I would say the 1.61 patch holds up pretty well.
