Crash! Kaboom!

Crash before application start

Crash to desktop immediately after starting GalCiv2; no splash screen of any sort loads. After submitting this, I'll restart the computer to see if it goes away (this is immediately after install)

Double check you have the latest Nvidia drivers. They certainly crash without the latest version.

We have the same graphics card. Like Solitair said, download the latest drivers if you haven't already (71.84 I think).
