Error codes 12 and 13 along with crashing.

However, you only need to do the bcdedit command prompt stuff if you're using 32-bit Windows. As you discovered, CFF Explorer by itself didn't have any effect on 32-bit Windows.
This prompt, when typed in, merely flashes the black box up for a half second, and then thats it right?
No confirmation or anything, you just restart your computer at that point.
True?

Tizerist, If your referring to the what the Civ board says to type into CP, he left out something that needs to be typed in also.
On the Civ board it says this
- Now we need to make Windows Vista (32-Bit) ready to support more than 2 GByte.
- Open a command prompt with Administration rights. You find it under "Programs->Accessories->Command prompt" click right and select "run as administrator".
- Enter "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVA 3072" (without quotes) in the command window and press enter.
After that restart windows
- For Windows XP there is a similar setting for the boot.ini, but I am not sure what it is, should be found be google.
He says to type this.... "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVA 3072" minus the quotes
But he omitted a word which should be typed exactly this way... "bcdedit.exe /set IncreaseUserVA 3072" minus the quotes
At least it's what worked for me.

Hmmm, well the way which was on the Civ2 board has worked by the looks of it.
If I get any problems, I'll try your way.
And I also didn't use administration right. I turned that off years ago.
I suppose it won't hurt to do it your way also.
Typing it in twice doesn't reverse the process, does it?
My game hasn't been this glitch-free since like July. I've only done about 5-6 hours testing, but 5-6 hours without a crash is a result.
I even went and added another 32 sims in my town, FPS went down a bit, but no CTD's. Before I was crashing with 6 sims, and with some lots removed for stability also.
Taks manager showed I was using 2.32 gb last night. This would appear to be proof of an improvement. I cannot believe what I witnessed last night. Admittedly, non-EA CC was removed, but that never stopped the crashing before.
Progress has been made.
GnatGoSplat:
It won't hurt to omit the ".exe" on the end of bcdedit. From the command-line, anytime you type the name of an executable, the .exe is implied.
Doing it again shouldn't reverse it.

Also, be sure to backup the original .exe file. If you patch, it will need to find the original file.
GnatGoSplat, what exe. file are you referring to?
