Right click my computer > click properties > click advanced > click settings under startup and recovery > untick automatically restart > click ok > click apply and ok.
Now when it crashes it should display a blue screen. When it does can you note down what it says and post it here.

Have you uninstalled Civ4?
What are you doing when the computer crashes?
Have you perform a virus scan?
Are all the fans running in your PC?

(this is a bit off topic but do you think registry programs are any good?)

Does it detect any errors?
What are your full system specs? If you don't know download Sysspec http://www.alexnolan...are/sysspec.htm

If it continues to display errors then switch the new for the old and run the test again.
