I have read the AppDB pages for this game. I have tried every bit of information on those pages. Without success. That is why I am asking here.
Which page? There are many versions of Civ IV listed, with different instructions. What version do you have and what exactly did you do?

Development versions are safe enough to try and run other applications on.
Then I will try that.

Depends on the app; check the AppDB. Civ IV has run fine for me in every Wine version for the past two years with just the msxml3 and d3dx9_36 overrides, but I have the no-DRM Complete DVD version. If you have a DRM'd version, you may need a no-cd crack.

there is nothing to do generally... many dx9 apps work as is. Depending on the game and problems though you might have to do some things... thats what the AppDB is for.

Then nothing.
Can someone say what the "err:ole:CoCreateInstance apartment not initialised" error is about? Google does not yield much useful results.
