It seems I'll have to do a clean and reinstall from scratch as having used winetricks for msxml3 I now get a "failed to initialize renderer" error.

I deleted my .wine tree and started again. 1) Installed msxml via winetricks 2) Installed Civ4 from CD 3) Installed dotnet20, corefonts and vcrun2003 via winetricks 4) Installed BtS fromCD 5) Attempt to install 3.17 patch fails after clicking finish and hangs waiting on a pipe after choosing not to report the problem. The wine output is: fixme:shell:DllCanUnloadNow stub fixme:reg:GetNativeSystemInfo (0x321a8c) using GetSystemInfo() fixme:reg:GetNativeSystemInfo (0x33fb38) using GetSystemInfo() err:setupapi:do_file_copyW Unsupported style(s) 0x144 31 repeats of above line cut err:setupapi:do_file_copyW Unsupported style(s) 0x144 err:storage:BlockChainStream_WriteAt not enough blocks in chain to write data 102 repeats of above line cut err:storage:BlockChainStream_WriteAt not enough blocks in chain to write data err:storage:Storage32Impl_SmallBlocksToBigBlocks conversion failed: resRead = 0x80030109, resWrite = 0x00000000 err:seh:setup_exception_record stack overflow 392 bytes in thread 0044 eip 100a86cc esp 7d3a21a8 stack 0x7d3a1000-0x7d3a2000-0x7d4b2000 Trying to start the game after this still results in the "failed to initialize renderer" error. Any ideas why the patch install fails?
