Could you try that again with the CCO version 6.1 please?

Bob, how did you get Civ 4 to work? What steps did you take?

It doesnt work for me. When I click on civ 4, then it appears for a little moment in the crossover icon and then disappears.

On 6.1.0 DirectX 9 seem to install correctly, but there is one error mentioned in the installation log. The tail of my DirectX.log:
