There are some known issues with graphics glitches (thats why silver). I dont have a solution for that one at the moment.

If you have problems with starting the game (crashes), throw away your Settlers game profile in your home directory.
When Starting again a new profile will be created and it should run again.

Thank you very much for that answer...

but at my mac mini, leopard, it doesnt work. Each time i open it, an error appears whith a content like this:

At the application "settlershok.exe" are appearing some errors and has to be shut down...

Thats wierd, did you try deleting the profile in your homefolder and then deltete the bottle and express install the game again?

Thats because of the cd protection. There is a way around, but Confront DRM issues (link to http://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/dmca)
