Yep this is a common one. Make sure you are fully patched and if that does not work then you need to e-mail firaxis for a SafeDisk Patch or get a patch from another source...

I think that covers it. I thouht that had been address in a patch, but I did not see it mentioned in the readme.
Anyway it is always a good idea to give the verision and OS.

Uninstall and reinstall from. Changes in the direv configurations might cause this.
