SMAC was running fine on my computer before, but now whenever I try to load a game or start a new one, it says "unable to allocate draw-buffer, terminating program." I just don't get it, it was running fine before. My computer:
133mhz
Windows 95
40mb ram
approx. 30mb of free space on my hard drive
Hopefully somebody can help me with this problem. Thanx to all who reply

I got around that one by rebooting.
Otherwise, Jeffrey advised to set your "hardware acceleration" under Graphics settings to the minimum (Sorry I can't give specifics, at work ). I haven't tried it myself tho.
