Just got this game and am having a problem with the Wonder movies. I've got the 1.2 patch and updated the video codecs to 5.11. Still, everytime it plays a movie, the movie window stays in the middle of the screen and won't go away. I eventually have to ctrl alt del out. Really frustrating! Makes it impossible to advance past my Chichen Itza wonder improvement! Help! Please.....

I guess you have the same problem as I. I.e. when the movie is over, the movie-window just stays on top of the screen without going away.
What I do is this: click the options tag, which opens a window just under the movie window, then click on the options window (that is, click on the movie window) and the movie window disappears.

I was going to say that. It also works if you don't want to watch the movie all the way. Just click, and it reduces to a small square window, click on that and it goes away.
