When I try to make a move -- game hangs
I chose a unit, click a destination, game draws an arrow, initial unit vanishes (or not sometimes), game hangs :/
PS. Win XP SP3, GTX 460 SE, all drivers up to date
Funny is that I played this game before after I bought it this summer...

Please, rename Panzer Corps "Audio"folder to "_Audio", and report back.
When reporting back, post your DxDiag, please.

Like you've already guess, the issue is related with the sound. Your MCI is broken, probably after you've installed a codec pack, like k-lite.
Please, take a look at this thread and report back.

Ye, it was a bug in klite. It looks like they fix it in 7.7.5. At least now all is working even I enabled all audio filters in klite.
PS> What the hell is MCI?!

It's an API (interface), different than DirectX, for controlling video and audio. It's lighter and easier to program I think.
But it's not so much used this days, as it was in the past.
