CTD - too often

from Stardock Forums
I have downloaded the new .exe, however, it did not help. The game crashes to desktop during turn processing, and consistently (I can send a saved game which crashes on turn processing). Every game I play happens to got into such state, in approx. 100th turn. Regretfully, playing Galciv is over for me (:(

I am Win2k, so at least debug.err, maybe it can help you ?

I've had the same thing in my debug file but i never crashed. I did a complete unistall then installed everything and the extracted the zip file. I haven't had a crash yet! Hope this might help you. I'm on a 2.2 P4, 512 DDR Ram , 512G of hd Raid 1
I play on small and gigantic sizes, play mostly good or neutral

There is an update: http://draginol.stardock.com/temp/galciv.zip

It should address this.

I have downloaded this update before reporting this problem. Sorry for bad news :(

However, I have not tried complete reinstall, so I will check.

Without smart exception data there's not much I can do.

I am getting a lockup when I play and it's due to your ships getting stuck in an endless loop. :(
