CTD - on ending turn

August 10, 2008 4:30 PM from

TA run fine on my computer for hundreds of turns. But I am using a notebook now (sold my computer). But I get a CTD (crash to desktop)now, after a few turns of playing. This is not random, it is allways in the same turn. After hitting the turn button, the AI thinks for a while, some opponents move and then the game closes. I have a save game from the last turn, but I cant load it, because I get a CTD after a few seconds of loading. I can load all previous turns tough, only the last one before the specific CTD-event wont work. I guess the 2 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE errors in the debug file have to do with the problem. I hope there is a sollution for this, Waldfels (win XP prof. - game via Impulse)
