[0.25] [BSOD] On Training Soldier on First Turn

from Elemental Forums

First 0.25 fixed my need for a kludge install. W00T!

After creating my first city in 0.25 I tried to train a soldier on the first turn. When I hit the train button the screen went black and flashed on and off for about 20-30 seconds while the music continued. Then the music began to stutter and about 10 seconds later the BSOD popped up.

If you got a BSOD, it is driver or hardware related, not Elemental. While Elemental might have been the proximate cause, a user mode app can't crash the system like that. For that sort of thing you need to figure out which driver crashed (the BSOD will often say) and then report it to that manufacturer.
