Sorry, no debug.err or dxdiag; just downloaded it over lunch, and got a few minutes to play with it. Left it idling on the computer for maybe 20 minutes, got back to it, and tabbed to items and spells on the soverign, hadn't even moved him yet (was looking to build a city). Whole computer seized when I clicked on the spells tab, had to hard reboot. I'll try to recreate tonight and post debug and dxdiag.
