Windows blew me off when I tried go to the quests tab in the kingdom report screen. Afraid since Windows did it the debug file may not reflect it (?). I was in that tab a few minutes before with no problem, but since then I had fulfilled the 1st half stranded-knight forboding cave quest -- rescued him and wanted to double check where to take him when it crashed.

Windows application event viewer says
"Faulting application elemental.exe, version 0.3.2.0, faulting module msvcr80.dll, version 8.0.50727.4053, fault address 0x00008aa0."
-------------------------------------------------------------
Then reloaded a couple turns earlier, view the quest tab, alt-escaped to add to the post (while still in the quest tab). Then when I tried to re-open Elemental, Windows blew me off with an error message that I don't recall.
debug.err 2nd time at http://pastebin.com/1MnRq4dQ
event viewer didn't have anything new this time
