[Crash][0.806] Crash upon entering Options, starting a New Game, or loading

Quite simply, a crash whenever I enter Options, start a New Game, or load a new game on Windows XP 32bit. Deleting everything in the Application Data/Stardock/Elemental/Screens folder seems to let it work just fine, albeit with a blur filter on everything and a lot of missing button things. Latest video drivers, updated last week I believe.


Crash message was "The exception unknown software exception(0xc000000d) occurred in the application at location 0x003a61ab".

Please ignore the sound issues in the debug file for now, my sound drivers appear to be missing.

Can you please zip your Application Data/Stardock/Elemental/Screens folder and put that on dropbox so that I can see if it's creating bad texture atlases?

If it's not creating bad texture atlases, my guess would be that you've got a bad install because that's probably the only other thing that will cause a crash on the options screen.
