[1.07] Persistant Crash

from Elemental Forums

After a few turns Elemental seems to enjoy falling down and perishing on me.  The crash persists even as I change sovereigns, graphics settings, and so on.

Here's the file link: http://pastebin.ca/1936285

Thanks in advance

I figured I should add more detail, the problem seems to occur most often when A cit is somewhere onscreen, but the timing of the crashes seems completely random other than that. Hopefully that's at least somewhat helpful, I enjoy the game for as long as it lets me play it, and I hope I get to play through to the end sometime soon.

given that your video drivers are over a year old, im guessing they'll tell you to start by updating those...just a guess.

If there was a dump zip created in C:\ProgramData\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic on Windows XP), please post it via drop.io.

Also, as I continued troubleshooting it seemed that the crash was eliminated when anti-aliasing is turned completely off, hopefully that extrra information is useful.

Edit: As an answer to the above post, my graphic drivers are an older model, but they are the most up to date NVIDIA supports for my hardware configuration.
