Crash during load, and selcting ships.

October 19, 2006 1:01:28 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
My game crashes whenever I try to load the escape campaign, I tried to bypass this by loading the previous game and finishing that campaign. I finished that up, and was able to get the first planet in escape upgraded, however when I tried selecting one of the ships and move it the game crashed. I believe everything is updated to current. If not can you give me the places I can upgrade? Here is the debug.err file. Please help, thank you

Your video card drivers are too old, and need to be updated.
