I can't figure out why it's doing this, but I never had the problem with the beta of the game. It just started occuring after the official release. My video drivers are updated, and the sound drivers are the latest I can get, but i'm not sure what to make of the error message. I usually can't get past 10 turns, and when I do get to the turn that shuts it off, it simply minimizes to a window and freezes until I can get it off.
