I'm playing Dark Avatar version 1.50 as a custom race. I load a saved game, them when I'm done doing my actions for the turn (or even if I don't do anything) I hit the turn button. Sometime in the next turn the Korx contact me, this is when the game goes black and windows reports that it needs to close (sometimes it won't close and I have to kill it from the task manager).
It always crashed just before or during the KoRX talking to me.

I just downloaded the driver from nVidia. I have a save game that is saved just one turn before the crashing occurs. I have also tried running it in windowed mode, the same thing happens.
