Hello,
I am having a problem with Dark Avatar when loading a saved game. This does not happen with every saved game but after loading a saved game, I can play through my first turn and then the game closes and I am returned to the Windows XP desktop.
Here is the debug.err report:

Any ideas as to what is going on?
I have made sure I have the latest video drivers and the CPU/GPU is not overheating.
