Crash after choosing race win7

from GalCiv2 Forums

I have bought the ultimate deition on impulse.

At first it worked perfectly, but now it crashes every time I try to start on a new map. When I load an old game it works okey.

 

Please help me.

Try setting fullscreen to off in the video tab of the options screen.  It'll still look like it's fullscreen, but it'll actually be windowed.  It might help.

Thank you for the tip.

But unfortunately I still have the same problem.

If you're able to load old games, the driver reset may just be coincidental--try moving or deleting the custom race files from My Documents\My Games\GC2TwilightArnor, as generally crashes at that point indicate one of them is corrupt.
