@ Capt. Shark Bait - I've had the same CTD's 3 times so far in one career, and 1 more in my second career which I've started 4 days ago. In my case, my savegames were from 3 mb up to just over 6 mb. In two of the cases, I tried loading the last save, then the one before that, and so on - until the game finally loaded. In the other two instances, I couldn't load anything from those patrols. Had to reload in base, and then redo the patrol.

Last night I had my most recent CTD - not while attempting to load a save game, but while attempting to end the patrol. What I noticed after about an hour of frustration is that my in-game date was November 8, 1942, and when the patrol summary screen popped up after clicking on END PATROL, the date shown was October 27, 1942 - my patrol starting date was O(ctober 3, 1942. So it seems that something must have happened with my game's time/date keeping somewhere in the middle of the patrol... Of course, after the crashes I couldn't start the game again, I had to try for around 5 or 6 times because I kept getting an ERROR 1000 message: PLEASE LOAD THE ORIGINAL DISK, NOT A BACKUP. And then, 5 minutes later, my UPS started acting up, there were about 4 minutes of brownouts, spikes, lights flickering in the house.... hmmmmm, must have been a mothership outside, that's why I couldn't end my patrol :rotfl:
