Cripes a fault like this could be anything, most errors that I have are compatability with various modded items such as graphics & sounds, most other faults such as ini will come up with the SH3 box as BBW mentioned. For example I created with a very old version of Wavelab some sounds/speech in ogg format, ran fine on one system, ran fine on all systems in windows (not in game), however CTD & even total reboot in my (now old) system in the game, probably the type of onboard sound/card.
I later purchased Sound Forge & allways works 100%. What happened in game was that all went ok till that particular sound was called on then whammo! This also applies to grahics, a ship/plane may suddenly appear that your system doesn't like and CTD!!
So you have to try and see ahead, by checking navmap screen as to what is coming
before it becomes visable!
This may not apply here but has happened to me for sure.
