My v1.4 SHIV is crashing also. I am using WinXP x64. Other specs include:
Nvidia GeForce 8800GS vid(single, not SLI), ASUS Crosshair mothb., 8Gig ram and SoundMax onboard sound, 650watt PS. It's a new system with new drivers.:p
I was at Saipan, mid 1942 and sent many anchored and unprotected Marus to bottom. Just as I was leaving the area, I clicked on the
Binoculars and the system crashed to desktop. A save I made prior to arriving at Saipan is apparently unable to load as well. Not all saves bad,... just in the Saipan area

?
It let me know that Silent Hunter IV has encountered a problem and
needs to close.
I've modded my SHIV a lot:
Taihosan Maru fix, Smaller Seabed Rocks, Smaller Sea Plants Medium, TRMs subsound update, TRMs Ingame Sound Update V.1, Taskbar Various Mods Final, Sub Bearing tool 3000 yard, Sobers better crew,
RSRDC_P2_v201, ParaB fewer radio contacts, ParaB tweaked air strikes, Environment mod, Combined Uniform Mod 1.0, Colored Torps Mod stg 2, Brighter Torp wakes.
Some in this forum have suggested that the onboard sound is the root of all evil, with SHIV, however I was playing SHIV on an older system with a Soundblaster live 24bit card and that crashed more often than my current setup.
Are there any fixes in the Uboat expansion?
Thanks in advance for the tonnes of help and advice I am going to get!!!
