My first CTD, not"A" key related

Hello,
I have installed v1.2 and everythings ok.
I went to main.cfg and changed the Dev. options to "No."
I went to my graphics card GPU and changed the Hz to 75Hz.
I was playing against a large convoy, one that had about 10 ships(DD's included).
It was at night, visability nil, and in rain. My crew couldnt even see a ship that was very close, thats how dark it was.
I was experiencing considerable loss of frame rate, I guess due to the rain, ships, etc., when looking at the convoy. This is strange because before I had no problem with convoys and frame rate.
I have a geforce 6800ultra
Play on medium settings
Have a Pent. 4 HT 3.6 GHz
Anyway, A CTD happened after I sank 3 ships in the convoy.
I went back to my original settings, changed the Dev options to "Yes" but didnt change the Hz. and I have not experienced a CTD. Well, I havent come across any big convoys yet.

Finally, my questions:
1. Does changing the Dev options have any effect on gameplay?
2. Do you think that with a 6800 I could have inadvertantly cause the CTD with changing my Hz?

The only other CTD was by pressing "a" before patch 1.2 came out. Now "a" works fine.
Thanks for any help.
