My game has run for a very long time with no problems at all. Now, I can't get past year 2486. i have tried, but I always get that terran.exe has crashed error. Any help?

Chances are you're running out of virtual memory. Make sure you've got 200+ megs free on your c: drive (or wherever your swapfile resides) and that windows is managing the swapfile size.

Well, I suppose it's possable, but I don't think so. I have a little over 1.5GB left on my HDD, and 64megs of memory. I have rebooted, restarted, and tried a bunch of things. Would it be possable to e-mail my save game to somebody to see if they have the same problem? Or see if it's maybe an event in the game(new tech, a video) that is starting and crashing my game. I might try reinstalling I guess...
