Can you describe the crash more fully please? Any errors or messages?

Just from one particular save, or any save? Were the problem saves created under the same game version as you now have?

What is that version - have you successfully applied the 2.32 patch? What checksum shows up?
 
There are no error messages whe this happens. The game kicks out back to windows, while windows "searches" for a solution to the problem. Everything appears to load fine until i try to select a saved game- which there is only one. I am unable to select "play". When i hit the back button to play a new game this is when it crashes.
