Game Crashes after "Map Properly Initilized"

[unmerged(99061)]

Everytime I try to run ROME, it crashes when I get to this point of the start up load sequence...

Any suggestions?

Have you successfully applied the 1.1 patch? Does everything else in the CRASH sticky thread, above?

If so: Please post your settings.txt and system.log files. Also run DXDIAG, Save All Info, and upload that file here.

I am not sure how to do those things

do you know what to do next because this is extremely frustrating!!!

Please update your video driver; if you have 32bit Vista the latest is here http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x86_169.25_whql.html

If that doesn't help please post your settings.txt and system.log files, they will be under your ROME directory.
