What UD said, also if you can give us details of what action you were trying to perform etc.
We want to help, but need some more info.

Check to make sure you have all the latest sound and video drivers for your cards. What directX version are you running?

Also have you tried renaming the music file so no music plays in the game?

Or you could follow this method, to turn the music off.

I have the same problem. Instead of doing anything over-exotic, use the config program to turn the sound OFF. If it doesnt work (mine does not), open settings.cfg (located the same place as hoi.exe) using notepad.

Change "MUSIC_ON" to "MUSIC_OFF". Problem solved!

Now either play the game without music untill a patch comes around, or do, as others say, play the mp3 files in the background using another program. You will still have sound effects.

Try renaming the AVI folder to AVIbackup

Try playing with no mods, does the game still crash at the same point?
If it does not there is something wrong with your mod and you could try asking in the Editing forum.

Things to try:
Rename your AVI file AVIback.
Manually save the game once an hour or so.

Seams wierd but I know, but these things helped me avoid crashes in EU2. May work for you with HOI.
