I have crash problem while saving my game.
It happened many times.
I found it is relate to game's memory management ability.
When saving your game, the memory usage will surges very high. Then crash.
Ok, I have talked a lot.
Time to talk about the possible solution I found for WIN users.

Solution
Turn ON your computer's "PAGING FILE(virtual memory) "
Here is the instruction:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-virtual-memory-size#1TC=windows-7
My setting was 0Mb (because 8GB memory is enough to run most of stuff).
I set it to 2048 MB, the saving crash doesn't happen again.
Hope this solution can help people have the same problem.

For developer:
I noticed that after game saving finished, memory usage will go higher and higher.
For instance, before saving, memory usage is 6GB.
After your first save, usage will go to 6.05GB.
After second save it will be 6.1GB, and so on.
It doesn't release memory after saving.
So I have to quit and relaunch the game every half hour. Otherwise my memory won't be enough.
I hope the description can help you fix the issue.
I am looking forward to the first expansion.:)
