If you have auto save turned on the you should have a backup with that. Both the autosave and the old autosave.

As for your crashes, it should not be doing that. post your system specs, publisher version eg Strategyfirst, Panvision ...
And I will help you out.
 
If it CTD in the middle of a save it is most likely lost.
 
First if you are having problems with other programs then the fault is probabely not with HOI.

You can try and rename the AVI folder to AVI_back and make sure you have set the color depth to 16BIT.

Also if you have VIA drivers then they are known to be buggy.
 
First try this "You can try and rename the AVI folder to AVI_back and make sure you have set the color depth to 16BIT."

Also make sure your video drivers are up to date, also make sure you are using 1.05C.
You may also want to look at upgradeing your DirectX.
In fact please run a DirectX diagnostic.
 
I would avoid, the VIA drivers, lots of Problem with HOI.
 
Lets hope the last patch needed for bug fixes, but not the last for additional features. ;)
 
Sorry you feel that way.

It is a known problem, and only with the VIA drivers.
They are also known to have problems with other programs.
