The game crashes to desktop

from GalCiv2 Forums

My old computer died on me (sniff) and I was forced to purchase a new computer with Vista Home edition (32 bit) installed on it. I downloaded Impulse, downloaded and installed the GalCiv 2 games. I tried to play TA but it crashed to the destop everytime the Stardock intro was playing. I cannot find a debug report to post. Any suggestions would be apprecciated. I have very few games that hold my interest. GalCiv2 has passed the replayability test time and time again. I do not want to lose this game.

The location you'll find the debug.err in varies depending on which game you're playing:

Dread Lords: My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2
Dark Avatar: My Documents\My Games\GC2DarkAvatar
Twilight of the Arnor: My Documents\My Games\GC2TwilightArnor

Older versions may store the debug directly in the location the game is installed at.

Be sure to copy the debug immediately after the error occurs; if you start the game again, the debug will be erased and recreated for the new session.

I uninstalled everything and reinstalled everything and TA seems to work now. This meant redownloading everything again wihich is somewhat time consuming.
