Reply to Game Crashes on Alt + Tab in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I know that this is an old thread, but it sums up my problem. I alt-tabbed out of the game to query this forum about the purpose of the "Find" button and my system locked up. The screen went black and I was unable to reboot into normal mode (the Windows 7 start logo came up, then the screen went solid black and stayed that way instead of going to the Windows logon select screen), so I had to do a hard shutdown and go to safe mode to run system restore to get things back up and run

Help! Where are my ships? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I just got GCII yesterday and I'm having trouble finding my ships.
