This may have nothing at all to do with the crash, but is there any reason that your preferences file has more than one line which reads "HelpSystemEnabled"? Have you tried deleting all but one of those lines?

I don't know why but everytime i play Darwinia, i get more of those lines everytime. Anyway, ideleted those lines and it worked! I gues it was because of that. I don't know how to sort out the "HelpEnabled = 1 " problem.

Thank you, xander, for responding to the question regarding the fatal error "Hashtable grew too large". I checked my preferences.txt file and saw that I had Numerous instances of the line, "ModSystemEnabled = 1". I deleted all but one such line. Now I can play. Note that I'm using the Steam version of Darwinia on WinXP64.

Well, I'm glad that something I wrote over a year and a half ago is still helping someone. 0_o
