The game randomly crashes when I'm at the gesture schreen and go down. The research screen does in fact show up, but then crashes immediatley. This is completely random and maybe occurs ~1/20th of the times I try to access the screen.
Additionally, Windows gives an error message which I've seen quite a lot on Windows 2000 systems when it comes to 3D Games. Unfortunatley I couldn't make a screenshot of it, but it said something about a specific memory slot where the action "written" could not be performed at.
I wouldn't relate this last error as being 100% Darwinia specific, because, as I said, it also happens with other games too, although game developers occasionaly actually fix this in a patch. I hope this happens again, so I can submit a screenshot, here's the blackbox for now:

I think that line proves he's using win2k.

Yeah, I actually thought I had taken a screenshot, but when I pasted it into some graphics program it was gone. Oh well. It also doesn't show up in the Event viewer, I guess I configured something wront (Verbosity settings or whatever).
I'm a convinced linux user, so I'm not that familiar with that windows stuff.
