First of all, exuse me for poor english.

I've experince a very annoying crash-to-desctop during tactical combat. In a majority of times it's happen in the most end of battle, to be more accurate - when I pressing tick button, on battle statistics scroll. But it can happen any time, in the middle, rarely in the begining. It can be very frustrating after a hour(s) of hard fighting with 4-5k enemies. Not every second time, but 1 per 4-5-6.
Any help?

Yes, i've playin' EB 1.0
No i do not have any mods, except EB.
Yes, i do install all permamanent fixes.
Yes, i do install all temporary fixex.
No, i do not post savegame 'couse i couldn't save during tactical =) Anyway it wan't help, it can happen any game, any campaign, any event (siege, defending, plain fight), any period of campaign time.

Sould i provide any additional information?

I used to get midbattle CTDs, but that was before I upgraded my PC.

What are your computer stats? You may be maxing out your system or overheating your videocard.

It is not hardware problem, many other heavy 3D-games works fine. And it is not mid-battle, it majorly when 100-200 enemy units left.

I've heard people say you should wait for about 10 seconds before clicking the tick in the battle report. I do not experience many of those crashes myself, so I can't attest to how effective the measure is. But it can hardly do much harm.

I go through many battles and I usually take some time to look at the detailed statistics. I've noticed that when I don't look at the detailed list, and click the tick on the detailed list after looking at the casualty ratio, I would get a crash. This isn't consistent, but just recently I got a crash after a siege because I tried to get out of it as fast as I could.
