How often do you get CTD?

Was going to say that I don't get any CTD's on my new machine, but I was just rewarded with a "nice" CTD after defeating 2000 men Arverni army near Ankira on my KH campaign, while losing only 350out of 1100 men. It didn't even happen immediately after battle as another AI faction was already in the middle of its turn. That was actually only my 1st or 2nd CTD on the new computer (and what a great timing

).

On the old PC I was getting CTDs quite regularly, but it was P4 with 1Gb of RAM and ATI 9250 video card. EB was rather stressful for that PC. New PC is AMD X2 4800 CPU, 2Gb of RAM and 8800 GT graphics card, so hardware specs are surely not the reason this time.

I am playing a KH game now (very fun) but I am getting CTD's about once every three years, usually while a battle is loading. I did not have many with my Baktria campaign (2-3 in 90 years) and I had no problems at all while playing with SABA or Makedonia. Could these be faction related?

Could any of you kind players post whether you are getting CTDs(or not) around battles, and whether it's an ATi or Nvidia GPU.
I am about to build a new PC, and need to make some sort of informed decision on whether one make of card causes any more CTDs than the other.

I would like to buy the decent value for money ATi HD 4870, but I am not sure if Nvidia cards work better with CAs products?

Thanks for any help.

Arrrgh! Just got a post-battle on AI turn CTD. Fortunately not in a turn with a string of battles, nor a particularly important one. I obviously didn't wait long enough before clicking finish.

2 CTD yesterday. one is

1st picture is showing the invisible clone army.
2nd picture is showing the existed army which can merge to the invisible clone army.

Then I say to myself, what will happen if I merge them? After I click the mouse, something tell me it will CRASH!!! But it's too late.

But you are the Saka? So cloning also happens in your own faction, actually? Holy crap.

I was getting an alarming number of CTDs, mainly in battles and just at the point where the victory was inevitably mine. I changed the battle resolution down one level to see what happened. No CTDs!!!!! The game is very playable at the lower res - no degradation of quality.
