You only mentioned two text files (descr_strat and descr_regions) but there are (at least) four that need to be edited:

data\text\<<Campaign_or_Map>>regions_and_settlement_names.txt
data\world\maps\base\descr_regions.txt
data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\descr_regions_and_settlement_name_lookup.txt
data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\descr_strat.txt

(the last three, if you are using a provincial campaign map will be in data\world\maps\campaign\<<provincial_campaign_name>>\)

It sounds like not all the files were altered, leaving references to the deleted regions in (most likely) the data\text regions_and_settlement_names file and the map descr_regions_and_settlement_name_lookup file.
Thanks for the heads up. I think ive edited them all but il double check. Also it crashed straight to desktop with no error message and i have show_err on the shortcut.
