Great game Shogun 2, but 1st crash after a few hours

[Brau Koenig]

So the game has been great so far. I really like that Jeff van Dyck reused some of the original music. It was what keep me playing the original for so long. But I had a crash today after playing a few hours. I have played about 10 hours per Steam. I took the screen shot in case some one can help. Perhaps I should reboot again since the memory used has only been reduced to 5.8 GB,. It seems like windows 7 64-bit doesn't free it up like it should, after programs are quit. Could be firefox, could be uTorrent? Does anyone have any ideas to help prevent this from occuring? Thanks,

run a memory test. Thats a memory error. With RAm, and that large amount it can take hours or longer for it to hit a bad section of ram. Its worth looking in to.

Thanks for the idea. I'll try and run a windows test after a restart. I have tried it before but didn't think it gave an error. I'll try longer this time.
