Gods and Kings Crashes.

[ironviking42]

I know this looks like a common problem. When the expansion was released I completed 2 games, no problems. I was travelling all summer and tried to play with new patch. Crashes a few turns in. I've deleted all directories and re-installed , rolled back video drivers, changed enablecorethread to 0. No crash dump file in the civ 5 steam aapps directory. Any other suggestions? it doesn't shut the computer down but reboots.

If it is not heat related, then you could try updating your video driver.
