Need game help... Civ4 bug?

[Cor'e =)]

BTS 3.19 WinXP Pro x32 SP3 latest updates, tried two different PCs.

The save game gives black screen and Civ4 is terminated just after pressing the end turn button... Does anyone know how to find out what's going wrong with Civ4 using this savegame file?

I tried going to the previous savegame, but even it just won't go past the point (discovery of tech) that this happens, i replayed several times on two differing PCs, one uses Intel GPU and the other nVidia GPU, both WinXP Pro.

Here's the savegame:

Take2 support suggested i change the memsaver flag to true, this did not work, and it makes it so you may not leave the game for any reason or it will exit without saving, for example pressing ALT-Tab or Win-Key would be fatal.

On my own i tried reducing the graphics to all Low and the screen size to smallest resolution - still black and crash when i press the end-turn key. I also tried the 3GB flags in the boot.ini - no luck.

Can anyone get this save game to progress past to the next turn? There are no mods or anything, seems Civ4 has a bug here imo.

Just one thing I noticed: It's turn 900 (marathon) but the ingame date is 2119 BC. Ignoring the fact that 2119 BC is an invalid date at any speed in BTS, turn 900 in Marathon is most certainly not anywhere near 2119 BC. I don't know what is wrong with your save.

I opened your save and hit shift+enter to end the turn, and it went to 2118 BC just fine. Except all the date information disappeared. I don't know what is going on, but here's a save of turn 901.

Might want to see if it crashes again.

When i ran your savegame i got about a 10,000 python exceptions, all kinda related to what you are saying, i'll go back in tha savegames and see if i can find where the dates went wrong, i just never noticed that till now.
