Game Crashes

Political Machine
I know...I know...the game is in first beta. But I have WinXP and I'm not trying to play multiplayer, so I should at least be able to see the map! The game crashes right after campaign setup for me.
Just tried again and it appears it only crashes if I try to be a Republican. Works just fine for being a Democrat.
I hope I will be able to play as a Republican soon...it really makes me sick to be John Kerry.

Okay, I'm stupid. I forgot I had to start Smart Exception.

Oh, by the way, it wouldn't submit through Smart Exception. That's why I pasted it here.

Well, the crash comes even later than it did in the previous build but it still comes. Smartexception won't send the error report.

Woohoo!! The new build lets me play the game a bit! I locked up at week 8 but until then, everything was going beautifully!
No report from Smartexeception, I couldn't do anything but push the "Reset" button on the PC. I'll try again, but boy, the game was great until it locked up!

Okay, happened again. Looks like it only happens to me when my candidate lands in a state that has a question mark. Still can't seem to transmit a SmartException, so I'll post the report here:

I think I'll just let the PC have all the question marks next time and see if that's the only cause.

Well, curiosity killed the cat, and apparently so do question marks. I just couldn't resist going after a green question mark and guess what? I had a little ole crash. Please tell me where to send these Smartexception reports to if posting them here isn't okay. When I click on "submit exception report", Smartexception doesn't do anything.

Hope I'm helping out. The game is awesome besides this little glitch on my machine.

Well, got a crash and there were no question marks, unless one popped up in the state I was in. I made it to Week 30 and was whooping up too! Oh, well...here's the info:
