It's time to hop over to to TPB, grab an appropriate XP64 disk, and REFORMAT and REINSTALL.
There is XP64? How did I miss this? Finally, my fourth GB of RAM will no longer remain flaccid and unused. Well, once I get a new hard drive, since I can't be assed to reformat.
Theo:
Search for 'windows xp 64'. Google Suggest even adds 'torrent'. ;D ARRR!

Well, I tried a clean game with no CC -- no crashes. Clean game with CC -- no crashes. I guess I can conclude that at least *part* of my problem is my backed up game. I've been playing it for about 3 years, so it's probably time to move on anyway.
By the way, I *thought* I was getting 64-bit Windoze, but my system info tells me it's 32. Time to call Dell and ask them WTF?

I wouldn't. Calling to talk to someone in Bangladesh with very little understanding of the english language isn't helpful. They never know what they are talking about anyway... they just refer to a giant manual and feed you irrelevant answers. At least, this is my experience with both Dell and AOL.

Well, after going through umpteen people, Dell is sending me the 64-bit version of Windoze at no additional cost. Installing it will void the software portion of my warranty; but since they've proved themselves useless in software issues anyway, I don't think that's any great loss. ;D
Since it *seemed* to be only my saved neighborhood crashing, though, is it safe to assume starting over will work? Or will it only work once I have the 64-bit system installed?
