Lockups, Crashes SEV RETAIL V 1.00

While playing the Full Release Version 1.0 of the game, I have the following Problems.

* After Playing a series of turns, the game will lock-up while taking the turns for the AI. If 9 are playing, it will get to player 9's turn and hang. When I reload the last save.. it doesnt matter what I do during my turn, it still always will hang. This makes the ability to restore from last saved game useless. And pretty much ends whatever progress you had made in that entire game, with an unplayable game past that point.

* Having random crashes to desktop.. sometimes without error message, toher times with out of range error, or Fatal Exception Errors.

I had the same issues while running the demo, was hoping version 1.0 would be better. I have checked to insure I have the latest drivers for my hardware and software, and the issues remain. At this time, It frustrating enough to make the game unplayable. Rather annoying to play for 30-45 minutes only to have the game hang and never recover.. regardless of how many times you reload the save game.

My Spec..
