Crashes with 1.501 Beta - 1/1/2011 8:42:51 PM

I've been having crashes with the 1.501 Beta patch every 20 minutes or so.

I receive the following message: "Microsoft Windows--A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". I tried re-installing RotS and the beta patch with no change. I've also noticed that there seems to be some sort of problem switching between Mods and the default game, but the games that are crashing are in the default version. I've uploaded a save game titled Elrohir525 1501B. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the savegame Elrohir.

Are there any messages in the Windows event log related to these crashes? (Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer)

Thanks
Elliot

Hello Elliot,

Sorry but there wasn't anything I could find in the logs that was from the right date and that seemed related....

Hi, I have been experiencing crashes with the beta patch too. I can see a .net runtime error in the program log:

EventType clr20r3, P1 distantworlds.exe, P2 1.5.0.1, P3 4d134ca3, P4 mscorlib, P5 2.0.0.0, P6 4be90358, P7 e1, P8 16, P9 system.argumentoutofrange, P10 NIL.

Hope it can help.
