This is the 3rd time I've been playing this game and it crashes to desktop. I keep playing the same thing over a second or 3rd time. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this? I know I have to save more often but I'm afraid I'll be at a critical point and it will drop out on me. I'm running Windows 7 with an nvidea 770 vidio card. I'll persevere but this is getting annoying.

A different version of the video drivers might be more stable.
I don't know which ones though.

You could also try reducing graphics (hardware) acceleration

The game might not start if acceleration is turned ALL the way down, but might be more stable with some level of reduction.

Tried to reduce hardware acceleration, but that option is greyed out. GOG suggested making sure DSR was not enabled. Checked that per their instructions and that is turned off. Have been playing some more and saving more frequently. So far, so good! Thanks for the suggestions! This is a fun game. Wish I had played it sooner!
