Recurring System Shutdown

I loaded Armageddon using serial ID onto a Levono Laptop running Windows 7 Professional Version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601
i5 CPU M 420 @ 2.4GHZ 4GB RAM

I updated with 1.03 patch

I could not take screen shot as screen went blank and computer rebooted. When I try to open the saved file the system crashes.

The Windows error problem:
Problem signature:

I tried to attach the following files, but received error messages.

Campaign scenario saved file
Error log from Documents\My Game\Warhammer 4000\
Windows system dump file referenced above
Windows system sysdata file referenced above

I am a rookie and not a computer whiz.

Please, zip the savegame and you could upload this file.
In 1.02 I saw the crash and could repeat such a crash.
Is the savegame from 1.02?
Is it a savegame made after the end of the mission in the "Review map"?

I was running version 1.03.
The shutdown happened as I clicked on a unit during a turn.

I am attaching the zipped save game file.

I just tried another turn using the same campaign saved file and it crashed again.

Please open the game installation folder an rename the subfolder named Audio as _Audio and check if the issue persists.

I changed the audio folder to include the dash and still had the problem occur. What next?

And can you start a new campaign, save games and load them without a crash?

Yes. I can load the file saved from a current campaign and it will work for awhile. I might go through a few scenarios and then I move a unit and then it freezes up and crashes

If you haven't already tried, try turning the volume to 0 and see if this helps.
