0.5.1 beta, crash after less than 10 minutes (Win7 64bit)

Just downloaded the 0.5.1 beta after playing 0.5.0 for... a while, and I've hit a pretty severe issue.

About 10 minutes into a new game (all I'd done was get a couple of missions from the bar, bought a jump drive, picked up a ship-full of food to sell to Serenity, and then got to the "this is how your HUD works" in the tutorial bit), it froze and I got a "Vegastrike has stopped responding" window pop up.

I've attached a few documents, hopefully they'll help narrow things down.

I too had problems with frequent crashes on Win7 until I ran things from a shortcut which specified processor affinity. The details of the shortcut are here: http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/forum ... 37#p124131

Hope it helps.

Thanks for the help, that seems to be working (well, the tutorial completed anyway, so that's a promising sign).
