ach, alot of us have gotten those one time or another. and under varying circumstances.

one question: had you had the time to do a "save empire" while in a game (saving the EA as an empire - I had similar problem when I tried to change the "personality" of my custom race)?

Basically, I think (not a programmer here), is that the operation you/we did caused the game engine to go outside it's normal operating perameters and it generates this message. sometimes one can "esc" out of it, other times "ctrl-alt-del"....depends (in my experience anyways).
