The SE4 companion - Why the long wait?.

Ok...had a problem today...

D/L new PBW game turn...put in Savegame dir. Tried to pull up History 1.4 prog and I get the following error:

-----------------------------------------------
Access violation at address 00404CDA in module 'History.exe'. Read of address 010100F9.
-----------------------------------------------

I looked into the hisory.ini file...(it is an .ini right?) And this is what it had in there:

-----------------------------------------------
D:\Sean's Games\Space Empires IV Gold\Savegame
1
notreade@D:\Sean's Games\Space Empires IV Gold\Savegame|09!3
1
notreade@D:\Sean's Games\Space Empires IV Gold\Savegame\notreade.gam
True

----------------------------------------------
Then I tried some reinstalling and stuff...which didn't correct the problem...I also tried it with a saved game I had available...and it worked fine...this is what .ini file looked like:

-------------------------------------------------
D:\Sean's Games\Space Empires IV Gold\Savegame
1
TDM-Mod@D:\Sean's Games\Space Empires IV Gold\Savegame|01!2
1
TDM-Mod@D:\Sean's Games\Space Empires IV Gold\Savegame\TDM-Mod.gam
True

-------------------------------------------------

Not sure what happened...the saved game works fine...thankfully...there are all the entries in the history file up to that point...I just can't access them now via the History prog. Could this be some issue with the saved game file itself?

Any idea what happened, and possibly how to fix it?
