Crash upon loading game world

[snakeater]

Sorry to contribute to the crash threads, the games fantastic, but here we go...

First installed the game, ran fine, next day, crashes with the famous 'send error report' box while loading a save. Reinstalling fixed it. Now, 4 days later, reinstalling no longer fixes it...
All drivers up to date.

From this, I can tell that the game world loads, and indeed when it crashes with the dialouge box I can hear the game sometimes actually running.

Any help would be appriciated, thanks!

EDIT:

restarting the PC after the uninstall seems to work; but the game still needs to be re-installed after several start ups o.O
