"Oh look, its my desktop" :(

I don't really know what to post...
I am using 1.01 and I am playing the Scadinavian version.
I have been playing HOI for 2 days now, the first day was fine, not crashing at all. Now Its crashing to deskop (cant really call it crash, more like goes to desktop). Every time I play a game for more then 5 min.
There is no error message or anything, just "ok, where to deploy that..." POOF! "Oh look, its my desktop"

I uninstalled and reinstalled the game (and the patch) and still no luck Also this is the only game on my system that has this problem. (Earth and Beyond used to, but after the last patch it works fine).

LOL, maybe I will take it back and get medieval: Total war
and pic this game up again in a few months and hope it works better.

Comp specs

ATI: Radeon 8500LE 128megs (latest drivers)
VIA chipset (latest 4n1 drivers)
Athlon T-BIrd 1300
384 megs of sd ram
SB live! Value (latest drivers)

Its not a saved game prob, it's any game.

Is it always approximately the same game date?

I thought it was, but now it happens whenever it feels like it. I just played for an hour and it happened 4 times in that hour, sorry but thats a llttle too much for me.
