Game suddenly closes down

Hi, as you can read in the subject box my game just closes down. I get no error message so I have no idea what the problem is.
I have the 3.0.4 patch.
Can I do anything about this?
Please help, this is really annoying

well, from all my experiences with sudden game crashing the save game pretty much becomes useless, you could try msg'ing Riz over at the SI boards and he might be able to get it working again. Does this only happen to one save game? When you're pressing continue, when loading....

Are you using any edited data?

Editing is usually a cause of most problems.

No, this happens on all my saves. But the saves are still playable when I start the game again.
It happens when I'm looking at other teams, clicking on a player to see the info and then go back to previous screen.

Well, I'm using the tbl db and a db from fmsweden. But I've done some editing, nothing much, just a player or two.

I don't see a reason for contacting the Riz, you can try some stuff for yourself.

First try playing with an original database for a while, to see if the problem is in the data or your computer. If it still crashes, then it's most probably your computers fault, although I'm 99% sure it's the database thing.

If using a clean, unedited database doesn't help, you should uninstall the game (make sure you have your purchase info to re-register the game with e-license) and install it fresh, then patch it again. Something could've been corrupted along the way.
