I've been running Kings Bounty on my XP 64bit since it was released and havent experienced a crash yet. Whats your hardware? What version of video card driver you using? Do you happen to have the C++ Redistributables installed?

[mikei]

I'm using x64 sp2 and no problems, except some slowdown after a lot of playing, but an alt-tab solves this problem.
My config: Asus m2n-e (nforce 570ultra), amd Athlon x2, ati radeon hd3870, 2gb ddr2.

Count me down as another XP 64 user experiencing this issue. Windows components & drivers are all up to date.

I can play for anywhere from under a minute (crashing as soon as the menu screen comes up), to half an hour (I once reached the adventure map outside the training area). Most often of the times I've tried to play, the crash will occur in either the first or second training room.

The behavior of the crash is exactly like that described by others in the thread. I get a Microsoft Visual C++ runtime error, with no significant details, and have been submitting the error reports (in the hopes that they will make their way to 1C).

Dxdiag dump follows.
