has anyone experienced any weirdness at all with 1.4 patch?
my game keeps crashing after 3 min or so of play, i removed all my mods and my saved games and started a new game but still it crashes every time.

Has this issue been resolved at some point? Because I'm having it still, big time. Here's a short summary of my odyssey of the last few days (yes, days), if you want. (Saved game can also be had, if wanted.)
After I hadn't played the game since early/mid June, much less updated anything, for R/L reasons (the awesomeness I got back then worked wonderfully, all this time. What's that about it expires?), I came back here days ago (Tuesday?) to find even more awesomeness that - naturally - I wanted to have. Decided to take a risk and replace my working game with whatever EA is serving in their patches and get the latest AM.
- The first attempt to patch fucked up my game: uninstalled it, fresh install without cc, Riverview or anything at all (couldn't be bothered), patch to 1.4
- Installed the awesomeness (Aug 18 version) including frameworks but forgot to delete cache files. Get to neighborhood without problems, can CAS (something my puter does not like to do normally, it makes it touchy), and Edit Town is no problem either. Can do all that for hours (at least that half hour I spent there). Try to actually play: game crashes, badly, after 3 to five minutes, has Windows throwing tantrums and cry for momma. Lately, it even started to run checkdisk every other time.
- Thinking I messed things up by not deleting cache files, I uninstall, CClean, fresh install, patch, see above. Installed awesomeness (as of 20 Aug). Not forgetting cache files this time around.
- Game keeps crashing EVERY single time, ca. 3 to five (real) minutes after I get into play mode. Can put cribs into various houses in Edit town, build, CAS etc. But not play. Playing without Supreme Commander gives me maybe two minutes more. Saving every minute, after every action does not help. 3booting it does not help, framelimiting does not help. Tried it all. Only thing I didn't try is turning off Awesomestory, as this is why I gave up my working setup in the first place. (And the awesome One said he does not want us to work-around, so there.)
- In the end I tried to alleviate the problem today by downgrading to patch 1.3 and getting today's AM version, which - you guessed from this novel, most probably - did not help.
I'd be very grateful if someone could help me and provide insight into what is going on here. I assume I'm being too stupid?
