Access violation fault

I am playing my 1st pbem game of GoA. We have completed our Strategic phase of the Sept/Oct 1914 turn and my opponent has sent me his turn. The game loaded fine and I reviewed the air and naval results without problem. However, when I clicked "OK" on the Naval Results Summary page (the one that tells you who controls which seas) I recieved an "Access violation at address..." Fault. I can get rid of the Fault Notice but the yellow "busy" notice near the top right corner never shuts off and I can't do anything. I've reloaded several times with the same result. I've tried rebooting my computer and turning off my anti-virus software, but no luck.

I suppose you'll want me to send you the saved turn file along with my password. Who do I send this too and do you also require my DirectX Diag file?

Thanks for the saves, bug found and fixed. It was a new one I had created in 1.24

Is this bug in every game with the latest patch?

Will there be a fix available soon? Or should I downgrade to the previous version.

Although I could upload the fix right now they don't get posted till Monday so I'll wait till then in case anything else shows up.

Will the fix for this be available soon? This problem is preventing new games started with the 1.24 update from proceeding further.

I was able to get around this error by loading 1.23, finishing the playback (this time without the error), then saving the game once I am in the activation phase, re-loading 1.24, and then playing from there. A pain, but at least we could continue the game.
