Sins Forums
Currently, The game has started to crash after it runs for about 2-5mins. When three hours ago I had no problem, everything was running smoothly. I was wondering if someone else had this problem and fixed it, or if it is a rare occurence in this build of the game.
Please and Thank You

If the game was just runing fine earlier in the day, but is now failing after a very short time, you might want to check if your system is having heat issues.
You mean after you load a saved game? Because, I have that problem too but each time it happens there is some sort of mini dump. If not, then nevermind.
ya my game crashes after about 5 minutes after i load a saved game too. But i dont get any kind of minidump error, it just says Sins of a Solar empire has stopped working and must close or something like that. I have vista if that is important. And my computer is not overheating.
My computer is not overheating either, I'm running Windows Xp x64. I get the same error. as you Onicrom
Edit:
Sins cause a memory dump into my temp files I have a full list of all the dumps of you are intrested.
If you're getting minidumps, definitely send them in to [email protected] with any additional details you can provide.
If it's Entrenchment that's crashing around game start, try dropping your texture quality settings (the entire top row). This fix has been suggested by IC (the Entrenchment beta is currently not very optimized so there are memory issues) and works for those affected by it. No guarantee that it's the cause of your guys' crashes, but it's worth a try.
for some reason, the crashes on save games that i have is without entrenchment and with entrenchment the game crashes a few minutes after starting a new game. This, just like the save game crashes, is not a minidump. Instead, I just get a message that pops up saying that Sins has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have found that it is not related to any particular action on my part too.
Once I changed the detail on everything from highest to high setting the problem fixed it's self.
i tried that too and it worked for a few hours but it did eventually crash. I got an error message saying that sins requested a runtime to be executed in an unusual way and needed to be closed.
Yeah, I'd wait for the next Entrenchment build hopefully next week. I'm guessing they'll do an optimization pass so it behaves better 
So far this seems to be working great now AND now the mines don't fluctuate for me. Before, they would fluctuate between in and out of phase so it seems, for at least now against TEC, with lower settings the mines won't being in flux.
