    Hi,
    I have been experiencing very frequent CTDs when I attempt to save the game (~30-50% chances). The game klinks once, freezes, gets back to desctop and there is a window message asking me if I would like to report the problem.
    Before anybody asks, I have NEVER autosaved/quicksaved and I have read the thread "common issues and solutions" advising not to move characters when saving.

    Is anybody else experiencing the same issue (fairly common and I just have to live with it) or did I somehow drew the jackpot again! :(

    Thanks

    Your saves may be corrupted. If you're using quick-saves, this could be your problem. Never use them.

    @zandor: no autosaves and, like Spike said, no quicksaves...using one or the other or both can cause problems by corrupting saved games. Plus, once they are corrupted, there is no fixing them; they are corrupted permanently.
