I have been playing M&B since 0.630
and installed the updates till 0.703

After the install of 0.703 I encounter the following error. I can play M&B normally but when I try to exit the game and return to Windows, XP just crashes and system reboots itself..

There seems to be a problem with "options"file, because its get mentioned every time when the system scans for errors at boot, after the fatal crash... (game isnt saving the options that I change, everytime when I restart M&B , I have to turn off music again..etc.etc)

Any suggestions, tips?

If this has been discussed before, then just close this topic. As a punishment I will walk around naked in Zendar...Then you people can throw tomatoes at me...
 
This bug has been mentioned before, yet I'm unure if anyone found a work-around for it.

Have you tried a full uninstall and then re-install 0.703? Make sure that after the uninstallation ... you delete the mount&blade folder.

Sorry I can't help more,

If you uninstall and install the game, does the registration disappears? I mean, must I enter the reg code again?
 
Go into control panel -> system -> advanced -> startup and recovery
Uncheck the reboot on error box
With any luck, you should get a BSOD error before the crash.

Two things to try which may be a quick fix:

1. Right click on the options file. Make sure it isn't set to read only

2. Run a diskcheck on a full surface scan (automatically fix errors).

If the above doesn't work, then uninstall, delete the folder and reinstall. That should sort it out. Not sure if you need to re-enter the serial number, though I would assume it would from a clean install.
