I updated to 1.09N and started my first game. As I walked through the wizard to start the game, it took much too long to cycle through each page. Once I got through the wizard, as it loaded my game, it took me to the desktop, showed a DX Error, and then crashed.
This is in Windows 7 64-bit. Previous versions of Elemental have ran much better and more reliably. The only difference is that I have more recent Nvidia drivers.
