Yes they were all 4b games but they were all overwrites of 4a games wonder if that makes the difference.

try deleting the files in your My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2\temp folder, as well as any .shipclass files in your Data folder and any .shipcfg files in your shipcfg folder that have _UD_ in their name.  That should clear out any old data.

Wouldn't it be a better option to put the selfmade designs in the My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2\temp folder as wel ?

/edit.....
Whoops never mind... misread it... there allready in My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2

When you load a saved game and it crashes, you may want to check the debug file. If the last line is something like "Debug Message: Can't find ship type FighterG+PMk1 in definitions" then you may have made a ship design obsolete or you may have deleted it. If so, see thread https://www.galciv2.com/Forums.aspx?ForumID=274&AID=92508
