Graph window crash

from Stardock Forums
In 3B I've been having a lot of crashes when looking at the graph window in the main interface. Finally I caught it with smart exception, I think I got it submitted, but here's the log...

Are you getting any messages in your debug.err (the one in your galciv directory, not your drengin folder) about it not being able to find any files?

I'll have to get it to redo the crash since I've played enough since then to not tell what the debug.err says. I'll repost that in a little bit...

Wow, got it to happen even faster this time. Usually after looking at about 3 different stats it crashes, this time only took 2. As for the debug.err, it doesn't appear to have anything of any importance in it. Here's the end of it..

Debug Message: Creating Galaxy
Debug Message: Set galaxy size.
Debug Message: Reading Star Names
Debug Message: Attempt to play unregistered file

The unregistered file message repeats for maybe 20 times. There appears to be a lot of these throughout the file, but that may be normal. I'll save the file if you want me to forward it on to you...
