[0.8.8] Crash after load/creating new world - Win 7

[m_i-k_i]

Hi,
the game crashes after starting a new game or loading save. It crashes immediately after loading save or after around 2-3 seconds after starting new game. For the newly generated world it crashes after 2-3 seconds after I close the welcome message (pressing tab). I can play through the first level of First Steps. What's interesting I can load save from the first level of the regular campaign but I can't load ones from the second lvl. I tried reinstalling but it didn't help. Any idea what to do?

give us a little more information so we can help you

1) do you have mods?
2) which mods?
3) system specs (could be usefull, but i doubt it here)
4) have you encountered this before?
5) what error does it give? (if any)

I don't use any mods and I didn't download any.
I started playing around a week ago (v 0.7.5). After few hours of play I didn't play it for few days and then I got information about new version. I tried updating through the game but it didn't work for me so I just downloaded new version from the web site. I installed it (installer deinstalled the older version). Then I tried to load old save but the game was crashing so instead I started new campaign (I thought the problem then was with different versions of the game so I wasn't worried too much). I played that day for around 4 hours, saved and exited Factorio. Everything was working just fine. After 2-3 days I wanted to continue but I couldn't load save so I tried investigating different scenarios and wrote the post above.
Factorio just freezes and then the standard Windows message pops up telling me that programme stopped working and Windows is trying to find the solution (which I always interrupt as it doesn't make sense for Windows to look for solutions, it never does...). No errors, no nothing.
I just started playing so I didn't encounter it any time before.

My computer specs:
Windows 7 Professional SP1 (Polish version) 32bit
Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4GHz
4GB RAM
NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS

I believe it may be the tough one but I am full of hopes

Hello, thank you for the report.
If you could upload the save it might be very helpful.

Here you are.

Sorry for getting so late to it, but when I loaded the save it worked without a problem.
It is quite probable that the error was solved in the meantime, let me know if it still happens in 0.10.8 (or 0.10.9 that will be released soon), until then, I'm moving this to resolved problems and bugs.
