Quest Problem

[kthulhu]

I've had this problem at least twice. Either quest I choose for one of my warriors (17th season) causes the game to become unresponsive during the resolution phase of the turn when the warrior is supposed to return from the quest. The cursor changes shape and it looks like it is preparing for the "Quest Completed" screen, then nothing happens. I alt-control-delete out of the program and the Task Manager says the Coliseum program is unresponsive. I sell or dismiss the warrior on the quest and the program still locks up. I've exited, turned off the computer, and even reinstalled the program (when it locked up previously during season 7) with patches (to 1.6) and still no go. I've assigned different warriors to the quests and tried the quests again at the start of next season. Same problem. I believe this same problem also occured once when I played the demo, though at the time I thought the lockup occured because of the death of my warrior (death screen.) Any suggestions?
