I was just playing UFO.. something odd happened. The research complete screen came up, but then it showed me the live cyberdisc information. Now, I haven't even fought a cyberdisc in this particular game yet, let alone capture and research one. Then when I clicked okay, the game stopped and I was back in windows. How annoying.

can you remember the live cyberdisc info? its got nothing to do with you problem, but I've never managed to capture a live one and was wondering what the info said.

Um, not really, but I'm sure you can find a UFOpaedia somewhere online.

Yeah actually, I think it was a Floater Medic... that's supposed to happen? Well, I'm pretty sure the quitting to Windows still wasn't supposed to happen.

Yes, it's normal for a medic to give you such info, but you're right that quitting to windows isn't. Unfortunately, your saved game is probably corrupt. Do you have an earlier one?

When you research an Alien medic they give information about other aliens... but I don't recommend researching them because it's not the same (for the game) if you capture and research the real aliens.

I have a MUCH older saved game.. sigh. I'm going to try taking all my scientists off researching the Floater medic and see if I have any errors.

Apparently it was just the Floater medic causing the problem. I took all my scientists off the researching him project, and now I'm months later into the game.
