I've seen this mentioned in a few places, but none of the solutions offered have alleviated my problem.

I've a Steam (EDIT: *and* a GOG) copy of D:OS:EE that I've played for ~20 hours, perhaps four months ago, on the same computer upon which I'm attempting to play again now:

- i7 7700k
- 2x8GBs Corsair DDR4 PC 3000 RAM
- nVidia GTX1080/8GBs (390.65 drivers)
- Samsung 960 Pro, 1TB
- Windows 10x64 Pro

All current, official, WHQL drivers;
No overclocking/overvolting.

I erased all my old save games (including quick saves, deliberate saves and auto saves) in the hopes of starting a fresh campaign.

Two new characters, "start new game"...but the game freezes after each and every auto save or quick save.

I have attempted:

1. Steam/GOG Galaxy File Verification (both successful),
2. delete contents of LevelCache folder,
3. delete entire Larian Studios folder from my Documents folder,
4. Create different in-game profile(s),
5. Uninstall game(s) entirely, delete install folders, run reg-cleaner, restart computer and reinstall game(s) fresh from Steam/GOG.

Game still freezes on all attempts to save.

Any ideas, y'all? frown
