Steve,

I don't know if this helps, but I only get the crash when the SH tries 
to save the game.  I've taken to turning off my T3 and then pressing 
the ToDo button to turn it on again, which seemed to work for a while, 
but then it started crashing, but only during one game.  After I 
completed that game, and performed the same "work-around" at the create 
system screen, it stopped.  I then tried several times to play quick 
games, during which the system would crash if I left the program, but 
after which would not crash as I was at the create screen.

I don't know if this is helpful, but I hope so.  Good luck!

Thanks,
Andrew
