Is anyone else seeing the no ship icon at beginning of the turn bug?

In mid to late game.  I've upgraded DA, reinstalled.

Not every turn.  I know there will be new ships but they don't show up at the beginning of the turn.

I can find them on the planets and launch by searching the planets.

I am trying to figure out what is going on here.  I am having the trouble with the latest version of DA 2.0xx.

Running on a 6 month old Dell with Vista SP1.  3 gig memory.

I moved the game to my old XP SP2 computer with 1 gig mem.  With DA 1.80g.  No problems.  Ship icons show up on every move in my mid to late game.  Now I believe I was having the same problem on my newer computer using 1.80g (if that was the last major revision prior to 2.0.)  Now I don't seem to have any problems running other programs on my newer Vista computer.  But right now for me at least the difference seems to be XP vs. Vista.  I don't hate Vista like some people.  But...

I have seen others complain of this problem.  But not a lot.  It looks like Impulse archived 1.80g when I installed 2.0 on my newer computer.  I tried to restore it but it says it cannot.  Maybe that is because I have the newest TA installed.

I may have to trash TA to play DA and go back to an even earlier version of DA to play on my new computer.

I have found more bizarre behavior.  When I get no ship icons, I can go to the colony button and look for them one by one.  Launch them.  Later that turn they are back on the planet unlaunched.   I have made lists of planets to recheck them.  Launching them again usually works.  Since I have had this problem 1.8x and so have some others.  Not sure what to do.

Is anyone else seeing this?  Maybe it is my system with DA Vista 3gb.

Several others have reported seeing this.  See link above.

Happens on big universes, lots of ships, late in game.  Will fix itself temporarily after saving and restarting.

The devs will not respond to me.
