Game crashes right after loading city

[Wiimeiser]

I'm getting exactly this now, it appears to be a problem with the RCI but I wouldn't know

It crashes about 15 seconds in, but pausing the game seems to stop it crashing. My city's only just started, so I assume it's to do with building growth. Maybe having more zones than there's demand for confuses the RCI engine?

EDIT: I dezoned all the empty zones and demolished everything else, which confirms with CERTANITY that it's a problem with either the RCI or a certain grown lot.
