Seems when i go through the 4-5 menus even taking two minutes to three minutes per click to save and end the game, I have the most failures. Think I'll stick to saving and waiting a few minutes then resuming. Wait a minute after resume and just quit the game. Anybody else find this more stable?

Yes. That does seem to be "proper technique"... though as KM mentions, somewhat mod-dependent also.
My guess is that the game has a read AND a write buffer for the hard drive, the write buffer being the "slow poke", and therein lies the trouble when you don't "pause", but who knows?
