Yes, reinstall the game. Sometimes, files get currupt. And expection happens. It did this to me a few days ago, and I couldnt figure it out. I re-installed, and it worked fine

Make sure no system files are corrupted.
Also make sure all drivers are well and hardware works well.

You need to replace all your mapfiles with the originals off the CD. Apparently you messed up one of the map files so bad as to make it unplayable and hence the 'Gathering Exception Data' message.
