I am playing the latest gzdoom and originally thought this problem with just with stronghold. The game on two separate occasions froze up on me and I had to ctrl-alt-del both times. When I went back, the saved game was gone in the game, but it was still listed in my C drive but had no memory in it. Luckily, due to an unrelated issue where my game crashed, I had taken a habit of doing a backup saved game both times.
However, I was playing the new cheogh 3 (also on the latest gzdoom) and after a while, the game froze up again, my save file got erased, and since I wasn't expecting this to happen, I had no backup save and now have to restart from scratch.
It is apparent that this bug is a bug for this version of gzdoom as I have never had this crashing problem in any past gzdoom build.
Game freezes, then corupts/errases save game!

I doubt that very much. Freezes like you describe are often hardware related problems.
