I would suggest removing your IP address asap, so people dont see it. My best guess is you dont have enough memory or something in your computer is overheating.

what kinda comps do you guys have cause even when i crash i dont get error messages like that. i just get error messages.

anyways if you have DSL then play GW without your browser running ie. shut down yahoo or whatever before you start to play. this SHOULD help, something about them both being in constant update or something slows comps way the hell down. other than that all i can say is doa virus scan and get used to it

Well... you did try reinstalling GW right?

Also reinstall Windows. It's a software problem IMO.

Looks like memory problem to me, either bad RAM or heat problems.

I'd recommend running Memtest86+ and StressPrime 2004 on blended mode first to make sure there is no hardware problems.

Also, do other games crash?

Post the results, if there's something wrong with your memory StressPrime will be able to detect it. If it's a memory problem, you'll have to buy new RAM.

You can try running with one module at a time and see if just one of them is broken.

What are the full specs of the computer, what model motherboard, memory and processor? You can use CPU-Z to find out the info on processor and motherboard, best to look at the side of the RAM module what model markings it has.

My vote is bad RAM also.

Sounds like he overclocked the RAM in the first place? 0_o Never knew you could do that.

You certainly can. Pretty much all BIOSes have settings for RAM clockspeed, timings, latencies and such. Some BIOSes have those tuning menus hidden under a key combination, some allow more configuration, some less.
