Hiya i have some probs does anyone of you have this prob or had it and now how to solve it.

Since i started to use 2 Ati radeon Sapphire 2600XT HD 512mb in crossfire formation GW has some problems with running i do not have blue screen of death so that is ruled out.
But what i do have is that it just like poof and GW crashes and it's only with GW not with other games like Cabal Online or Doom 3 or C&C3.
You can say don't complain unplug 1 card or don't don't crossfire.
But i wish to resolve it with keeping my current setup.
I tired to reinstall DirectX9 didn't work still have it. and i have heard of another rear thing that sometimes happens with DirectX9 don't know what it whas but it is not very common to happen.

Anyone have a idea what this could be

Does it crash always - like as soon as you start it. Or is it just random.

When it crashes, is it "frozen"? Is there a repeating sound sometimes? Can you hit CTL-ALT-DEL and use the Task Manager, or do you have to reboot?

Is your cpu a dual-core?
