As soon as I load up Guild Wars, my computer freezes, and doesn't come out of it. I can't do anything to unfreeze it, and I have to pull out the battery and charger just to turn it off. I use a Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT card, and I just can't figure it out. My computer is working fine if I don't run Guild Wars, but as soon as I do, it just freezes, and I have never had this problem before. I have an 80 GB harddrive, and 2 gigs of ram, I'm also on a MacBook Pro, using Boot Camp for Windows to play.
Edit: Thanks for moving this. I think I have narrowed the problem down to the automatic shut off temperature. How do I access the BIOS on Windows (or Mac) to change the temperature?

Just try to reinstal and pray 1st thing. Its almost always worked for me with many other games. The graphics card was my first idea n now that uve said that it sounds likely to b the problem.

No actually, I have had the same problem. It wasn't the shut-off temp. My Macbook Air doesn't seem to have that function, So it seems the last update from A-Net broke the game when running on Mac Hardware. A quick fix is just to -image it. That seems to fix the problems.

That's exactly what my PC is doing - it will run for days until I try to play GW, then it locks up. I did the -image also, and it didn't work for me - hope it does for you!
