Random freezes

Guild wars started freezing randomly when loading cities/outposts etc about 2 weeks ago, this in itself was annoying because it meant i had to restart my PC whenever it happened. This only happened rarely though but sometimes more than others.

Moreover, just today the game has started to freeze while i was playing it, which just happened during the Thunderhead keep mission, which was bloody annoying because we were just about to complete it.

Ive tried reinstalling the game to no effect but nothing else. The game forked fine, no freezes for the first 2 weeks i had it so the only thing i can think of is the updates. Any help appreciated.

Yeah same kinda problem here except i had game since release and it ran perfect till just couple days ago and it started crashing-comp screen blacks out music stops and i have to turn comp of by power. That was annoying as it happened about 4 times in missions, and now after crashing again i turned off, restarted and GW isnt even playable-screen is totally fuzzed with lines across it so playing is hopeless. Tried reinstalling andthat didnt help. All other games run fine just GW thats messed up. Seems my bro's comp is working fine next to me..lucky bugger.

Fanum: sounds to me like you fried your video card(the lines across the screen and the fuzz)....can you take a screen shot and either post/link it here or PM me with it?
