Its happened 5 times in the last two days. Its not my computer overheating... I have run doom 3 and other hardware intensive games and not had problems. Any ideas? I can't find anything in the tech database on guildwars.com

There is nothing in my error log because the entire computer restarts. It hasn't ever happened before.

no problem, anytime. Did your client already update itself?

it would be it overheating.. im running an 2.8p4 1gig ram and a x800 pro.. the card overheats when AA is on.. this doesnt happen in ANY other games.. turn AA off if its on..

It hasn't restarted since I turned off Post-Process Effects. I'm hoping that fixed it. Sorry for the spam, thaks guys.

Shame that such a large problem is so widespread.

actually it's a shame that the company hasn't said anything about it, and denying that the client is the problem...let alone it not getting fixed yet.
