Well, I've been out of game for the previous week. Now that I'm back, I can play no longer than 300 seconds. At any attempt to combat or open WW menus, my screen goes black as if my display were no longer receiving data. I have to hard reboot to fix the condition. Here's what I am running. This system was built locally for the sole purpose of running CoX. It has been in service since August 2007.
