I've never really posted too much on the forums, mainly just lurking, perhaps a random post here or there, but mainly a lurker. I haven't even had the words to post in the official announcement yet... But, one of my favorite threads ever was the one I read about Sister Flame's exploits and I had to comment.

It was great reading about not only how this game helped Sister Flame learn to read and love superheroes, but showcased what a great community we have (not had, have, the community will still live on in some way...) in the game.

p.s. The Scarlet Speedsters are also my favorite superhero and I will indeed be watching the new season of Doctor Who.

p.p.s. Which of the Scarlet Speedsters is Sister Flame's favorite?

I've been having an issue where I'll play the game for 5 to 15 minutes and then it will freeze the system. I can't even alt+tab or alt+ctrl+del to get out, I have to use the power button to turn off the whole computer. Here is the CoHHelper file.

Any help/assistance is appreciated. Especially if anyone knows where I can get updated drivers for my video card. Nvidia doesn't seem to have my particular card listed in their driver download area.
