At certain times the forest serenades the stars and draws them nearer but they won't mind if we dance.
I am getting a sound loop that causes my pc to either go to a blue screen, turn off or just have the screen go black. I have been having that same problem since I13 dropped. I was fine up until then. The first one caused me to lose out on a posi tf and I almost lost out on a synapse tonight because it. Its really starting to frustrate me.

Does it affect all characters: no so far
Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's: just one character so far.
Starting to affect other characters. Re-listing:
Server : Virtue
Characters : Aumakua, Obake, Rownderbowt, Grotus
SG / VG : Huaka'i Po (Aumakua, Obake, Rownderbowt); Zen of Violence (Grotus)
When : Everywhere. Mostly when entering / exiting a map, sometimes right in the middle of nowhere. Could be in the middle of a mass battle, or just standing there with no one else around.
Characters affected : Listed above
SGs affected : I have 5 of my characters in Huaka'i Po, and no one else is in the SG. Likewise, Zen of Violence is my VG, and only has Grotus.
One other thing I've noticed when the crash happens and I need to re-verify files, at the end, I usually get the following:
Downloading file manifest
Fixing file : player.pigg
Fixing file : sound3.pigg
Edit : Fixing file : SoundMusic1.pigg

Do you have a character that is crashing at the map loading screen?
Does this crash affect only a few of your characters and not all?
Are all of the crashing characters from the same Super Group or Villain Group?
If you have answered Yes to the above three questions then please post here with the following information:

Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's:
We have uncovered a bug that is affecting some groups, in cases like this there are usually a few more select groups, so we'd like to help CS find you and get you back up and running.

I got my issues fixed, it was a video card settings issue which had to be changed in my BIOS. I hope solutions are found for everyone soon.
