When do you crash: Entering Granville, Nerva, Cimmerora (Sek & Lit'l), my bases (& exiting) that I definately recall.
When it happens I usually have one of 3 results:
<ul type="square">[*] the frozen screen then the MS/CoX "we have encountered an Error with your game" message with blank box to add in addition info, which I generally do[*] a complete freeze up that even ctrl+alt+delete doesn't work & I have to hit my computer's reset button (most often occurance, say 2/3 times)[*] & just recently as of yesterday where the ctrl+alt+delete actually Does work & I can shut down the game that way & restart.[/list]The complete freeze up was the most regular (& anoying) occurance up untill yesterday where I was plesantly suprized by the ctrl+alt+delete command actually working for the 1st time in over a week. The game was the only program that would completely freeze out my comp. No other programs triggered that either singly or when runnning simultaniously, only when CoX was running & I was zoning somewhere, usually V side. But that may be cause I'm gaming mainly v side anyways. I've not noticed on other server's but that may only be because Guardian is my home server & I occationally just hang out on a couple of others with some friends.

While loading in after char selection
as far as I know I am the only one with this problem and this toon is the only toon..but I have not contacted anyone else on the SG to find out. And as far as I have founr out this is my only toon affected.
[color=yellow]Loc: St.Marshal Cave Mission Map
Character: Ida Widower lvl 43 Aracnos Fortunata (GW arc but not powers)
SG: Rogue Ilse Marine Corps
Server: Guardian
What Occured: @ about 7:52pm MST Feb 4th was just inside Team & SG mate Arktikal's lvl 50 mish- Defeat all Devouring Earth & was Lackeyed to him running my 4 toggles. was afk couple minuted grabbing drink came back & game & comp was completely frozen. Ctrl + Alt + Del didn't work at all & I had to hit my comp's reset button. Once restarted I clicked back on game & had the verifying files occure b4 able to go next.
Loc: Cap Au Diable Blackmarket
Character: Sekmet's Fel Blood lvl 50 Rad/Therm/ GW Corr
SG: Rogue Ilse Marine Corps
Server: Guardian
What Occured: @ about 10:31pm MST Feb. 4th- Had just gotten to the BM with some lag spots on the way from Oroborus exit point & clicked on the BM Rep when the CoX/MS error message came up. Once I filled it out with my details & hit send, game shut down with no problem & I was able to restart it with the usual file verification run b4 hitting next.
Due to buzy life I'll keep track of these crashes but likely won't report all daily instances till I'm ready to shut down for the night. My game time is very prescious to me as it is to many other players (Especially those of us whom use the game to detox or destress).

Sekmet's Fel Blood- lvl 50 Rad/Ther/GW Corr
Server: Guardian
Character Name: All of them
SG/VG Name: Pixicide Inc
When do you crash: Entering my Base
Does it affect all characters: I have had 4 on one account and 2 on the other.
Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's: Both my accounts are my VG. No one else is part of it atm.
I do have an open ticket with support under my secondary account. Reference # 090206-000173
The screen will just not load. I have to manually kill the process and reload the game. Of Course I get the account is already logged in message and the "Character Name is still logging out message" Supposrt had been able to unstick my characters, but the root of the problem still exsists.
The first character it happened to was around 5pmCST on Thursday Feb 5th. I I ctried a couple of times after that. Then about 8:30pm CST.
I had an issue before where all but the character still logging out happened. I tried those suggestions and they were a no go.
If I can help in anyway let me know. I am in and out of the game most of the day and late night CST.

What Occured: I was solo returning to Cap Au Diablo via Oroborus at about 10:37 pm MST last night (fri.feb 6) when as Cap load screen came up the game froze. Thankfully the Ctrl + Alt + Del command works though it took 3 tries with program manager itself to exit the program. But at least it worked & I didn't have to shut my comp down.

SG/VG Name: Guardian's Refuge
When do you crash: Zoning
Does it affect all characters: yes
Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's: only my characters in the SG
This started about Sat, 2/7, for me.
I've re-installed my nVidia drivers and CoX to no avail. I've even uninstalled/reinstalled the Netgear NIC.
Some times I "crash" back to the Log In screen, some times I get the "Report this to Microsoft" nvoglnt.dll crash error.
I'm in the San Fran Bay Area and my ISP is SBC Yahoo.
I wonder if this could be related to the /Sync problem
Server: Virtue
Character Name: Mover and Shaker
SG/VG Name: Profit, Incorperated
When do you crash: When loading in to that character.
Does it affect all characters: No, only him.
Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's/VG's: No. Only him.
And, I'd like to add, that it only happened when I started to zone into Grandville. Methinks it's a gfz card issue, as my Nvidia burnt out, and I'm using my backup ATI Radeon 9200. I've a new Nvidia on order, as well. If this is seen before Friday, Feb. 13th, 2009, would it be possible to just -move- the character's location? Away from Grandville?
Server: Guardian
Character Name: Arachnid Huntress, Future Imperfect
SG/VG Name: none
When do you crash: when trying to zone or log into a character who'd previously crashed
Does it affect all characters: no, so far just those in Mercy and Port Oaks
Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's: Neither character so far are in a VG.
more if I encounter more bugged characters.
Edit: Add Poison Bloom's Pet to the list, also on guardian server. Level 19, in a VG. Seems that trying to zone into a mission or pocket D is the trigger.

Occurance: Was at Cap Au Diable BM clicked on vender & under 1 min the "City of Heroes has encountered a problem & needs to close." Message came up, so I added all the above details & came here to cut & paste them also. Though I think the only reason this happens alot with my SoA is cause she's the main toon I'm currently working on.
Man it's getting to the point I'm going to save a WP doc with the form format to make it easier to fill out detail!

Let me guess, your running an ATI card? If so it sounds like the issue your having is you need to turn on your fast write option under the smartgart tab in CCC. Some older ATI cards crash 50% of the time, or more, whenever you click on a contact, vendor, or try to check another players info, if fast write isn't enabled.
If it's not an ATI card then I guess it's back to the drawing board :/

PLEASE fix this! I can't play the game because all my characters now crash upon logging in. I am not gonna renew if this isn't fixed when my renew date comes up. Why pay for a game I can't play? Seriously, this is annoying. The valentines day patch seems to have broken the game in the worst way I can imagine.

Yeah, I agree this is [censored]. What is the point of paying to play a game when you can't play it? I've *never* had any bug like this with Guild Wars, a free-to-play MMO of comparible quality to this game.
This is most definitely not the way to convince me to keep playing after my first month!

SG/VG Name: JUSTUS (VG)
When Do You Crash: Immediately after clicking on a transfer. 2x mission door, 3x base teleporter, 1x choosing character to log in.
Does it affect all characters: These are the only ones that I've had problems with so far but I've not been playing the full spectrum as much.
Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's: So far, only affecting characters from JUSTUS under my login. Others in the VG haven't had this problem and a character I have on Champion has not had this issue despite extensive playtime.
On occasion (4x Feb17 and 6x since start of Spring Event but never before that) I click on a mission door or other transfer point and my machine immediately reboots.
Thank you for the efforts.

Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's: No; the problem is unrelated to SG/VG bases. I can crash at any time without warning whether I'm in a fight or I've left the computer to make something to eat.
There is no problem with my RAM, video card drivers, or any of the normal things to check for, and I do not crash out of any other games besides CoX. Of note is that I never experienced this problem until yesterday, even with the V-Day Event patch in.

[color=yellow]Not my ATI card, since is less then 2 years old & this problem didn't start occuring till after i13 hit. Had no occurance like this on a regular basis at all. Hubby even doubled checked since he's the one that built the comp.

More information about character crashing:
Hero side all characters crash upon login during the load screan
Villain side, characters are initially playable. I can log into them just fine if I hadn't logged in since the valentines day patch. It's only after I try entering a mission or a different zone that they start to crash.

Madam Enigma's History
Server: Justice
Character Name: Artemis Rayvyn
SG/VG Name: Department of Metahuman Affairs
When do you crash: Trying to log in with the character who is in Recluse's Victory
Does it affect all characters: No
Does it affect only characters in one or more SG's or VG's: No
The loading progress bar when I try to load in with Artemis gets to around 30%, freezes for two seconds then the screen goes black and I get a (program not responding) text. After a minute it will boot me back to the login screen.
