You might want to check that you've got the latest video drivers for your monitor.. Just out of curiosity, what are your system specs please?

Firstly, welcome to the forums.

It only happens there, I haven't been able to complete it yet (got me 3 stashes done missing the last one) and I can't drop it. 
[/ QUOTE ]You can't drop it because the Outbreak mission from Radio is a badge mission. Once it's completed you'll get the Plague Carrier badge.

Thanks for your replies.
it seems to be a problem of mine though. happened again while playing a newspaper mission.
I looked in my system logs, and it seems to a be a kernel error (blue screen stuff, only I don't get the blue screen), along with "invalid parameters" sent to my video card.
I have:
Asus P5BE motherboard (IIRC)
Intel DualCore Duo 2.13 Ghz
2Gb RAM
Radeon X1950 Pro graphic card 256mb DDR3
I'm running CoH in 1280x1024, and it started getting freaky only today. Pretty strange.
I'll defrag, update drivers and see what happens.
Thanks for your help!! 
If you're running Vista on a multi-core system, then it's possible that the hotfix in this thread will help.
It did for me.

forgot to say I run on Xp Pro. 
Installing new drivers (guess what, released last week) right now, I'll let you know if I keep having this issue.
thanks again!
First post and already up with tech issues. :P
While playing the radio mission involving stashing the outbreak in the Hero city, after a few minutes the game crashes abruptely switching off my monitor.
It only happens there, I haven't been able to complete it yet (got me 3 stashes done missing the last one) and I can't drop it.
I don't know if it's a bug or something, but I asked myself if it's just me (so I'll check my settings once again), or if others happened to have the same problem.
Thank you all!
