Interesting Win7 Crash...

Was on the character selection screen, went to load into the game, and got an odd error. (Reminds me a of a BSOD, but a little more explicit.)

The error is as follows::

Assertion failed

Program: ...am Files (x86)\City of Heroes\CityOfHeroes.exe
Time: Sat Aug 01 10:45:42 AM
Process ID: 3900
File: c:\src\utilitieslib\utils\superassert.c

Error Message: CRT abort() called

Last windows SYSTEM error: Not enough storage is available to process this command.


DxDiag can be made available if needed, but this is an isolated (I hope, since it's never happened before) event, and didn't show any errors which I could spot. However, the error very specifically said "Please report this to Cryptic Studios on the beta forums", but since it's from the live version, figured I'd drop it here instead. (That and I haven't figured out precise navigation of this new forum layout *just* yet.)

As an aside, yes, I am in fact aware of the irony of a bug saying to let Cryptic know, when they are no longer developing Co*. Still, I'm assuming that whatever infrastructure they had in place to troubleshoot this specific type of issue (whatever it is) passed on, or that otherwise it's known how to deal with this.

(Like I said above, I'm hoping this is an isolated issue... I've been back in game since that message with no issues beyond the odd mapserver, which is expected for double-XP weekend. Just seemed odd, so when it asked me to report it, I didn't think twice. >.>)
