Update the drivers for your video card. The ones you have are two years old.
Don't count your weasels before they pop dink!
Looks like your running Windows Defender and Norton?
C:\Program Files\Norton Internet Security\Engine\16.8.0.41\coIEPlg.dll
\Run: [Windows Defender] %ProgramFiles%\Windows Defender\MSASCui.exe -hide
May cause conflicts if their overlapping protection.
Lots of toolbars and misc programs running in the back ground on that 3 GB memory prob not helping either? I'd consider tryin to shut some down that your not using.

Ok. This might well be fixed somewhere in these sacred halls of knowledge and wisdom that is the Tech forums. But cursed with weak search-fu and the fact that most of what you are talking about in here might as well be in latin. I have just the vaguest clue.
The problem:
CoH works lika charm as it has ever done. GR on the otherhand is behaving like a baby with toothache. It crashes several times a night. Mostly it happens when I click something that will change the screen or pop up. Like entering a mission, leveling up, talking to a contact. The game then freezes and I have to start over.
As far as I remember I haven't crashed once whilst in a mission. If that means anything to you all.

Though I haven't the foggiest about what you can see in this seemingly random list of numbers I do hope you can point me towards some sort of resolution to this mildly annoying problem.
