Game closes down - no error msg.

[apio]

for me this problem only occurs when i log into the game and start exping / whatever else WITHOUT zoning once. I have never had the game close itself on my after i have done 1 "safety zone".

Just try zoning 1 time / switching characters, before you start playing. It should fix the issue. PS: If you crash for another reason (ie: reset device failed, etc.), and have to restart the client, don't forget to zone after that, because the bug WILL reappear

The problem with most of these "fixes" are that the crashes are so random and sometime have such a large gap in between them it can seem like something has worked when it in fact hasn't.

I have posted probable fixes for this problem twice before, just because as the last poster says, it is possible to go days between incidences (though I have also crashed 3X in one sitting). Well here is another probable fix.

I set the launching short cut's compatibility to XP SP2. So far so good. I have had 2 instances since I did this where the screen goes black for a micro second. Never saw this before. However, I have not crashed to desktop. I am thinking those quick black screens would have been crashes before my latest change. Give it a try.

i started zoning before i exp and this bug hasn't happened again. The only instance where i actually crashed was when i "forgot" to zone and just logged in in a zone and started fighting. Just try it out, if it doesn't solve your problem, please report it here.
