Default Crash every 2-5 minutes

I am having an issue where I crash every time that I attack or cast a spell. All of the installations worked before I moved. Has anyone heard of this issue? Or know what might be causing it?

If I sit online and do nothing but chat, I don't dc also if that helps.

It sounds like a UI file is messed up. What UI are you using?

I've had the exact same issue the last couple times I logged in.

I've been using the same deafult.old UI since i started on here years ago.

I started using wineq2 to see if that would help fix it, but no dice.

I updated my drivers and DirectX, but no improvement there, either.

Let me try differently sorry. Sometimes a persons UI file for a toon becomes unstable. I didnt mean how I worded how I did. Sometimes you have to delete the character UI and then log in.

Can test it easy. If you can log on different toons or accounts and not have the issue then that is the cause. This is the only thing I have seen to cause this issue. Test it out and lets see.

I know you say its happening on two different computers. I had the same issue. I don't know why it happens but it did for me. Maybe the way I configure my ui, in game settings or ssomething. Worth a shot to see.

Yea i had this problem, it was the chat boxes with my UI, if i resized them to big or to small it would crash me instantly than randomly until i figured it out. Fixed now but i had to reset the ui and be careful how i sized my windows.

Hah now that you mention it... I crash if I close out UI boxes or make them as small as I can. I also had some window pop up during combat. I think it was some window I had made for random combat spam and it would crash me. Once I removed it everything was fine.
