I've been having alot of problems with the client crashing while trying to resize the window.

This happens on multiple machines running Windows XP SP3 running different graphics cards (Intel integrated, ATI/nVidia agp cards, nVidia PCI-x card.

Also, the client crashes after recovering from Windows XP standard screen saver.

    Do you set it to lock your computer(s) when the screensaver goes on?

    Try setting your display settings to just turn your monitor/screen off after X amount of time instead of the screensaver popping up and see if that changes anything

    Easiest fix is not to let your computer go into hybration mode meaning no screensaver no nothing which may reduce the performance.

    But that still doesn't fix the issue of resizing the window/crashing. I guess the next easiest fix would be not to resize my window when playing.

    make sure you have all your pc's drivers updated to the latest updates.

    make sure you have verified each client.

    east asian language packs (I have found) are a must have if you intend to let the game client loose focus without it crashing (resizing the window counts as loosing focus). try installing those and see how things work out.
