K I've been having issues with game client crashing when I try and play after 10pm est. I can play all day long, log in and out, go play another game, come back to PW. Have run other games while PW is alt tabbed out. Never any crashes. Then every night for the last 3 nights right at 10-11pm est the game will just start crashing. Will restart computer, run verify on it, still crashes. It will crash within 2-3 mins of loading the game. I've tried logging onto different characters in different areas, same result every time. Last night I totally uninstalled and deleted the game, defragged my computer, then redownloaded and installed PW, followed with a defrag again. Played all day fine as can be, and then at 10pm logged in to play some more and crashed again. I have double checked to make sure I am not running a virus scan at this time. My virus scan is scheduled to run at 4AM every morn, so that is not an issue. Have restarted computer twice, same thing. Even went so far as to turn all my graphic settings down to bare minimum and does that same thing.
So my question is after all this is, what the heck is going on, and what can I do to fix it? If anyone has any ideas, let me know please, thanks :)

    that is the most random problem I have ever heard of. make sure no tasks are scheduled for that time frame, and do some manual defrags and disc checks.

    Same here, but my time frame is random, Two in the afternoon (my time) then fine after 4ish. Then again after 10.. I have NO idea if this is a result of the new patches or what!? But I have also tried to reinstall and still the same results! Any clues on what's happening?

    If this problem is only 10-11 then its possible this is the time your ISP does regular maintenance or something and so your internet would be updating at this time. Theres nothing you can do if it is but it might be an effect from your internet updating back at its origin or something.
