Random Crashes

Ok I'm playing PWI on Windows 7 now, but either since Windows 7 was installed or since one of the patches, PWI has been crashing many times each play session. It happens when I click something usually, whether it be a skill, mob, person or the minimise button (I play in windowed mode).

Problem is they are not normal crashes, instead of freezing for a bit and showing a bug report, the game closes instantly...it's there one sec and gone the next to no crash data (or am I wrong about that?).

Tried running in compatibility mode (Windows XP SP2) but that doesn't seem to be doing anything...anyone got any ideas why this happens?

    I've had the same problem for about a week now, I did a internet search and the most common option was a drive out of date or incompatible software-I checked both and still have this problem... I figure it has to be somethign they've done with tb or cash shop because i've had the same pc for over a yr with no problems

    I'm going to need some more information from you about your computer.

    Find out what the model number for your PC is. Check the documentation that came with your PC, or look on the back or bottom of your PC for the model Number.

    Please tell us the manufacturer's name of your system too! (Like HP, Dell, Toshiba, etc.)

    Next, go to Start, click on Run (or Search if using Vista/7), and type in dxdiag and press enter.

    Click on the Display tab, and then post here everything in the Device and Drivers boxes:

    Thanks!

    Lately, my laptop with Vista has been doing the same. Playing one second and not the next. It simply dumps to the desktop with no error message..... In fact no message at all. I also play in windowed mode because it always crashed if I accidently hit the windows key or got a system message.

    This started after the latest patch / update. At least the timing feels right.

    Update your video drivers from here: http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=vista64/common-vista64

    Send us a ticket to Tech Support with your dxdiag.txt attached if that doesn't help and you need us to review the rest of your system.
