Crashing Everytime i look at a list of people. Social aspect of the game gone...

I seem to be the only one having this problem...

everytime i look at a list of people i crash, it doesn't matter if its the fleet roster, friends list or the list of people at the end of a PvP match.

this bug has really dampened by social abilities in the game and has meant i can't play PvP because i crash at the end of every map.

i know its a system bug, not a server/game problem.
and i suspect its a memory leak that my system just can't handle

so here's my system specs so the dev team can hopefully track down the problem:
(i'm running on a laptop btw. on minimum settings, half resolution and a screen size of 1280x720)

CPU: Dual Core Intel Pentium @ 1733Mhz
RAM: 2Gb DDR2
GRAM: Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family (358 MB approximate memory)

    You're running way under the minimum spec for this game.

    Have you tried a full reinstall of the game to see if that helps? It's possible you might have a corrupt game file somewhere.
    Do you have the latest drivers for your machine?

    I havent actually experienced a crash in STO, but universally there should be a popup notification window on your desktop after the crash with that information in it. Try reproducing the error again and capture that information.

    Or are you stating that upon crash you are not prompted with any crash data and it simply boots you to the desktop?

    no no i fill out a little error report everytime and then wait 30 mins while it sends the dump file to cryptic.
    i guess i'll try it again see what happens

    It looks like it is crashing in the graphics driver. Have you tried updating to the latest driver?

    Well hello sir! I'm actually having this same problem...every time I bring up our fleet roster the game crashes on me. Though sometimes it will give me a problem number and other times it just tells me unknown..so if you happen to come across an answer to this let me know!

    Here's a few I submitted: 6802926 , 10874644 , 10874989 , 6878790 , 10473278 , et al.

    The whole social dialog box is unuseable for me. Please fix, not being able to talk to friends/fleetmates hurts badly.

    EDIT: Wow, I just necrobumped a thread without realizing it. But I'm still having this problem; these tickets are all from Mar 25, 2010
