*Ponders*

I think a couple weeks ago I suggested putting all your settings to lowest and testing it out, then working your way up incase it doesn't crash after 10 minutes.

There is something that card just doesn't like texture wise,
Quote:
Some of the problems include missing terrain.
Thus like that the post on their website.

Good news is that my boss is gone for the next couple of days, and the work he gave me shouldn't take too long if I rush it. Gives me a couple of days to come up with a solution for you.

Is there a friend or someone that could drop by and let you test their card? (Perferably one not listed on their website for terrian errors if possible.)

Try the lowest settings and see what happens. It might lower the needed terrian thats loaded while playing making the game a little more stable. There are some NView (or whatever that program is that comes with Nvidia to play around with card settings) that you can try out as well, like turning off Anti-A and V-Sync.



*EndEdit*
Personally I hate formatting. More so if I have a lot of stuff on my CPU. If it solves the problem or not, I can't give you a good answer. Its up to you if you want to wait for a reply from AN or format. Someone else might have some advice that could help you out as well later tonight when they get home from work.

Its near the end of the day so my brain is shutting down. LoL.

Well, I haven't actually heard of a solution by them on the forums yet... If someone who has gotten a reply who helped them posted it on the forums for us to use, that would be excellent.

Fidus, don't reformat it won't help. I have the exact same problem as you. MSI Nvidia 6600GT, my game randomly quits on me and locks up. I realzie the video card ma be overheating and I'm testing that out. I've emailed support about 20 times now trying to solve this problem, and I've still not gotten a solution to the problem. Try updating your motherboard drivers, that stopped mine from crashing for about 24 hours. PLEASE let me know if any solution is found, I've been having this problem since December...

Hi there,

Sorry for re-opening this thread. (could also have made a new one I think)
Did a Search one the issue.

I got the same problem as Fidus has/had. The array.h error.
Got a hug fan blowing into the pc cooling everything down. CPU, Graphics Cart, HD's, etc.
Also tried a fresh install like 4 times. Formatted everything.
Ran spybots, antivirus things, memory checks, etc.

But nothing helped me discovering this problem.

Also got help from GW support centre, thought they recommended the most obvious things, listed above. Nothing that really helped me so far. :[

So, any (bright) idea's what it could be are most welcome :]

Recent history:


Strangest thing is:
Last Friday I was able to play like all day (kept running GW all day long). Fans blowing in the pc.
But before that time, and after that time, it keeps crashing again. I didn't changed anything.

??? - Thursday evening:
Switched off pc after numberous of tried switching memory sticks, running spy/ad ware, virus.
Started GW. Crashed in less then 10 minutes.

Friday morning:
Turning on Fan + pc. Started GW. Let it run for quite some time assuming it would crash soon anyway. After a hour or so I actually started playing. Took breaks, did some thing while letting GW run.
At night I switched off the pc.

Saturday morning:
Turning on fan + pc. Started GW. Halfway a mission it crashed...

Update:

1) Installed some Omega drivers for Radeon 9200 yesterday. Rebooted. GW worked perfectly that evening.
2) Shutted down pc because of sleepy-time
3) Next morning turned on the pc
4) Ran guildwars & went to shower
6) Came back, seeing a blue screen of death. Kmixer error.
7) Fixxed the error by re-installing Media player.
8) Ran gw again
9) didnt took too long for getting the next error. (memory error)
10) rebooted, started gw again. Array.h crash
11) REbooted again started gw again. Array.h crash

12) Shutted down pc.
13) Putting a much much older GeForce 2 cart in the pc.
14) Running Gw (very very slow) for about a hour without problems.

So I think it has something to do with the Radeon drivers, or some memory writing problem with Radeon series. :s
All I need is a fix now. :-/
