Hei, ja.

 

Yes, we are a few of those, i tried the dual-core optimizer but now when the game crashes the whole OS goes with it.

 

The biggest annoyance is that i get no error messages.

I think everyone is having this problem. The game is just plagued with bugs.

if there was a pattern in the crashing it would make more sense and easier to fix, but it isnt.. and i dont have the issue they had in that thread... game just crashes randomly within 10 min of starting it.
