I'm about 95% certain it was caused my computer overheating and I've started turning off my mozilla and opera before playing games, as well as using less heating in my room. (I started crashing shortly after norway became totally cold, which led to me using more heating. ) the next time I crash I'll insert that new fan of mine, haven't bothered yet though.  | ||

My videocard was also overheated first time I got this pc, so I got a new one too. Maybe with me it's a heating problem as well ;x | ||

When I deleted some spyware problems, I don't have that rep-freeze problem anymore. And I just don't cancel joining b.net. | ||

However, this usually happens when I get MSN'ed during play, where BW minimizes and then disappears, with no error warning. I am also unable to restart BW until I restat my comp. Recently I have been just turning off MSN and any other programs when I am playing, and it has helped somewhat as BW crashes much less. Yeah happens to me 2 but not with msn. If its what's happening with me you can push Ctrl+ alt + delete in Windows xp and CHeck if starcraft.exe is still running even though the game actually just shut down. It usually is if you are unable to restart bw. Mark it and shut it down. You should be able to restart it now without restarting the computer. Atleast this happens to me and i noticed this "bug?" by a coincidence. | ||
