If its like windows xp killing the automatic updates service should do the trick.

Before you can do anything else worthwhile you need to make sure is not ram so either take it to a friend's house and try them on his pc or buy a new pair of sticks and return them

Even after trying the sticks individually there's nothing else pointing to any other kind of problem in your system. The last pair of Gskill sticks that I bought one was busted. Changed them and the new ones also had one busted so getting a double is not that strange. Ended up putting the one that was working and a single Kingston and now its working fine.

Once you are 100% that the ram is working fine you can pretty much assume that either your RAM doesn't like your motherboard (not that rare either) or that your motherboard is the problem.

I've been hearing some word on people having crashes. I hope this can be fixed so you can practice.

Select fighting!

I highly doubt that thousands of people's hardware is the problem all of a sudden after this patch, I believe Blizzard have broken something and this is all a fault on their end they must fix.


I know.. but i have had the crash even before the patch ^^ but not this much

Hmm ok, interesting. I also had this crash, but only once in about (200 games worth of playing) prior to the patch. Hope Blizzard can find a solution.

Are there any other games or other programs which put a similar load on your computer that also cause it to crash? Was there anything at all which changed when the laptop started crashing? How recently before that had you played successfully on it? And has there been any improvement in your desktop with the changes you've tried?

just stop overclocking and put it back on normal settings, remove every unneeded peripherals, use high timing on ram (start with 1 stick) and reinstall windows with this configuration
test just using SC

if it works, try to put things one by one continuing testing

I think us fixing your memory timings have solved the problems you were having post-patch.

Given that the new patch has added instability and after the testing we have done today and the problems others have been having, I'd say the problem is now on Blizzard's end.

even the OC settings? u don't talk at all about it, and that's what probably affect you

without thinking about giving overvoltage may broke the hardware, that's could be the answer of "no crash" at beginning

its happening on his laptop and desktop only on sc2 and other people are saying its happening to them so must be software not hardware
there is no such thing as hard or easy there is only practice, difficulty is a perception

Yep, as annoying as it is all we can really do is wait until Blizzard get the problem sorted.

"I overcloaked recently after I built with New motherboard because when i was using my old motherboard (intel atax miniboard) It was still crashing and this board is locked on overcloacking. It is not about overcloack."

you could try NVIDIA beta drivers:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvista-64bit-267.24-beta-driver.html

Also delete all SC2 settings (especially video) and try out different settings.
I believe its a blizzard video engine/nvidia driver co-production...

also getting this problem.
I've used memtest as well and also tried isolating my RAM but no luck..
memtest showed up with no problems so i'm pretty sure this is something on Blizzard's end.
It's so frustrating how they seem to just ignore this problem..
