@ Tellos Athenaios
Hey, thanks for the crash message page, will help in the future.

@ bovi
The computer froze BEFORE I installed the latest driver and continued to do so AFTER I did so in reaction to the crashes. Therefore the new driver cannot be the reason.
Furthermore, as I wrote, for a very long time I did not have that problem, while I still used the older driver. Therefore also downgrading will not help, for the non-downgraded driver did well for the longest time.

@ everyone, whom it may concern
I guess I found the reason: seemingly it was the hardware, just as bovi assumed in the beginning.

After the error message, I finally took my PC to a gas station and had the dust blown away by a high pressure nozzle. Man, that was a hell lot of dust!
In addition I still had to remove dust from the graphic cards fan with the vacuum cleaner.

Since than, the problem did not reappear. The game crashed only once since that, but in a "usual manner" - to the desktop - not that total freezing of the system.

I guess after three days of testing, since the cleaning, this proves it was the graphic card overheating, due to the extraordinary resource usage of EB, combined with the inability to cool the card as it should be.
Heureka!



Btw. have you turned my problem into a separate thread? If yes, why? I would still assume it is of the same kind as the original poster ones, and might help more people than just me.
