    Hi Anubis,

    thanks for that information. You have a hardware/driver error on your system. Do other programs suffer similar crashes?

    In any case you should think of using the debugging program by Microsoft to see what causes the crash (Link.

    Did you upgrade some drivers/ service pack/ new hardware? Is your laptop becoming hot before it crashes?

    Hi, i didn't get the blue screen for awhile so i completly forgot about this post :) ... LOL...

    Anyways... Thanks again Xsamatan for your help.

    Since EB is the only game i play i can't really say if other programs suffer from this. I don't recall upgrading my software, also i don't think my computer gets hot before it crashes. I mean it's hot like hell everytime i play EB, but before the crash nothing special.

    Since you've probably figured it out, i'm a noob when it comes to programming, so the post you posted me really confused me, and i dunno what to install and how to use it... There are so many help and how to files.... :S... Is there any simple solution how i can check if the bugs are the problem?

    Like instal this, click this, click this and walla?

    Thanks again :)

    I think not...interpreting a bluescreen isn't that easy. I would advise you to NOT install these programs if you are not 100% sure of what you are doing.

    I think the problem is the heat. You can download SIW, a small system-analysis program that I use too. It runs without installation, but you will need administrator-rights.

    After started, open the "Sensors" link under Hardware. Run EB for half an hour, quit and check fast the temperatures showed of your "CPU". Under Video see the temperature of "Core temperature".

    Be careful with heat on laptops, I for myself ruined my machine with that...
