I was taking some screenshots while running Twilight Arbor last night and after taking two screenshots in quick succession, my game froze up. The sound was normal, and I could still press 1-0 and cast spells, but the video was frozen. I can even hear myself running and jumping as well.

It seems that this only started happening yesterday, or at least within the last few days, because on January 31st I took a whole bunch of screenshots in a row without any issues. Sometimes it’s after a second screenshot, and sometimes after a third, but I never seem to get past taking a third screenshot before it freezes on me. I have to Alt+F4 out of the game to fix it.

Ah, thank you! I didn’t see that link.

I am indeed using the 13.2 beta drivers. Looks like it’s time to do a rollback, eh?
