I keep having problems with my computer crashing after playing GW2 for about 10 minutes. It doesn’t happen with any other game. I’ll be in the middle of something and all of a sudden the screen goes blank with 2 different shades of vertical gray stripes. My specs are as follows…
Mobo: intel dx58so2
CPU: intel i7 950
GPU: Radeon HD 6970
None of my components are overclocked.
I’ll attach the error log.
Have you tried a repair yet?

You might want to make sure your CPU and GPU temperatures are within their limits. If you don’t already have software that monitors your CPU temperature and GPU temperature then I would recommend getting HWMonitor, which can be found here:

Your crash log says your last crash was last year.

Wasn’t sure how. Running a repair now…
Lol, I was thinking that too, but didn’t read the date on the log only the error and msgs. That would’ve been my first suggestion had I made note of the date… Fail! Lolololol ;p

hmm… I can’t seem to find a recent crash report. Then again, it isn’t the game crashing, it’s the PC
Definitely try Ilithis’ advice on monitoring your temps and such. Pst a screenshot of it after running the amd for 5mins (preferably after running for a reasonable time, but definitely before a crash).
Also, try to check your event viewer for any notices corresponding to the time of your crashes.
