BSOD Game is unplayable
When you don’t have enough memory to work with, Windows uses your hard drive as virtual memory. Your BSOD basically means that a problem occurred when trying to read from this memory.
Open “Computer” and select the drive where your page file is located. If you have no idea, you’ll need to do this for every drive (alternatively, look for the system hidden file pagefile.sys located in one of the drive’s root directory). Right click the drive and select properties. Under the Tools tab, click Check now under Error-checking. Check both boxes and begin the scan. There is likely a problem with your hard drive.
You can change your page file location under Control Panel > System > Advanced (tab)> Performance Settings > Advanced (tab) > Virtual memory

Kernel_data_inpage_error 0×000007A every 5~10 mins, i cant play this game anymore wich is weird since i played all day long when i bought it a few months ago; the error started randomly and i got sick and uninstalled, decided to give it a try this week and no luck.
This game is the ONLY one who crashes my computer, havent had a crash in months after i stopped playing it, been playing wow, lol, phantasy star 2, diablo 3, skyrim, and many others online and offline games with no problem at all its only gw2 which crashes my pc.Playing on laptop, quad core processor amd phenom 2, 4gb ram, already checked hdd no problems; and like i said any other game runs for hours no problem.
Kinda dissapointed i always wanted to play this game and results it screws my pc, any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
You do not tell us what windows version is installed. If you are running 32bit windows that could be most of the issue right there, where as with 64bit all of your 4GB of ram will be available and it could be other issues.
Its true that the HDD can cause these issues, but so can bad ram in general. Also, Phenom II’s in laptops are notorious for running hot, have you verified that the CPU just isn’t getting too hot and your laptop throwing errors due to that?
If your laptop is an HP, you could have the BGA north bridge issue going on (or starting to happen), which requires a new motherboard 30% of the time.
