Delete your local.dat file located at

%APPDATA%\Guild Wars 2\
and run a “-repair” option

Ultimately, you need to re-install windows as 64-bit. You are not even using the full 4GB of ram you have. Depending on what else you are running, you are hitting a hard memory cap. Either in the processes of physical memory.

Deleted local.dat, and ran as -repair, but it still crashes after about 5-7 min in LA. I understand 64bit should run better than 32, but it still comes down to the fact that this ran fine originally. Would be nice to just know what has changed in-game that now makes it unplayable with this pretty decent graphics card.

Feirlista – thanks, but the graphics issue wasn’t a problem with last years Winter Day, nor did the issue just pop up with this year’s winters day. I tend to build my own comps, so am familiar with upgrading, but the mobo only supports 4gb. Obviously a different computer would improve performance, but just wondering why performance has tanked on current one, when it was operating just fine from the get-go.

Any idea why this is now an issue? As stated, this computer ran the game with graphics on high beautifully. Its just recently we keep having to lower settings to prevent crashing.

Also, what does deleting the local.dat file do?

Thanks!

Tried running everything in Low, and it ultimately crashed again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Been running GW2 on this same computer (Dell studio 540 w. added Radeon HD5750 graphics card, win 7 32bit, 4gb mem).

Game was running beautifully, but subsequently has been going downhill in the past 6-9 months.

Now when i run around Lions Arch, after having set my graphics to “Autodetect” it keeps crashing on me. I have the updated Catalyst 13.9 drivers running.

Wondering if anyone can figure out why I keep having to lower my graphics in order to keep this running, when it worked fine to begin with.

Is the Hippo no long available? I wasn’t sure when this started, or how they counted 7 days.
