I am having the same problem, nothing wrong with my hardware as I can play every other game in the world without issue. My problem started out as a constant driver crash (HD4870) that would result in a frozen black screen. I could alt+ctrl+delete my way out but soon it turned in to bsod on every crash.

I followed someones advice in another thread and turned character animation to low and unchecked high res character models and that seems to have helped but I still experience the issue in roughly 50% of my sessions in GW2. I have tried the last 8 set of official drivers, underclocked, overclocked, and standard clocked card, and I have increased the fan speed to max (and monitored the temp) just to ensure no over heating issue. Don’t have my error codes to post up as I am at work but the situation sounds identical. Everything can be fine for hours and then suddenly while chopping a tree or just standing still I freeze and get the bsod.

I should also point out mem-test and cpu stress testing all pass with no errors when ran overnight.

Having the same issue with a Radeon HD4870. Started out as driver crashes, black screen back to desktop (kill task), now its progressed to only BSOD’s, can happen in 10 seconds or 40 minutes, but it never fails to eventually ruin my night. It has pretty much broken my ability to level and made the game a waste of $60. Pretty bummed but nothing seems to resolve the issue.

Also Win7 64.
