Bad news, and an update on my quirky situation. Yesterday I was playing on mumble just fine for 2 hours and a bit… and then when I went back to town and pressed f my system crashed again

Hey guys, I’ve been following this thread because I have the same issue as described by the above posters.. computer freezes/crashes exclusively when playing GW2, no BSOD, no signs of overheating or power shorting. My system should theoretically be able to handle GW2 just fine, and I run stock everything so there should be no issues that would be had with OC’ing. I’m running i7-950, 24g ripjaw ram, gtx 560 ti, 125g ssd on windows 8 64 bit.

The thing is, I think I may have found the source of my own problem. I tried moving my game over to another directory to no avail, but what I did notice was that I could play just fine for any length of time while I was not on skype. I bought this game with my brother so usually when we both play we skype with each other, and I realized I could play just fine on my own.. but once I get on a call in skype my computer would crash with any length of play between 30 seconds and 15 minutes.

Is anyone who is experiencing these problems coincidentally also using Skype?
