Hey,
i’ve exactly the same problem. Does someone has another graphic card type than Nvidia Geforce GT- series? Maybe GW2 only has some trouble with GT- series or does someone has those crashes with ATI?

it is not your Gt card, i have a Gtx series. I can play 3 MMo’s with ultra max settings without experiencing laggs, crashes and so forth, whatsoever

but

only with Guild Wars 2.

Yet, even with low settings; > crashes, disconnections, laggs, bleeding screen, freezings..

Once more, it is not Ati nor Nividia cards or their drivers, it is Arena.net servers

Yeah, but that doesn’t make sense. Granted, it’s not like we can start it up with networking turned off or something to test. But I’ve never seen something like network errors cause hard reboots like only Guild Wars 2 does on my system. I mean, if it was a network issue, wouldn’t the client just throw up an error message and try to reconnect? Not bluescreen Windows.

I’ve followed the advice of someone in another thread here and turned off Automatically Restart under System Failure in advanced system options, so I can see exactly what the error is that’s causing my shutdowns. Like everyone else here, I’m using an nVidia Geforce GPU, Windows 7, plenty of temperature overhead, only GW2 does it, system acts as if the “shut down” shortcut key was suddenly pressed yet doesn’t shut down cleanly, etc.
