my computer crashes

[Oliver Klosoff]

i will play pirates for about 20min and then it will all the sudden freeze, and the only thing to do from there is restart the computer.

ive tried re installing the game itself, directx, and also graphic drivers.

i have a 3.0GHz Dual core processor, 2Gb of ddr2 ram, a nvidia geforce9500GT, and a gigabyte mobo.

if anyone has any idea as to what the problem is or how to fix it that would be great

I would suggest you file a support ticket with us and include a dxdiag. Also include some log files from times you have crashed.

As an additional idea, I actually had a similar issue myself about 9 months ago and it turned out that one of my RAM sticks had gone bad. I yanked it out and it stopped that freezing and crashing all together. Put in a new RAM stick and never had that problem again. I don't know if that is your problem or it will help you.. but it happened to me.
