I've recently reinstalled the game now that the new Blackrock is out, and my OS crashes periodically running it. Tried reinstalling, tried updating my drivers, updating java, etc. Not sure what seems to be the issue, and the log doesn't throw up any errors. Occurs occasionally when hitting pursue after combat, or when entering a destination on the sector map, or docking, or hitting various tabs. No real consistency. I've taken to compulsively saving but this is no way to go.

Looking at logs, seems last line is always music-related, not sure whether this is indicative of anything.

Running Windows 7 Professional, AMD processor/video card.

Mods being run:
Active Gates 1.0.0
Blackrock Drive Yards 0.9.5
Disassemble Reassemble 1.6.9
Lazylib 2.4e
Magiclib 0.26
Nexerelin 0.9.2
Ship/Weapon Pack 1.10.2
SkilledUp 1.1
ZZ GraphicsLib 1.4.0

If anyone could suggest solutions/explanations, would be terribly appreciated. Please let me know if there is any info I can put up to assist in diagnosing the issue.

If it's an OS crash, it might make sense to look at the system event log (Control Panel -> Administrator Tools -> Event Viewer) to see if that has any clues.

Turning off GraphicsLib via its config file may also be worth a shot, since that'll just cut down on the possibilities.

The OS crashing is bad business, though - could be, say, a sign of the graphics card going bad, or some other hardware problem. In your shoes, I'd back up any important data just in case.

Posting your actual specs (RAM amounts and allocation, what your actual CPU and GFX card is) along with the stop code/ error could help out alot. When you look at even view, look for stuff in the "critical" row. That is, if this is bluescreening on you
