    Devlyn,

    A lot of us around here play TFC, but for us to help, we'll need more info/details, such as operating system, hardware, etc.

                  Has this started happening since the 1.1.0.7 patch, and are you running in OpenGl mode?
                  My system has been crashing TFC ever since the 1107 patch. Then I swapped to running in D3D mode and its been fine ever since.

                  I think the 1107 patch and Matrox dont like each other.

                    i noticed as it froze this time
                    framerate dropped from 13 to 7

                    and what ever else the netgraph measures jumped to

                    300+ in
                    24+ out
                    does this make any sence to anyone?
