Game Crashes are Frequent and Unpredictable

I bought this game today and it plays fine, but it crashes all of the time.

I understand that this game is pretty bugged but do you know a fix to this?

Vista SP2

You really should check overheating issues. I experienced the same irregular crashes in the beginning. I noticed my graphics card was really hot. So, I lowered the speed of my graphics card and gave my computer some extra fresh air. After that I have been playing over 20 hours without crash.

That's a long time!

Thanks. I had been playing a while myself when this happened.

My card runs hot anyway and in my event viewer it said a driver had failed so I think you are right.
