Recently, just a few days ago, I started experiencing fatal crashes when starting the game.
Shortly after logon, sometimes before the harbour is loaded and sometimes a few seconds after, the screen goes blank, sound locks up and computer cease respond, requiring a hard-reset or power-down.
It doesn't happen every time, but about 2/3. Once the game loads, it remain stable and I can play for hours. I can even alt-tab and do other stuff.
I first suspected my old graphics-card was begining to give up, but I have no issues in other games I play, such as Stellaris, Diablo III, Path of Exile and Never Winter.
I also downloaded Heaven Benchmark and let it run on extreme for a while in order to see if that could trigger some error, but it was also fully stable.
I tried a repair and also removed the preferences.xml-file yesterday, but that didn't help.

Anyone got any ideas?
