Duel+Elim Crash my computer

[Gannon8]

I was in elim when it was restored the other day. When the round was over, instead of getting chat messages, I heard the windows error prompt sound effect noise. In the space where the error message and start menubar is, I can see my mouse, but I can't click on anything and Continuum is still running full-screen so I can't really see anything. The only way out is by holding down the power button for 5 seconds. Same thing happened to me when I just entered the Duel arena to duel emit.

 

Anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

Elim should crash Continuum, not your computer

It crashes continuum, but I can't do anything with my computer except do a hard reboot.

I'm not that dumb.

I have a solution for you, don't go into duel or elim, problem solved.

 

Now if you must play in those arenas, don't use full screen, go to window mode.. (Resolution -> Windowed)

what the f?

 

Why does it crash?

Did you try bringing up the task manager and ending the task? Continuum tends to freeze for me in HS pub on occasion, and I have to end the task to get out.

Crashes for me too, but I know why. If you don't buy a ship and try to enter into it, it throws a 'divide by zero' error.

I tried pressing Ctrl-alt-del but it only showed up behind continuum, so I could not see it. I tried guessing where the buttons were, but I couldn't click on any of them.

The same happens to me, Gannon8, but I have my task manager set to always be on top. That way I can always get to it.

[Gannon8]

Mine is set the same way with no difference.
