I can create a character but when I try to play, I watch the intro and then it shut off. what is the issue?

thanks

I'm having the same problem, hence why I came here. I googled any possible answers, but get mostly (if not only) Vista solutions, which are supposed to work for Win7 as well. I haven't had any luck, however. I finish creating a character and end up with a "Program has stopped running..." screen right after the scrolling the text.

I'm guessing the problem is my Intel chip, which (if so) would also explain your problem, papasmurf. (And I'm sorry for stealing your thread, but at least this way both of our problems will be right at the top of the list.)

Your running on a dual core processor, I have a dual core processor but only if you have the right @#$% on your CPU, the game will instead of letting you play, it'll play games with you. Try disabling one of the cores and see if that works.
