I take it this is not exclusive to GWX3?

Thanks for the tip jim.

Before you started the game or if it comes to it During your game your computer may have downloaded some up dates or done a virus scan might of even preformed a system restore point update.
You are playing on a computer that also operates programs in the back ground.
Or have you turned off every single function that allows your machine to run smooth.
The Ram cannot always clear out information that was needed by some other program so you loose some of the ram space this also effects the virtual memory.
Sometime the only way to clear it is by restarting.
The next time your game freezes or CTD it might just be the machine up-dating its self that cause this …
The most annoying one is when it returns to the desk top and there is a message saying windows needs to restart to install new programs.
