Haha! Yes, my batteries are fully charged. I actually run with the AC connected whenever playing games.

But here is some more info regarding the crash:

- The GPU is not overheated. It actually never went past 50 degrees celsius. The nVIdia GO 7400 has a threshold level at 105 degrees celsius so I think it's safe to say that the temperature is not the evil creature acting here.

- When the HS4 process hangs the music still plays. (not that I know if it's a clue or not)

- When the HS4 process hangs it has consumed 1 gb memory and i have a 1.5 gb swapfile. After I terminate the SH4 process the swapfile drops to 300 kb.

- The screen resolution is stuck to 800x600 with a color depth of 4. And I can't access nVidias utilities to contact the GPU.

- After turning of all graphics acceleration and the turning it back on the system behavs as normal and I can start the game again.

- When starting the game and loading my last saved location it consumes 1 gb memory again and the swapfile is 1.5 gb.
