You playing full screen or windowed? If you're trying full screen, try it windowed and see if it still occurs. If not, it could be that something is loading up in the background while you're playing that's screwing things up.

Have you tried reinstalling BSF and your display adapter drivers?

Does this mean you're using .88 or that you've DL'ed .88 just to try if it pops up there as well?

actually i have v 70 to v 88 and the newest witch im using
and i figured out the crash problem i turned on particles in options
just remembered this fix from when it happened to an older version
its been i wile seen i played this.

i always wondered why a seemingly simplistic looking game can be such a resource hog. or am i looking at this the wrong way.
