So this actually started somewhere in the TU22 series, but I forgot when. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />When I'm playing EQ2 -- and only when I'm playing EQ2 -- the game and my entire system will occasinoally come to an unannounced full freeze, where neither keyboard nor mouse will respond and I have to hit the actual power button.This comes without announcement -- whether I'm laggy or running cleanly makes no difference whatsoever -- and intermittently.  One day I could be fine doing a 5 hour dungeon crawl; the next, I crash 3 times in an hour just trying to do solo writs in the Bonemire.  Or running through North Freeport.  Or standing at a mailbox in the Commonlands.  Or in Sanctum.  Or wherever.It's not happening so often that playing has become impossible, but it must have happened about a dozen times now, over the last several weeks, and that's certainly enough to drive me batty.  Plus, it can't be good for the system.So I'm wondering -- has anyone else experienced this, or a similar problem?  And any suggestions?  I haven't changed my video (nVidia 6800 GT) or sound card (SB Audigy 4)  drivers since either late February or early March, and the problem started in April.<div></div>
