Well then it isn't your sound.
What kind of video hard ware does your computer have?

I found out i get a little more playing time if I keep it in full screen mode so instead of crashing in 10 minutes it last about 20.

I have realtek too,
AC97 codec: ALC880
driver version: 5.10.0.5172
and I cannot play eve when the sound is turned on, I bluescreen >.<
But since you said that you already disabled the sound, I might think something else is crashing you.
Did you uncheck "Enable Audio" checkbox in eve settings, and put all volume sliders to 0 (zero)?

THANK YOU! I LOVE YOU! 
I just checked, and I have RealTek AC97 Audio v 5.10.0.5781.
My system crashes to manual reboot every couple of hours, with EVE sound disabled.
EDIT: If anyone uses this soundcard and does not suffer from EVE crashes, please post your version details.

If you fully disable sound then that is most likely not the issue. Would you all be using ATI cards by chance? My x800 (Driver Packaging Version 8.203-051211a-029124C-ATI) crashes to reboot randomly anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. It only does this when I try to run two acounts at the same time however. I have used other ATI computers that will crash with just one copy running. I believe this is a well known issue, and is hopefully being worked on.
Best advise I can give is check your video card drivers if you know your sound card is up to date.

I have had a similar issue with the game just dissapearing while I am doing something. I am convinced that the game is suffering from a resource issue. It seems that at some point the game tries to over use resources on my PC and that causes the process to exit. Possibly due to some coding error on the RMR patch, but i've seen it on 2 completely different systems (laptop & desktop). Maybe i'm wrong, but maybe something was changed to help reduce lag but in effect it's introduced a crash bug. Might even explain why some people can clear their caches and things work better :)
Just my 2 pennies worth.

I have a GForce 6600 GT
As i mentioned, this problem occured with RMR.
Never had the problem before.
I have just updated my Graphics driver last night....
So now i'm testing to see if that helps.

One more thing!!!
When it crashes - My Color settings and shortcuts in market (Can't remember what it's called) dissaper.
Looks like total reset of EVE, except my bookmarks.
Any one tried that to?

OK first of all, if your computer reboots randomly, chances are it's a critical stop error and your computer has been set to reboot automatically whenever there's one of these errors. Normally you'd get a blue screen filled with loads of unhelpful advice and some rather important details about what exactly happened and where. So first, you should disable automatic rebooting whenver your PC has a critical error. Do this by performing the following:
1.) Right-click on My Computer (Or choose "System" from Control Panel) and select Properties.
2.) A box appears with some tabs along the top. Click the Advanced tab.
3.) Click the Settings button in the Startup & Recovery area.
4.) Anotherb box appears. In the System Failure section, UN-check the Automatically Restart option.
5.) Click the OK button. When that box disappears, click the OK button on the System Properties box.
At this point, you can now run EVE. Play the game until the computer dies. Hopefully Windows will replace the frustrating auto-reboot feature with the famed Blue Screen of Death. Write down the stop error code and any other information you see on that screen. Post all that information here. Be complete with this info, especially the stop error codes. They look something like this. Yours may look slightly different. Write down everything but the "advice" and post it all here.

gabrial1, as far as your Acer Aspire 3000 goes, according to this page you have a rather crappy video chip in your laptop. My only suggestion for you aside from either buying a laptop with a REAL video controller or a desktop is to follow Rantor's fix for people with underpowered graphics accelerators. Found here.

I'm having what I think is this same problem, but I'd like to see if you have this symptom as well. When I crash, the screen turns blue. It's not a proper BSOD, as there's no text; the screen is just that color. Also, the sound stutters. I'm sure most of you are familiar with it: the last few miliseconds of sound play repeatedly.
Anyway, I thought it was an issue on my end, possibly related to my hard disk (it's a bit worn down, and given that EVE requires a large amount of hard disk activity it seemed like a no-brainer). |

every one experiencing this problem, remove your sound card. if its still a problem its not the card. infact disconnect and reconnect everything thats not critical, as your first test.
2nd test (dont tell me why, but this one works where the others fail, most of the time). remove every part from your computer, including mobo. clean each part carefully as you reassemble it, being careful not to blow dust into the ram tracks, and make sure you remove cpu from mobo and heat sink. give cpu new blob of thermal paste and reattach it to the mobo carefully then heat sink. make sure all the plugs are in and power up.
the second step takes me about 10 - 15 minutes, and it has saved me from allot of greif. it has also taught me alot about computer maintence, this is the best thing i have learnt so far. dust is bad for the computer, clean components of dust regulary. dust becomes conductive in humid weather.
once this has all been done, if it still stuffs up chances are its not hardware related.
have a nice day

I'm sorry, but if Eve is the one and only software that crashes and causes the comp to hardlock, it's not an issue that's hardware related and certainly not dust related.

My computer was crashing fairly randomly after the RMR update. I have an AMD 64 3200 with ATI Radeon 9600 and it originally had a Soundblaster 128, but is now using onboard Realtek ac97. It would frequently crash my computer so that the monitor lost its input and the keyboard caps lock would stay on (indicates a BIOS lockup, I think). It wasn't heat, as it frequently crashed minutes after turning the computer on for the first time of the day and while I was still docked. I don't think it was memory, as I played SWG for a year and that's far more intensive and resource hungry than EVE, and also EVE worked perfectly fine until the RMR update. It wasn't the PSU, as that broke while I was having the problem and so I replaced it with a much more powerful unit.. it didn't fix the problem.
I tried all sorts of things: disabled hardware sound acceleration in directx, latest graphic card drivers, retro graphic card drivers, old and new versions of .net, removing the soundcard (a creative soundblaster 128), using the old faces.stuff file.. nothing worked!
In the end, I scrubbed the lot and completely re-installed windows 2000. Now it works fine and hasn't crashed since! I know it doesn't get down to the source of the problem.. I can only asume that there was a software conflict in there somewhere.
why couldn't CCP include a log server that auto-saves instead of one that loses all its data if you crash to a restart? I don't think I've ever just crashed to desktop!

odd I had the same set-up (minus the soundcard) and it hasn't crashed at all.

How about people try to see if their problem has already been addressed prior to jumping onto the "CCP FIX NOW!!!!!!" bandwagon? :)

I am having the exact same problem lately since RMR.
I have an Athalon 64 bit, Radeon/ATI video card and a brand new sounds card too (since december...play eve for 1-2 hours and crash but in full screen sometimes i get to play longer. I have done a RAM test, checked the temperature in the computer and cleaned the inside and still nothing......Not playing eve is starting to get really frustrating.

For those having a problem this thread may help. The issue could be that we all use the ATI drivers which use micrsoft .NET. If you only have 1.1 installed that is where your memory leak might be coming from. I can't try it yet since i am at school but you can and let us know. You need to go to the microsoft update page and instal .NET framework 2.0 and that should help
