Since that last patch I've been having an issue with one of my computers freezing up ingame. Usually I can play for 5-10 minutes then it completely freezes up, no ctrl / alt / del or anything I have to unplug the computer to shut it off as the mouse cursor even freezes in place.
I went so far as to completely reinstall the XP operating system!! It still happens!!
I've swapped out video cards thinking it was that but it's still a problem. I've also swapped monitors and cords and two other computers on the same router play Eve with no problem so I have no idea what the issue is (but it doubt it's connection).
Has anyone else had an issue like this? Everything else on the computer seems to be working fine. The mouse and game just freezes up completely. HELP!

If EVE ran ok on this comp for quite awhile prior to the problems, first thing to check is heat related problems. While sitting in windows...its not doing much so not generating much heat, you jump into EVE and it peaks your cpu at 100%, things can get toasty.
so, open her up, clean out all the fans, if you didnt do so with the vid card swap.
After that, its hard to say. Hardware can go bad over time, but thats unlikely if you are not touching it and giving it static shocks and the like. you can try running memtest86 to see if you have bad memory or other such problems.

That is not what is happening. The pc completely locks up 5 mins after game startup and I have to restart the pc. Its not a 10 sec freeze.

I petitioned CCP on Saturday and have yet to hear anything from them. Fortunately I can play on my other pc but I have two Characters and it's tough to play two toons on one pc. It can slow down quite a bit and doing missions are tricky if it freezes temporarily from overload. I want them to fix this so I can run one toon per pc.
