Its strange - on the overclockers forums there's someone playing with Vista - 10 hours in and no crashes or serious bugs...

He might be running Vista 64bit, which gives lot more room to an
application behaving badly with memory management.


I do have 32-bit. Apparently the new patch will make changes to memory management...


Or it could just be your video card. I read somewhere that the
enhanced lighting model (DX10 specific) pushes video card very hard
and the temperature can go up quite a few notches. If you have
capapbility to ramp up the GPU fan, try that and see if your setup
gets more stable.


Just spent a while taking out my 8800GTS and installing a 4870. Tested it out with Crysis (very nice) and I'll try Stalker shortly.
