One (request for tech advice) was enough, after finding the Tech Discussions forum, here's the answer:

Is anyone else getting random crashes? it just started today for me. I was playing the game last night for a good 6 hours without any problems but today i can only play for about 5-20 mins before it crashes. I know that there is a memory leak in the game but i find it hard to believe that is the problem because I had no problems last night and I changed nothing on my computer from last night. If anyone has any ideas the may help that would be most helpful.
my spec
AMD dual core 6000+ 3Ghz
4gb of ram
Geforce gtx 285
windows xp sp 3
Chances are fairly good that the author has (had ~~ I'm reviewing this a year and some later, probably a year and a half) been allowing Microsoft free reign to change whatever, whenever, through automatic updates, instead of taking full control of the system, and Microsoft changed something that shouldn't have been changed.
A few comments of similar nature, possibly because of the same misplaced trust in Microsoft, follow, and then a random "Me, too" of no usefulness to anyone, from the member Grunkzzz.
Same thing immediately following, from Chuckaltair. Followed by LordDrow420.
A next member reported very similar circumstances to the OP, about which I've made my best WAG already.
KorrickAsh made another of the useless "Me, too" additions.
However, when Devanshyr added a comment, it was about an entirely different problem instead of what the thread is about.
wizardbain claimed to be using a nonexistent CPU he referred to as a "Pentium Quad", so we have no idea whether his problem was hardware or the game.
eSaracen was off-topic with a different problem. We don't know from the incomplete data whether Pezninja06 had the same problem or not. amrose2 added another of the "Me,too" variety of comment. fozfoster did the same thing.
Why all the Me, too! people even bother writing is beyond me. They offer no help, they have no question that anyone can answer, since they offer nothing as diagnostic data.
