Yup same here, Windows 7 is far more stable than XP or Vista. Only had 2 crashes that weren't recoverable in some way without a restart. Check his L4D2 settings I used to have issus with multi-core rendering on XP, while it may not be that if he looks at each part he may find the actual cause.

...Ok Fullerton, I suppose you are kinda cool.

"He could just go back to Vista? :rofl:"

He could if he wasn't so stubborn...You know as much as I do how stubborn M7U can be xD

Yeah, multi-core rendering was a problem for me as well when I first played L4D2 but the thing is, he can't even get past the opening movie so he can't really do anything with it.

I believe there may be a launch option to turn off multicore rendering or a high performanbce autoexec.
