I run everything on low and it still pops up after 2-3 games.

I'd like to play this beta, I'd like to tell my friends how much fun it is.....but no. Guilds Wars 2 it is.

Try this:

To enable the 3GB switch on Windows Vista™ or Windows 7:

1. Right-click Command Prompt in the Accessories program group of the Start menu. Click Run as Administrator.
2. At the command prompt, enter "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072"
3. Restart the computer.
4. Play MWO

If got problems with ATI drivers:
To disable the 3GB switch:

1. Right-click on Command Prompt in the Accessories program group of the Start menu. Click Run as Administrator.
2. At the command prompt, enter "bcdedit /deletevalue IncreaseUserVa"
3. Restart the computer.

Helped for me.

P.S. Thanks to user KLOP for solution.

The 3GB switch makes other programs unstable..it is not recommended to be used lightly... The 32-bit Windows only allows 2GB of address space per application running...

It still doesn't fully resolve the issue though I have played about 9 games before it crashed so an improvement

The 3GB switch disables my video board somehow, the game does not recognize it and other applications have issues too, for example no subtitles in media player classic.
