Forum:Crawmerax freezes my game

Hello Borderlanders!

I'm trying to learn how to solo crawmerax with my Soldier. However, nearly everytime I try, I eventually get hit with one of those purple balls, and each tie that happens, theres about 50% chance that my entire PC freezes up, and my screen becomes monochrome. the sound is still on, but nothing short of a manual reboot can get me out of it. this happens both online and in single player. Ive tried to fiddle with the graphics settings and such, but my PC is quite powerful, and can run the game perfectly in all other instances. please help me.

Ingjald out.
