Something's wrong on my PC. Started it up and got the 'recovered from serious error' message.

After some research, it seems to be either my Video Card, my BIOS, Star Wars Galaxies, or all 3.

Updated Video Card driver, updated BIOS, and ran a full scan of SWG. No clear signs of improvement.

I hope this doesn't mean I'll have to replace the video card. Dammit.

Going to Obercon. Fuck it all.

scandisk, defrag and check the system log (if you're running 2K/XP) You may have a failing drive, or a bad cable.

Ardie's laptop has starting do similar, and near as we can figure, a single program had to have the equivilent of a Force Quit issued when the machine was last shut off.

Doing all, also ran Adaware and somehow a WildTangent thing got on, which is technically MalWare and could be causing it.
I'm also going to manually rather than automatically update VSE and run an intensive scan, now that I'm home.

Thanks for suggesting the system log, though. I'd half forgotten about that.
