I think I've found the problem of all these crashes I had when I was hosting the pitboss. The fan of my videocard is scorched off! It was probably a wire that burned off first, but when I looked yesterday night the fan itself, and what it was connected to, was all black, and all I could do was to tear it off. Luckily I still had a loose fan somewhere; one that you can place in stead of a PCI-card, which blows against the card next to it. It makes an awful lot of noise, but let's hope it'll cool the videocard sufficiently.

Your server or your normal system?

I have no server, just a router. So it's my own computer.

Oh well, shit happens. What sucks more is the fact that my current motherboard doesn't have a PCI-express slot, which makes a potential replacement AGP-videocard basically a waste of money.

Same thing happened to me 2 years back. I ended up having to get a crappier card with the plan to replace the computer in a year or so which I did.

Well,

I copied all files to another computer, but no succes. As expected, several DLLs are missing.
