Fatigue over ocean. It kills. I read that was a possibility, but never thought I'd need to "swim" out that far.
WoW crashed on me. Again. Reason* why at bottom. So, I find I cannot log onto my Mannoroth Orc Warlock. No problem. Check out the other servers, a few other races. Come back. As a ghost, I see my corpse out in the ocean... woah. Run far... then fatigue bar goes down. Zero.
My ghost died. I'd feel better if there were ghostbusters in the game, but... nope. That'd be kinda cool. Special "detect ethereal" spells to see where ghosts characters are--but nope. I died, and as a ghost.
Major newbie moment #1 complete. Minor newbie moments include asking how to vend items and other miscellaneous control issues.
*I think I know why I keep on freezing and crashing this time. It isn't my hardware or associated drivers, for once. Its my Win XP user profile. Its probably corrupt due to so many incomplete shutdowns turning into forced shutdowns, thus causing more freezing, and speeding the cycle of death.
After seeing explorer.exe helps the situation (as explorer itself was slowed down greatly), the csrss.exe program was the tip-off, leading to MS articles on what it does and the fact it leads to User profile corruption--something that's happened before and eventually happens.
EDIT: Apparantly profile corruption is only one problem. WoW freeze/crash is another.
Grak. Tried many settings. Drivers. WoW's fairly stable except for this last kind of crash.
At least I know it isn't a underpower issue or an overheating gfx card issue.
