Hey all! Looks like I may be stuck in the land of tech support for a while. After those nights earlier this week where Guild Wars was giving me a steady stream of "white-box crashes" (i.e., the ones where it brings up a white box and asks you to submit the error log), I thought I'd wipe GW and give reinstalling it a try.
Now that I've tried that, it gives the white-box crash in the middle of downloading and rebuilding my .dat file. At least now, it seems to consistently be giving me the same error.
With any luck, I'll get a nice prompt response from ANet and they'll know exactly how to fix the problem. However, that may be wishful thinking. I suspect I'll be minus Guild Wars for a while (DD seems to think that this is the perfect opportunity for me to get Guild Wars working on WINE -- if you are not familiar, WINE a program used for running Windows applications in Linux -- but I'm not sure that would be any less of a pain than adventures with tech support...and it may throw the same error in Linux anyway).
In any event, keep your fingers crossed for me!
