Stupid crashing!!!

Hi guys

I used to play MTG back in the day and stumbled across this in piratebay, man was I excited! I installed this, then "the only patch to use" and things started okay. I then went to start a game and got an "assertion error" in the character build section. Not to worry I told myself, lets get to playing the game! So next I started to play only to find over and over again that I can play for between 2 and 5 min before things just freeze up, generally mid battle when a card effect happens (different ones each time). I am running Win 7 Ultimate, have plenty of ram/space etc.

Can someone please help as I would dearly love to give this a good crack?

Thanks

Where do you have the game installed?

Also, did you ever successfully create and give a name to a new character? This is mandatory.

I havent done the new character thing due to the assertion error, maybe this is my problem?

Any ideas on this?

Ah! I've seen this error massage before, on my 32-bit XP test setup. Unfortunately, I can't remember the specific conditions which created it.

Let me look into it. I'll do a fresh install and see if I can re-create the problem.

Sorry guys. I've tried to recreate the problem on my XP system, but with no luck. :(
