Blue Screen of Death

Do you have a Creative sound card? These are currently causing problems for the game, we've made numerous fixes but some versions of the card can still have problems. This is the most likely cause of a blue screen, unless your drivers are out of date.

We do have plans for a fix which will hopefully make it into 0.9.11 - Until then, I'd suggest switching to the default sound drivers, or another alternate driver! Most Creative drivers seem to have this problem in one form or another, if something else plays sound while Path of Exile is playing sound.
