That's pretty interesting!
I'll have to test that, ... once the huge download is finished, have to reinstall everything after the "little incident" they induced with patch#1.


Did you get a chance to test it? I also have "Mute sound when not focused" off and haven't experienced and freezes myself but this is a bit worrying. I mean I expect the game to have issues at this stage (broken quests, graphic glitches etc.) but the game causing hardware issues...ouch!
