Are you getting a minidump, or a bluescreen, or is the machine restarting or what exactly is happening?

Get a sound card that isn't made by Creative ;)

The stuttering audio likely has nothing to do with the crash - it's a common occurrence when your machine crashes that the audio buffers loop. Do you have the latest drivers for your pile of video cards?

yes, even went to a recommended beta version.

went and downloaded newest OpenGL

went to Realtek and loaded their drivers

OpenGL won't help you much as the game runs on DirectX. Is there any way for you to disable two of those cards and see if it still happens? It may be a quirk of the triple-video card system.

SLI has a shed load of problems , I have the 2* SLI setup and seldom use it because of problems with the nvidia drivers in SLI mode. If its realtek HD audio, well I have that and some of their drivers can cause blue screens and freezes, I had that with eve online until I changed the audio driver. In saying that I have no problems thus far running sins but my audio loops twice on the initial loadscreen then everything plays fine, I have a relativly new system as well and frankly am finding that alot of the drivers are still in their infancy and buggy as hell and knowhere near as stable as the companies would have you believe. Theres so many possibilities driver wise but a high chance of what the mod says as well.

I hope you get it fixed, its took me months of wading through buggy drivers to get my system stable.

Good luck

sorry about the double post but it may be worth you trying the nvidia NGO drivers because thats what it took to get my system running flawlessly in sli(I uninstalled them and sli probs came back but havent got around to reinstalling them so I am just using the latest nvidia driver in non sli mode) , all the other unofficial drivers were just as bad but then again its kinda system dependant, differant things are working for differant people.

Im a bit dissapointed with nvidia driver support these days but once again , I think people that have the top notch versions of the cards are getting alot less problems so as said its kinda differant from system to system.

Anyway good luck !
