Just wondering how you use the microphone chat option (e.g. \ key) without your computer crashing?

Well if you are running a Winmodem these things have moved some of the processing over to your CPU for overhead, so you might consider just chatting with the other player in text rather than using a mic modem. The sound runs through your modem card and it can bugger things up, send in a technical support request to Microsoft at http://www.microsoft.com/
