Hi Tukete - unfortunately there isn't a solution for the -w crashing thing. If you can cope with only doing full-screen, then I suggest that's what you do.

Your Graphic Rules and Video Cards are set up correctly.

Apart from that - check that you are using the program as an admin, that you have the compatibility set to Windows 7, and that you have smooth edges set to maximum.

OK. I'm going to close this one as solved then. If I ever find a cure for the windowed crashing, I will let you know.
