I have the same problem. After about 3 or 4 trips through a jump gate I get the blue screen. It used to only do it in single player but now it's started in multiplayer. Anybody know how to fix this?

I've noticed it only seems to affect jumps leaving the New York system, at least in my case.

However I also disabled the tool tips and scrolling help options before I made a clean jump back into New York.

See if playing with some of the options disabled has any affect, as I don’t think it's a graphic problem. It seems to crash just after the autosave saves your position in the new system.

There is an easy workaround: disable 3d Sound in the Game Options. The crash should be gone (mine resurfaced many missions later though).
