Mass Effect 3 Multi-Player randomly crashing [Windows 8]

Mass Effect 3 continues to crash on Windows 8 since the last patch.  Windows 8 may be the issue and I get no more information than program has crashed close program box.  I don't have anymore information and it seems to be the only game besides Skyrim that does this on occassion. 

Must be Windows 8, is there any information or advice any of you can offer to resolve the issue?

    I have the same problem too.

    ME3 crashes here and there especially during multiplayer for about a week or two.

    Sometimes ME3 stops working even directly after starting the game from Origin and not even going to the option screen.

    I moved to Win8 since January 31st., 2013.

    ME3 starts cashing about 2 weeks after moving to Win8.

    Either some new patches from Microsoft or new patches from ME3 are the cause.

    Those crashes were new for me, I did not have them under Win7.

    Please respond to this problem.

    System:

    Q6600

    Shappire HD6850 1GB

    P5X38

    6GB DDR2 800 CL5 RAM

    Win 8 pro x64

    Crucial M4 128GB (OS and ME3 are here)

    Seagate 7200.14 3TB

    Set to:

    1680x1050

    all maxed

    Others (always active even since Win7 on my PC. ME was running ok with them on Win7 pro x64):

    PeerBlock

    Avast
