Game froze again just now, only started happening since patch. Is there anything you can do to salvage your game when this happens?

Well, best thing is to have backups.

        Alienware Aurora, Windows 7, 8gm ram, 2 TB hard drive, intel i7 processor, 2x nvidia 460 graphic cards. I'm going to test if it freezes when not logged in. As I think it might have something to do with being online and the new patch. As when I froze twice yesterday I didn't log on for the third attempt and had no freezing.
