That's what I think, too. I made a dual boot between Windows XP and Windows 7, and, while MapleStory works perfectly on Windows XP (which, I think it's something noteworthy, is the 32-bit version) with my graphics card and has never given me any issue, it gives me all those issues on Windows 7 (64-bit), obviously with the same graphics card.

I can assure that my graphic drivers are 100% updated to the last version, as well as my OS in general. In fact, it appears that the last one gives MORE problems than the previous ones. Though, using previous ones apparently doesn't help either, because it still gives me those issues with the client when standing in crowded maps for a long time, fighting bosses with a boss HP bar, etc., even if I can play for longer.
I don't know if it's related to my 64-bit version of Windows or if it's any software I have. I can't really tell either, and I'm pretty sure nobody can. One thing is sure: on this computer, when MapleStory is running, my video card stops working and has to reboot itself. To me, it can't be anything else than that. If it was something else, like, for example, DirectX, I doubt the video card would stop working.
