I have not had any problem untill I updated to 0.8.6a from 0.8.1.
I have used the prefix --disable-screensaver

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --disable-screensaver

Sometimes I get a blue screen with an error about memory yapping.

Seconds ago the computer just restarted without any waring.

Running W2k.

Im going to remove the --disable-screensaver and test it out and see if it's that.

Also make sure you have reset your preferences. You can try disabling some hardware acceleration or use the Direct3D video mode (see Quick Settings in Programs shortcut). I don't think --disable-screensaver was fixed in OpenGL mode yet..
