Game Locks up when entering combat

[Smendle]

Been playing fine for the last week or so, hit level 12 in Lavastorm and then I die, lose my level, go back collect my corpse, get ready for combat, enter combat, game locks.

Stubborn as I am I go back to lavastorm 3 more times and each time entering combat, I lock up and die.

Come back in today collect my corpse go back to town, sell, regroup, check the forum posts for anything similar and try some combat in Nek Forest.

Still locks every time I enter combat and the mob gets close to me or pet screen locks and have to restart to get back into the game.

Any help/suggestions?

Thanks.

What ui are you using?

What does the dbg file in the logs folder say after this happens?

Did you resize a chat window recently? If you've set combat text to go to a window of an invalid size it'll crash the client when it tries to write to it.

No but before this started happening I believe my UI windows did change. Like I had my spell gem window on the left side of my screen and it somehow switched to the right side.

Im thinking now I should reset my UI back to defaults and reset everything. I am going to try that if I can stay in game long enough.

Thanks for the assistance!

looks like resetting my UI back to defaults worked. Thanks again for all the replied. Somehow one of my windows must have gotten changed Ill pay more attention in the future.
