Display driver has stopped responding with metaverse.

Hello,
I can play the game all day long without a problem, with the exception of the following...

I log in to metaverse then click the play button. On the next screen or at most the screen after that one, I am informed that my display driver has stopped responding and I am given the option to report it and close the game or just close the game. This only happens if I login to the metaverse part of the game first. If I play the twilight game without logging into metaverse I can play for as long as I want (last night it was running for over 8 hours) so....

Please tell me what is causing this and if it's something I have to wait on a patch to fix or if there is something I can do on my end to fix the problem.

AMD 64X2 4800+
Nvidia 8800GTS x2 (sli)
2GB RAM
Windows Vista 32bit

Thank you
