    Does anyone else encounter this issue? Every time I have more than 1 instance of UO running, one of them will randomly freeze up on me. I can either wait for it to fix itself or I have to start a macro that uses a skill to unlock the frozen screen. Super hard and frustrating for me to play 2 characters with that happening.

    lol @One my computer is only 2 years old. I was thinking of putting a nice dent in the side of the case with a hammer. Because you know that will make my UO not freeze right? =P

    Yeah razor was made for a long time ago and has a few things meant for much older computers. Turn off Smart CPU reduction(useless and makes multi clienting bug out) and run anything UO-related in SP3 compat and admin mode. That should do it. Unless your computer is from like 1995 you shouldn't have issues with UO lol.

    In compatibility also toggle Disable Desktop Composition and Themes, that helped me.
