    Afterburner Crashes game at launch, any ideas?

    Hey guys, sorry if this was answered somewhere.
    Does anyone have a fix for MSI Afterburner, every time i try to launch a game while Afterburner is running the game crashes at launch.

    if i close MSI Afterburner then launch game let it load, then alt+tab and launch Afterburner then i get both working fine, with in game overlay working.

    Is there a way to fix this issue so i dont have to close MSI down and relaunch it every time i play a game

    Try restarting the computer and try again.
    I've seen AB instantly crash Crysis, with flickering triangles (even at stock), just on the movies/bink screens, before I even get to the main menu. Probably caused by conflicts with the drivers or other programs (even though I closed the other programs before). When I restarted computer, everything worked perfectly again.

    no its not that, i've restarted a few times since install.
    this happened with my GTX460 aswell, and now with my 7970.
    Never got MSI afterburner to launch with games before, i've always had to launch it after games.

    Anyone have any ideas.
