Hello,
Until the recent updates, I was able to play Natural Selection 2 "okay." The game would sometimes exit to the desktop upon a new map loading, so this was no big deal, as I knew the new update (256) was coming. 256 comes out and I can play just fine, exit, let the game download 257, and the next day (today) I can't play Natural Selection 2 without the game force closing to the desktop constantly. I was curious what was causing the issue, so I ran Performance Monitor and Event Viewer.
This is the error from Event Viewer:
"Windows successfully diagnosed a low virtual memory condition. The following programs consumed the most virtual memory: NS2.exe (6636) consumed 1612271616 bytes, svchost.exe (1056) consumed 423682048 bytes, and svchost.exe (1032) consumed 321466368 bytes."

After the crash happens, sometimes Steam will also exit and I'll have to log back in.
Any suggestions?

Both those svchost.exe combined equal 740 MB of memory consumed.. wonder what they are
As per your request, here is the tech support zip from running the program techsupport.exe.
Thank you.
