I haven't found my specific problem yet....after Crucible I cannot run a dual client. I used to open to instances of EVE for carrier cynos on my other account or for moving my stuff around.

If I open up two instances of EVE when alt tabbing to one or the other about 90% of the time the screen will stay black and then one of the instances will crash.

This was never a problem pre-crucible. Any ideas on how to fix?

I have this same problem too. For me it doesn't crash every alt-tab, but still alot. It's not just alt-tabbing between clients either. It has done it to me for just switching to a web browser. Glad they at least made drones recall upon crash or this would be much worse.

Which window mode using? Full, fixed, windowed. I found that Full didn't work so well with 2 clients. Also my video card would overheat frequently alt-tabbing between clients on one monitor. I fortunately got it working by using 2 monitors. This was happening to me prior to Crucible.
