TRY THIS FIX 


This happened to me, my laptop has a built in NVIDA GTX graphics card, the card is faulty (works on occasion) and it pretty much means that when it attempts to render too much, it can't handle it and closes the application that is overloading it. (Also each graphics card has it's own memory allocation, if your graphics card dedicated RAM is not high enough, the same issue will occur)

This explains why it works on single player because there's much less to render, it is an odd glitch and happens intermittently. 

It might be worth disabling your graphics card (see bottom for instructions) and if that doesn't work from that menu, then if you're using NVIDIA or another graphics card, try and disable it from within it's own control panel, and selecting it to use on-board graphics (for e.g. your basic Intel HD graphics)

My problem is now permanently solved because I no longer use my graphics card. 

Hope this helps,
Mike.





In order to disable a graphics adaptor, go to the Control Panel. You can search for it using the Start menu (or Start screen in Windows 8) and then click on Device Manager under Devices and Printers. Under Display adapters you can right click on a graphics card and choose disable.

Firstly thanks for the reply!
Secondly how would I go about doing this on Windows 7?
