Everytime I start Hammer after starting up the computer, it crashes! Then I open it again, and it's ok.. Anyone else have this problem? And sometimes, video-updating with the 2-d views gets messed up and Ill have to restart the computer to make it work... Am I just short on RAM?

Not really, but sometimes I get an error from Hammer and it shuts down.
But that's like 4 times a year. Sometimes I get a message, like: Couldn't find OpenGL Driver. But that's only when I shut down Hammer.
Well your problem sounds strange, I don't think it's the RAM, cause I used Hammer on my old PC (100Mhz, 8Mb RAM). Except that it went a bit slow. (Hmmm...a bit?)

Clownfish typz0r3d:Dunno - what're your specs? Could be old/bad graphics drivers/DirectX.

Hmmm... Something that works for me is to reinstall the whole thing. Uninstall Hammer and then Reinstall it and see if it works... If it doesn?t, well, may be some video card problem. It crashes with any particular message or just crashes?... I had a similar problem (Hammer crashing when saving a file, how do you like that??) and solved it by reinstalling...
If reinstalled and crashes, try downloading it again, just to make sure that is not Hammer the thing who fails and then just blame your computer. Maybe a video conflict?. My girlfriend?s father had a problem with running audio applications and was a problem of 2 applications trying to use the same device. Maybe Hammer is running twice?.

I'll get back to you with the specs. I have this borrowed computer now and I havn't checked up on that now. It's got 128 MB RAM though... I use Hammer and still have Worldcraft installed - maybe that's (part of) the problem?

Having Hammer and worldcraft installed on the same cpu doesn't create problems. I've had it so for ages and no trouble there. No, the sloution is something else.
