Any error messages pop up? OpenGL seems to be the biggest game ruiner.

That and running it in window mode causes mine to crash quite often. Try toning down most of the video options and running it in full screen at the correct resolution for your monitor. Muggins showed me this and it has stopped quite a bit of my crashes. I can actually run for the whole night without a single crash. There has been many people blaming the ATI graphics cards but after doing what was suggested by muggins it works quite well.
