Serious instability on Windows 7, even with SDL patch

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or if this is just an issue with Nox. Basically I crash out after around 10 minutes or a round of gameplay. Map changes do NOT necessarily cause crashing and I can download new maps normally. My crash reporter is enabled and I have lock textures enabled (which apparently fixes compatibility, I don't know much about it.) Are there any fixes I can try? I've already tried running on different resolutions and in compatibility mode or as an admin, nothing seems to help.

Is there any pattern in the crashing except for 10 minutes? Is it something that happens? Or does it come completely out of the blue?

Also which version of nox are you using? Noxforum.net installer or GOG?

There's no pattern, it will happen in the middle of rounds and it doesn't seem to be on any kind of timer. I'm using the Noxforum.net installer, not the GOG version although I do own both.

Have you tried different versions, like not using the SDL patch with -window or with SDL patch -window, and different exe's like NoxPatched or with unimod?
