hmmm.. from what i know GOW on pc is a buggy game, try searching on google for GOW crashes, they might have a fix - also, it could be the omega drivers fault.... (i dont know much about them, since i dont use them)

i have that problem too, patched it up but to no avail. What I did is I just don't press anything in the dialog box the pops up (Microsoft Send Error Report or sumthing) and just maximize the GoW Window.

hmm... yea that would work .. but like my whole pc just freezes when the game crashes .. so I cant even go back to the desktop or anything ... have to manually restart the pc everytime .. and so far i havn't gotten any clear answers on google other than its just a realllll buggy game

You need this:

Windows Live Update, MS makes it almost impossible to find though...

It's not a problem with GOW but with Windows Live/XBOX Live.
