After every multi game, Myth automatically crashes. No post game or anything.

Myth log reads "Error#1337: Myrd's hypothetical resolution switching failure."

I don't know if that will help you fix it.

I would recommend using the Classic version. This is the very reason why we have the windowed & classic versions. The windowed version is very XP oriented where as Classic is about the same as 1.5.1.
