Studies show that 92% of teens listen to rap. If you are part of the 8% that listens to real music the add this to your signature.

I have had a similar problem with fraps myself. If I close fraps while the GW is still active the game just crashes. I have not investigated further but just been living with it and not closing fraps down while in game.
Other problem I have seen with fraps is after loading the saved files into adobe pro the captures still look grainy.

I can't tell you what's wrong, but when I first got Fraps, there were those small bugs that were sorta annoying.
But since then, my Dad changed some of the code in Fraps and it works perfectly for me. Instead of Gigs of video, now it's just a few hundred Megs, without much loss in quality.
I would only suggest that you don't close it while your game is still running. And when you view your videos, does it crash?
Edit-
Should have asked this, but is it recording at all?

im not 100% positive but to me it seems that fraps wich was made for XP converted to be conpatable for vista (which you are using) does not record xp games converted for vista (ie. DoD, CSS, GW ect)
get intouch with fraps help

http://www.fraps.com/faq.php
edit: when i say "converted games" btw i dont mean uve got something to convert them to vista i mean like they are actually vista games but were XP games made into Vista by there makers

When they edit the footage they will just move the movieclip location on the page so that the black bars are off the visible area, if that makes sense.

Windows Movie Maker is actually half decent, comes free with windows XP, I'd assume also with Vista. If not try a google for it, surely microsoft must have made at least some stuff compatible with vista :P
If you have access to Adobe Premiere/Adobe Aftereffects they're worth using, happens to be two programs that I have open atm, editing my own short film for uni. They do require lisences though.
I'm sure there's other free movie editing software, but you can't go too far wrong with windows movie maker :P
