If that doesnt work, it should probly work well after rebooting, it happens to me once a while.
doesnt have to be video or sound card, it can also be u got the wrong type of RAM in ur computer that conflicts with eiterh the original RAM or ur motherboard settings, if this is the case ur screwed cuz then u need to buy new.

Hellwolf's Guide to fixing Critical Error (Unhandled Exception 0x8E)

-Bad Drivers
Update your video card when new drivers come out. Go to your manufacturer's website to download the latest.

-Insufficient RAM
Get more RAM, make sure its of the right frequency so it doesnt lead to incompatibility. Eg. If you can support DDR 400, then get them DDR400 to avoid a problem. If you have more than one, take out one, and run Warcraft III. Then repeat for your other RAM. If one stick is causing the crash, then replace it with one that works!

-Motherboard Conflicts
This is one nasty mother ****er. You would need to either update your current drivers. Or even go as far as Flashing a new BIOS (requires reinstall and hopes that it doesnt crash in reinstallation). Or even to disect your computer and install a new motherboard (4-5 hrs. you dont want to do).

-PSU not strong enough (STRONG)
This is the most common problem that is often overlooked. It happened to me when I owned a JGE 300W PSU before I got it replaced. It wasn't passing enough volts through the 12V Line (15A). Open your case, and look at your PSU label for the 12V line(not colour, the AMPS). If the number is below 20-22A, then you need to get it replaced. Its not sending a powerful enough current through the motherboard to power everything!

-Lacking Video Card Drivers (STRONG)
See first problem, ATI users need to uninstall thier previous drivers in order to make room for the newer ones properly :D

-Your running 3D sound with a card that doesnt support it (makes a different error message)
This will make a different error message. Saying that the mp3 was failed to initialize. Users running a RealTek Audio chipset will have to turn off 3d sound to avoid this problem. If your sound card/chipset supports it, turn it on!

-You have anti-aliasing on (wc3 hates this feature, water.blp doesnt load right)
This was a bad issue back when ATI Catalyst was around 4.5-4.8. Anti-aliasing was always on and Warcraft III is a real prick when dealing with Anti-aliasing, mostly because the water models wouldnt be able to work properly. Find a way to turn it off, or install 4.10+ (anti-aliasing wasnt on default in those versions).

-RAM incompatiable (HIGH)
Look at Insufficient RAM! This problem is more likely to occur when you have more than 1 stick of RAM supporting your PC.

-Your running openGL (remove -opengl tag) from Properties
If you right click on your shortcut and select Properties, you'll find where your shortcut is running to. Look at the end of it, for the -openGL tag. This shouldn't be here, OpenGL is buggy and will **** up the text in your game. Remove this tag!!!

-Virus (STRONG)
You could have a virus that is plauging your system. You can run an anti-virus scan or reformat your hard disk. Reformating clears everything (requiring Windows reinstall) but you will have nuked the viruses.

-Too Many programs running at once (STRONG)
Control Alt Delete > Close off any programs that you don't want running. To free up physical memory so your RAM doesnt overload and close Warcraft III.

-Models could be rendered incorrectly (updates and fixes, custom models)
Not really a common problem, was in DOTA!!! Some custom models may have not been done incorrectly and the game will crash. Not much you can do, update your game and use models that work properly for best effects.

-DRAM Voltage TOO LOW!!
Another problem, it requires you to tamper with your BIOS settings!!!! Load up the BIOS the way would do it. Then find the option called DRAM Voltage. Set it to the maximum value. Your BIOS may warn you if its unsafe, unless your PSU IS POWERFUL!!! :D.

-AGP Aperture Size TOO high!
The value of this must be half of what your video card is (Eg. if its 256MB, then set Aperture to 128MB, and so on). If you use the full value, your card will stop working properly!

-Fast Writes and XAGP
I usually have this at 4x and Fast Writes on. If your computer can support it, go 8x and Fast Writes. However, your motherboard needs to have the feature on! BIOS has an option called AGP Fast Writes within it, it must be enabled to work properly. If it doesn't support it, it could be crashing your computer!

-Overheating
If parts get too hot, they will stop functioning properly. Use better fans or cooling systems to operate these parts and keep them cooled.
There you go, MY VERSION OF N_Edd's guide to fixing War3 Critical Error or any Unhandled Exceptions (0x8E)! most of the Critical Error Problems Solved. STOP 0x8E is a problem these days, but it can still be stopped. I'll help you with your problem, but I don't have no system specs so I cannot exactly tell you what the hell the problem is :(

REinstalling may not help, because if its software or hardware problem.
