Freeze/Crash & BSOD issues

[PandaTaru]

With almost everyone posting that they have a Nvidia card, it's kind of hard to not see the pattern and put the cause on the drivers from Nvidia..

For those having a similar problem with a ATI card, I read somebody is using some very old ATI drivers 12.10something (drivers from October 2012), update to the latest stable drivers. Or latest beta if you're in an adventurous mood.

With almost everyone that reported a BSOD using nvidia drivers it's probably not the case, but if your computer BSOD during a gameplay it's best to check the memory and if the computer doesn't overheat or has a good airflow just in case. A fan like the one that exhaust the hot air at the back from your computer can stop working and cause your computer to overheat. which also causes the memory to only give errors during a gameplay session and not when it's "cooler" like, say, 10~20 minutes after the computer crashed. It's never a good sign when your computer suddenly becomes silent.

@Raace; a corrupted game asset crashes the game not the whole computer.

its not an overheating issue. every single person has checked their temps. they're all fine

It definitely isn't an overheating issue. I've monitored my card and it never goes above 70°c. Game also runs very smooth, 50+fps.

I'm getting the same kind of problem but it's only in dungeons and no where else in the game. I'll be keeping my eye on this thread and I hope SE will be able to address this issue officially soon.

bump.

till SE resolves this issue

same here. temp ranges from 50-60's...40-60 fps depending on the situation...then sudden black/white screen, or driver crash locking me to 11 fps

I had hopes it would be fixed in this update today but just had to reboot due to black screen with white stripes. Its very annoying and makes the game very hard to play. I set up MSI afterburner to ramp the fans up when temps hit over 60 and that doesn't seem to help at all. Guess I'm going to have to do a fresh OS install and set everything up from scratch to see if it will work. But honestly I doubt it because nothing else manages to crash my PC, stress tests, Far Cry 3, Crysis, GW2 just to name a few...

Don't bother with the OS, it is the game. Most you can do is complain to SE Support with a link to this thread.
