Freeze/Crash & BSOD issues

[Miachu]

I just don't think this is going to be addressed in a timely manner, if at all..you would think a problem that is literally going to cost them money by making the game unplayable for several hundred people would be a priority..

Same issue for me, since the last maintance: freeze followed by shout down. I'm playing with a ATI Radeon HD 5700 on Win7....

This problem becomes worse and worse ...
Before, at least, i could sometimes play a after noon without freeze ...
Since this Friday - i can not play 10 minutes without freeze ! Nothing change in my configuration ( either in the game or in my computer ) - I'm afraid this game is causing irreversible damage to my computer ...
- I have the PS3 version, which is ugly and awful latencies . (> Dungeon not possible)
- Now I can not play on the desktop PC, because the game freezes now every 10 minutes. (> Dungeon not possible + mental integrity in danger)
- My laptop is not enough to run the game properly (I did not dare try a dungeon , since I get slowdowns in some areas with lot people - with the graphics at minimum...

SE, our patience to the limits ! Thank you to communicate on this issue ! The advice you give to the FAQ , do not solve anything ( and those given here does not realy work too ... ) - thank you to bring quickly at your client, a REAL solution to your programming problems on this game.

I tried a couple of things and I found a temporary fix:

Note: Make sure you do a clean/latest install of the vga driver before trying this

First of all you need to know what type of crash/BSOD you are getting
If it's a BSOD with video_tdr_failure you will have to install MSI Afterburner "or any other similar application" and set it up with:
Power Limit %75
Core Clock -40
Memory Clock -40
The reason behind it is, That the VGA requires more power than what the Power Supply can provide and causes the VGA card to crash.

If you are getting a straight forward Freeze and crash:
Go to the BIOS and disable the PCI-Express 3rd generation


Let me know if this works for you!
