Literally crashing my system

[Arbadacarba]

I’m guessing it’s the Easy Anti Cheat, I have nothing nefarious installed but this game unlike any other can actually reboot my system with its crash. Have not had anything like this since windows XP.
CTD sure but this is something else

Lmao, bro this exact same thing just happened to me. I was a bit afraid it could be my hardware failing but I've played intensive games with no issue and it has quite literally never happened before. Upon further research I've found posts like this one and wouldn't you know it, I find yours soon after it happened to me too. Yeah, I can't be @ssed to give this or Amazon the time of day again.

Yeah, first time my system has crashed to reboot (not CTD) which indicates it’s very low level code, meaning likely the anti cheat which runs at kernel level I believe, and this is using the more stable dx11

Tonight has been particularly bad for disconnects, no idea why. I was doing one of the Azoth Staff quest chain on an alt, and from clicking to enter the instance, I must have been disconnected about 8 times during the fight with the boss. Luckily, the game would put me back exactly where I was when the disconnects hit!

1 crash in 80 hours since relaunch.
Win 10 FTW

If your pc is restarting I would blame the cpu or your ram. You can test this by turning off xmp or downclocking your cpu by 200mhz and testing again. If crashes stop doing those things you will need to replace the item since it is faulty.

Yeah I default to it being a hardware error also, but in this case I’ve had the system 3 years now with not a single crash, I don’t get crashes playing anything else beyond the occasional CTD, I can run 48hrs of Prime95 72hrs of memtest86, countless loops of cinebench without issue, hence my thinking it’s a software fault, and I am pretty sure EAC uses kernel level drivers and something there isn’t playing well with WIN11.
