Bought today; get whitescreen then crash?

[MajinKenpachi]

Heya; i have been looking through the threads and i have validated about 6 times deleted files to make it replace the deleted files in windows/temp, updated direct x and restarted my computer over 15 times... Ran all windows and intel updates and tried a few fixes involving changing nvidia settings.... Please help..? I bought this game early today and have been troubleshooting since..

[MajinKenpachi]

apparently this happens every update and people just spam verify files to fix it..... Continuing to try to verify for more than 10 times with and without restarts is almost the definition of insanity.... doing the same failed attempt shouldn't end up fixing it????

I have a intel HD graphics 630 but i am using my nvidia quadro m1200 which is in the same laptop... 32 gigs of ram and an intel i-7 core

Your GPU is not designed for gaming and way below the system requirements
Either upgrade your PC or get a refund

An older version of MSI Afterburner caused this to happen on one of my PC's. Updated it and now the game launches with the statistics again. It worked fine with it not open every time I tried it. If you're using any onscreen apps while the game tries to launch try not using it and see if it will start. Also if you don't meet the minimum requirements you at least need a DX12 video card to play the game.

My nvidia m1200 is capable of playing these games; and it meets system requirements..

Quadro M1200
Max Memory Size: 4096 MB

Core Clock(s): 1093 MHz

Memory Clock(s): 1253 MHz

DirectX: 12.0

OpenGL: 4.5

Max TDP: 45 W

everything has been closed even discord and one drive

open your Nvidia control panel and where it says content type reported to display at the bottom, change it to desktop programs

Dude you are sorely misinformed your gpu is equivalent to a gtx 750 which is way way below minimum specs which is a gtx 1060. That is a really old laptop time to upgrade buddy.

Open DxDiag
Search > DxDiag > Render Tab (since you have a quadro should be here, the display tab will show the onboard gpu instead)
Under "Drivers" in the Right box, look at feature levels.
If it doesn't say at least 12_0, that is why you get a white screen.
For some reason unknown to me, quadros while sister cards to the geforce counterparts (and much more stable-long term) were not included with the feature levels past 11_0, at least near as I can tell.

There is no way to resolve that for this game, with that card sadly.
Hope this sheds a little bit of light on stuff for ya.

The Quadro M1200 is DX12(11_0) meaning that it's a first gen DX12 GPU. Elden Ring checks for DX12(12_0) compliance during the white screen and then exits without error (it should at the very least tell you why it exited, but FromSoft's devs don't know what PCs are).

You can try this:

https://github.com/tuffee88/d3d12ProxyEdrDx11_0

This hack makes it so that Elden Ring now only checks for at least DX12(11_0) compliance. The downside is that you'll have to play offline and performance will probably be pretty bad. This is also assuming that it even still works. There have been a couple patches and hotfixes since the release of this hack, so it may or may not work at this point.

Incredibly helpful, thank you for trying to personally help me. U are correct and it does say feature levels 11_0, 10_1, etc... So sadly i guess i wont be able to play this..

I've been using the hack and the game runs pretty decent on medium settings. Just no online play when using it sadly. The online features always added that extra bit to the experience.

this actually worked, ive played 9hrs now on medium quality settings. Thank u way too much. i get no lag at all but if i afk and comeback or go to fast into a new area on torrent, the monsters are invisible but still not laggy and they reappear during their actions or fully if i chill at the bonfire thing. hopefully they fix the dx12 check so i can buy and play multiplayer

[nfinite.recursion]

Good to hear that the hack worked for you and does indeed still work after the patches.

For invisible enemies, you can try this mod over at nexus mods:

https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/109/

Whenever the game drops below 30 fps it starts culling (not rendering) entities. Aside from using the mod, you can turn down some settings or drop the resolution to 720p.

*push*?

[MajinKenpachi]

Does the game still check for DX12 and not start for DX11??
