game will immediately crash after loading for a brief time

[PavX777]

I have no clue but my game was working perfectly fine this morning but now it doesn't load and crashes instantly I have uninstalled and reinstalled but the problem is still here. i am out of ideas and i have no clue how to fix. i have the event logger if that would help

I played about 150 hours offline with EAC disabled because I heard it could improve performance. Even then I still occasionally got this crash, but mine was much more infrequent than yours. I did not get it resolved.

Is this crash only happening for you during loading screens, or is also happening randomly while out exploring?

Try verifying game files, restarting windows, and then reverifiying. For some reason that can be required for things to take when it comes to this game.

Interestingly enough, I also have my windows pagefile set to default management. I wonder if the game really is that page intensive...

This crash never happend before yesterday and I don't know of it crashes another time because I can't even load in the menu screen. I've tried verifying files and steam says there is nothing wrong with it. I'm pretty sure I have windows on high performance so I don't think that's the issue

Doesn't launching ersc launcher(seamless coop) bypass EAC? If so then I've tried it and it still crashes with the ersc launcher

Yes, but seamless co-op itself is a potential point of failure too.

BTW, the error code means, the game had some issue writing to memory which can have all kinds of causes.

One thing you can also try, once you get back is go into the Display Settings in Windows --> Graphic Settings and disable "Hardware-Accelerated GPU Planning".

Could this memory error also come from ram that is not working anymore? I could try replacing my ram sticks with some of my friends

[Horse Glue™]

If your RAM was the issue you'd be having problems in more than just this game, and it would be significantly unlikely that you'd have an error at the same offset as someone else (myself). You could try setting your system page file to 1.5x your RAM amount to see if maybe it's a page issue, but I think it's unlikely.

Hopefully dark-breed stops by at some point and maybe helps shed some light on that particular offset.

Also, out of interest, what GPU/CPU do you use and what GPU driver are you running?

Very unlikely, since memory has gotten pretty reliable and you'd have stability issues elsewhere, like internet browsers (or their tabs) crashing.

Again, memory-access issues can have a large amount of possible causes, ranging from simple conflicts with other programs to hardware issues or a configuration issue with the OS. It can be a pita to troubleshoot, if you have no other leads to go by and have tried all the common troubleshooting steps for crashing with this particular game.

The napalm-strike solution would be to re-install Windows, since that almost always fixes any software/OS related problems. But chances are it's fixable without having to go through that trouble.

Do you run Tools like process lasso, process explorer or System explorer ?

This offset is a initialisation of a encryption function used over directx.
Most common it appears at running this tools in the System but there are more possible causes (faulty Windows files, malfunction gpu driver, other Background apps, instable overclock, the worst cases are faulty directx or Hardware problem)

So it would be needed to know what cpu and gpu you use too.

I use a i7 12th gen with a 3080 and I'm using the most recent Nvidia drivers

By reinstalling windows do you mean factory reset?

I use extream tweak 3 by asus but i never actually do anything except it launching automatically from start up
I use a i7 12th gen and a 3080

I mean a full re-install. Backup all your personal data from the drive Windows is installed and then re-install a clean Windows.
But again, it may be avoidable and it's more of a last resort thing, after you've troubleshooted enough, that you think it's worth going through the trouble.

[Horse Glue™]

I have the same offset but with a much different configuration, so it's likely either something in windows or a fault with Elden Ring itself.

Currently on Ryzen 7 2700x, 3060ti on driver 531.41, so it doesn't appear to be a difference in driver functions.

I wonder if dark breed could illuminate whether things like windows MPO, sysmain superfetch, and other misc things could relate to these issues.

[PavX777]

sadly i cant get in contact with him as his friends list is full currently

[Horse Glue™]

It would be nice to have an idea where to start. It's great to have an idea what it is, and so cool to see someone have knowledge to figure it out, but a "just fix everything it could be anything" is a little vague

I just don't want to go crazy making system changes when everything else works, and has worked, for the longest time.

[m_train1]

Delete a bunch of folders in the install folder then verify files. You may get lucky

[heixin]

I had the same issue and reinstall does not help.
