Crashing Reports.

[76561199721797496]

Please post here if you have experienced any of the following hangs/freezes/crashes

Visiting Roundtable Hold for the first time.

Defeating certain bosses (please specify).

Upgrading a weapon to its maximum level.

Removing certain weapons/items from storage (not as consistent as others).

Various cutscenes e.g. right before the Credits.

I have experienced all of these starting today. Many of which were not occurring just yesterday (nor in the hundreds of hours prior). No known system, or software updates or changes have been made in the 10 hours during which my PC was turned off between play sessions.

EDIT: Due to the great investigative skills of user "dark-breed", they have concluded this is most likely related to a timeout of Steam's server achievement checks (even if you already have them), after their very recent maintenance.

Potential fix: You can disable Steam Cloud Saving, disable VPN, opt out of any Steam Beta, as these can potentially increase the likelihood of a timeout on the achievement server check.

I have experienced crashing 3 times now trying to fully upgrade my weapons.

You already posted in my thread about this, but yes same here. Basically any major boss seems to cause it. Specifically Hoarah Loux, Lattena, O'Niel (the one you have to kill to get to Haligtree), Malenia, and Mohg all did it.
Fresh file, no ray tracing, lowest settings, offline mode. No matter what it kept crashing, meanwhile my game was literally playing perfectly yesterday.

what point to a problem at windows/driver side.
is it this hard to analyse a problem by show the crash log you get, to narrow down the cause ?

btw yesterday was a GPU driver update no change at the game at all, you do not need to be a sherlock holms to find out what happend.

You do need to be Sherlock Holmes to find out what happened if the current driver version is 556.12 from June 27th, the same driver I've been playing on for hundreds of hours. Also, no log is being created from these crashes, at least for me. The only crash dumps are from days ago when I don't even recall any crashing, but if someone else could post theirs if they have one it might help.

I would recommend to anyone experiencing this to use DDU to reinstall GPU drivers anyway, just in case, even if you haven't updated drivers. Try older drivers first.

(for some reason I can't post on my other account).

Got the round table crash twice. After the first one I delayed going for a while, but it still froze on the load screen and effectively destroyed the character.

Where can I find the crash log?

Crash logs are typically in C:\Users\[NAME]\AppData\Local\CrashDumps

no they are not they are in the windows event viewer

this is why you do not find a log

windows key+r
eventvwr
left side windows logs and there applications
now you see all logs, the eldenring crash logsa appear as a red one event ID 1000

this are not the crash logs this a dumps and dumps are useless to identify a cause without windbg and some more information from the crash logs itself.

so it looks like it is hard for normal users to use and maintain windows correctly.

this is a hang type problem what means the game stopped responding during a other fault in the system, this can be a other crashed application with a log short before this log or a third party software caused a problem, a deeper analysis would be needed to identify why the game stopped responding.

just to add this is not a crash of the game it got terminated by windows.

this log points to a problem with the directx communication, this can be related to a broken c++ installation, a defective GPU driver or faulty windows files.

a full system check would be need to eliminate the cause.
