Crashing Problems

[PatoCarlo]

My specs:
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600x
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5600XT
RAM: 16GB
SSD: 1TB

It crashes sometimes minutes after starting to play. Sometimes it takes from 40m to 1 hour to crash, but eventually it does.
Sadly i cant go further than the first part of chapter 3 without the game crashing.
Does someone know what to do?

I also suffer from crashes, but the game does not crash, the windows restarts without warning during the game. It only happens to me in chapter 8 when the Valor crashes and in chapter 12 in the excavation area. And I can't finish the game. In the rest of the chapters everything is fine and fluid.

My spec pc are:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10900X CPU @ 3.70GHz 3.70 GHz
16 gb Ram
Win 10
Nvidia RTX 3080 ti
900 W psu

It only happens to me in this game and only on those two occasions. In other games, on YouTube, internet, movies, etc. 0 problems. I don't know what to do.

1st thing i would check is Event Viewer logs

Event Viewer - Windows Logs - Application
&
Event Viewer - Windows Logs - System

look for any warning/error entries

[Beardo]

In my problem with the game the Event Viewer said: Critical Kernel-Power 41, but all values in the event is 0.

Just wait for the incompetent and lazy devs to release the next useless patch.

Are other games crashing? If so it could be lots of things from an unstable overclock to a driver issue or whatever else.

If it is JUST Dead Space then I would make sure you're not over your VRAM. The game is a VRAM hog and when itruns out of VRAM it can plummet to single digit fps and maybe crash.

I'll try now to see if it crashes and what appears in Event Viewer, I'll be right back

if there's nothing in Event Viewer the next thing would be to do a clean boot, this eliminates conflicting software/driver issues

if the game run fine after clean booting you should be able to track down the culprit

NOTE: when disabling Services leave the Steam Client Service enabled

Yeah, same problem that Beardo has. Critical Failure Kernel-Power but all value are 0.
Drivers are updated, no OC, playing with 1080p medium settings and still crashing. I saw some benchmarks and even in high settings and a rig similar to mine the game goes fine.

No other games have crashed me with high or medium settings except some green screens caused by unstable AMD driver updates (Doom Eternal, Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA V, Cyberpunk 2077, Wolfenstein ll).
It could be the game or AMD drivers.

So idk, i'll probably just wait for some update fixing this issue.
