Solution to BSOD/Crashes (Blue screen)
Player who have game crashes 3-4 minutes upon loading in should go into the BIOS and disable virtualization.

What is virtualization?
It's a CPU feature that allows you to run/host virtual machines and for whatever reason the driver Farlight 84 uses crashes your system when this feature is enabled.

How to disable virtualization?
Upon powering on your PC, you'll notice keys you need to press to enter BIOS setup, typically F2 or Del. Press this button repeatedly until you enter the BIOS screen. Head over to CPU configuration, look for Virtualization, if you're using Intel it can also be called VT-x/VT-d or VMX and if you're using AMD, it can sometimes be called SVM or AMD-V, if you see IOMMU, disable that too.

Check online how to enter bios on your device if you're having troubles

What effects does having virtualization disabled have?
You'll be unable to run android emulators like Nox, Bluestacks, Gameloop etc... or virtual machines in general like VirtualBox or VMWare.



I have no idea why the farlight driver suddenly crashes people's computers especially after the last update (mine included), but as of right now it seems like disabling virtualization is the only fix, either disable it or wait for next update.
