Just cause 3 causes my PC to get the blue screen of death D;
Whenever i play this game either at start up or shortly after or even mid-game it causes my my pc to get the blue screen of death, i dont remember exactly what it says but its something along the lines of

"your pc ran into a problem and needs to restart. We're just collecting some error info, and then we'll restart for you"

and at the bottom its got windows stop code. i dont remeber the exact error but this only happens when i play this game. My specs are higher than the minimum requirement but lower then the recommended.

any advice? thanks.

Just so it's out of the question, what exactly are your specs? Also could you provide the exact error? There's way too much uncertainty in your comment

thanks for your continued support,

i visited that website and when i went to the nvidia control panel i dont see

"Select the preferred graphics processsor for this program:"

like it shows on the screenshots provided on the website.

Well, on the site the guy who has the problem describes that when he runs photoshop he gets the BSOD. I neven got that message when running Just Cause 3. Go to Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Computer Management/Event Viewer/Windows Logs/Applications, the error message should be in there, the list starts from the most recent action/error, if it's an error, it will be displayed with a red icon, from there you can see the error in a more detailed form. I suspect an outdated driver to be the problem. The Event Viewer should say the cause.

so strange, went to event viewer and then went to applications, and i see nothing related to just cause 3....

my drivers are all up to date aswell.

The messages in the event viewer are time based, from the most recent to the oldest. Try to remember the time that the BSOD happened. The message before its name should have a yellow icon. If nothing is there then I don't know. Try sending a minidump crash file to the support of Just Cause 3. The crash dump files are located in C/Windows folder. Just search for Crashdump or dump or similar.
