Kingdom Hearts Frequent Crashing

[Country Fried Chaos]

So, I see a few people have this problem, but I've been having problems with KH crashing, about every hour to hour and a half. Sometimes less. During one of these crashes, this popped up.

"The instruction at 0x00007FF68AA991C2 referenced memory at 0x00007FF68A448054. The memory could not be read."

From what I was told by a tech savvy friend, this is a memory leak problem. I also saw in the discussion that setting the Nvidia processor is the solution. Is this a good solution?

1. Open Nvidia Control Panel
2. Under 3D Settings > Manage 3D Settings > Program Settings
3. Select Kingdom Hearts as the program to customize (there may be multiple, one for each game).
4. For the preferred graphics processor select "High-performance Nvidia processor"
5. Click apply

From what I understand this forces the program to use the Nvidia GPU and not the integrated graphics. Let me know if this works for anyone else.

Not sure if there is something similar for AMD

I did this, I still got a crash after a little while.

It's not NVidia or AMD the problem is the code porting, cracked version don't have memleak and work better than the official release, they royally ♥♥♥♥ up the release and it crash on all games exep if your lucky and your pc don't reconise the game then it'll work "normaly" but 20% or more can't play the game at all, 20 more % can't play without crashing for more than 1 hour. so 40to 50% of player feel like it's a big scam.

my game crash around 1h30-2h everytime so yeah i save my game very often. very frustrating when it crash multiple times a day when you try to farm exp and materials or just progress through the game.

No, this sounds about right, considering my techie friend told me the game has a memory leak. With a number of people saying there's an issue it sounds like it's on the fault of the game. None of my other games have this problem, I did a check of my hardware, and it's fine.

Idk if a cracked version works better, but I am curious if there's a way to make this version run better. Otherwise, I'm a bit frustrated with the constant saving. Still, it isn't going to stop my enjoyment, although it is definitely going to make a game like Chain of Memories a ♥♥♥♥♥ to beat.
