crashing at whitescreen

[kirbyrolla]

(i accidentally posted this in the trading section OOPS.)

I've seen other people having this issue, but as I far as I can tell no definitive fix has been found. I've tried everything: rebooting the pc and steam, uninstalling and reinstalling nightreign, running both the executable and the protected game in administrator, disabling the firewall, changing ram settings, checking graphic drivers, windows update, adding -dx11 or -dx12 in steam, deleting and reinstalling EAC, and more. I feel so defeated and I just want to play the damn game :( is my only hope to wait for a patch?

the weirdest thing to me is that elden ring itself boots and runs fine. whatever they changed with the anti-cheat refuses to work. at one point I had gotten the error 30005 talking about file 32 or whatever, but I feel like I've done everything to allow permissions. if anyone has any other tips or ideas please let me know.

There are two of us now, well, many. I've tried everything you mentioned, but nothing works. I suspect it has to do with the GPU, but I'm not sure.

It's the same issue that ER has. It is caused by CPU affinity & From Software being last gen developers.

The solution is to make sure that the game has access to all cores and threads.
Maybe you're process lassoing, maybe you have an X3D cache, maybe you're using hyperthreading, maybe something else CPU related is going on.

Example: If I run the game on cores 0-7 & 16-23 (my x3d cores) I get the white screen.
When I run it on 0-31, it starts up correctly.

Fix for Linux: launch with taskset -c 0-* (with * being the total combined cores and threads in YOUR CPU)
Fix for Windows: Process Lasso or tweak whatever software is messing with your CPU affinity

i've heard of process lasso before, is that like a software or something?

The issue is TPM. I was also experiencing these crashes, and the fix mentioned here [clawsomegamer.com] resolved it for me.

ive had the same issue with og elden ring, I was hoping it would be fixed for nightreign but alas — I still whitescreen..

I have the same problem, me and a friend with the same problem have tried ALL possible fixes in the world. Nothing changed. We Just need to wait for the patch on next week. Remember to give a "not recommended" on steam reviews and explain the white screen crash on the Review. This is the only way to minimal ensure they will fix this next patch

[Zorian]

I found a fix that worked for me.

I watched this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFOJsfL_CF4

specifically downloading the Visual C++ x86 and x64 files and restarting my PC is what got it working

what GPU you use ?
what crash log you get ?
i assume you use a intel igpu / outdated dx11 GPU or you have a bigger windows issue you do not know about.
