Was crashing every 30m, now can't even reconfigure settings...

[bitrott]

4090, 13th gen intel processor, ultra widescreen. Game would work very well with solid FPS for about 30m at a time then crashed. After the 5th such crash I tried running it in safe mode but it crashed on the main menu. Occasionally it's stable enough to get to settings, but then crashes when changing resolution.

Very frustrating as this was shaping up to be my GOTY

Yup this game is a total buggy disaster. Crashes like every 10 min on my RTX 3090 or more often.

Sounds self inflicted to me...

Let me guess, you got an 13th or 14th generation Intel CPU?

Either way, I didn't have a single crash of this "buggy disaster".
RTX 4070 Ti Super, Ryzen 5900X, 32GB RAM...

14700K/ 4090 no crashing.

I assume you "fixed" your CPU with a Bios update in time to save it... many others apparently didn't...

Let me guess: You are using frame generation?
Turn it off, and your problems are gone.

Wow I can't believe no one thought of that, what would one do without you around?

Yes I've updated my bios awhile ago but it wasn't to "save" it.

I doubt frame generation is the problem. I'm running a 14900k and a 4090 with everything maxed and frame generation enabled. No crashes after 15+ hours. Most likely culprit is the established Intel 13th- and 14th-gen bug. If so, and assuming OP's CPU isn't too far gone, a BIOS update should resolve his crashing issues.

Yeah it probably still did just that. Intel added new Microcode for these CPUs to recent BIOS updates to stop them from "destroying" themselves.

Well then I'm glad I did then. I rarely ever update my bios, usually the only time is on a fresh build.

My game keeps crashing and crashing, stopped playing until next update. Tried everything. Bios updated, i9 14900KF and 4090, the problem is only with this game. When I change some settings the crash stops for some hours, but next day it crashes again. Tried older Nvidia driver, graphics on low or supreme, 1080p, 2K, 4K, DLSS on or off, FG on or off, nothing solves the problem

Did you test your CPU? Intel has a utility for that:

What drivers did you try? I'm still using 565.9 and the game runs flawless with that.

That might become a problem shortly, when future driver updates bring some of the new RXT 50 features to our older cards, but until then, I'll avoid the 266.x drivers...

Yes, I run Intel diagnostics tool every week, and it´s working fine. I dont think the problem is CPU again.

I tried driver 565.9, it stopped crashing for a day, then crashed next day.

I don´t understand what is going on with this game. If you play NFS Heat you´ll see that CPU usage will be at 100% almost all the time and the game runs at 150 FPS without any crashes. And not only this game, Alan Wake 2, Cyberpunk and BlackMyth Wukong runs fine too without crashes.

We need to wait the next update from bethesda and nvidia to see if it works.

Did the nVidia app auto-update you back to the current-driver?

No bro, I thought this had happened, but it didn't. It crashed with driver 565.9
