Random Crashes to Desktop
I don't know what's causing the issue, but every time I play this game it randomly crashes to desktop. I have less than 4 hours in the game so far, and have crashed probably 8 times so far. I've got a 4080 Super with updated drivers, running with ultra graphics and get over 100 fps on average. There is no common cause that I can identify for the crashes, and they've never occurred at the same place twice. I've really been enjoying the game, but these crashes are killing the experience for me.

So I have the same video card you do, also had the same issues you have. I know that others have suggested rolling back drivers but I didn't do that. I use DDU (display driver uninstall) program and reinstalled the latest drivers. So far so good. Please read carefully how to use this program(safemode) etc but anytime I have an issues like this DDU saves me from having to stop playing and wait for a patch if its not broken too bad. Good luck. Hope you can play after. Its a wonderful game.

I have the same card and use Full Path Tracing with Frame Generation. But I keep the texture pool size to high or the one right above high. You might be running out of VRAM on the highest texture pool setting.

If it's not that, you are probably overclocking your GPU; and the overclock is not stable. When a game uses ray-tracing, DLSS, and DLSS frame generation, it will expose overclocking instabilities that other non-RT or non-DLSS games won't.

So, if it's none of the above, your CPU or system RAM overclock is unstable or just unstable in generatl.

I started randomly crashing after I found the hidden passage in the Vatican library. It just randomly crashed while I was walking down the stairs. It then crashed again later when I was in the courtyard. No error message.

12700k and 4070 Super, game installed on M2 SSD. The game is only at high settings and my temps are perfectly fine, only 45C on the CPU and GPU isn't even getting hot enough to spin the fans up. Everything is stock with the most up to date drivers. I'm maintaining about 55-60 FPS.

The only setting I changed was to increase FOV from 90 to 110 so I don't get motion sick.

I'd sure like to know what is causing these random CTDs.

Crashed again while exploring the Vatican. It actually looks like there are more recent up to date drivers, so I'm going to try that.

After updating from game ready drivers 566.06 to 566.36, the game just locks up now instead of crashing to desktop.

We need to report these crashes to bethesda, the game needs a patch and Nvidia needs to update the driver

I'm running an amd 7900xtx and 14900k running stock speeds and I'm still getting crashes. Stability seemed to improve some when I started running as admin, went from slight OC on cpu and ram back to stock, but now seeing crashes again after 20-30 minutes of playing time. There seem to be contributing factors, but no single culprit that causes these crashes. Really frustrating it's a fun game.

I had a 13th generation intel cpu and the game kept crashing to the desktop. This is how I found out that I was too late to patching the bios and the cpu was now f'ed. If you have an intel cpu I recommend trying a stress test. if it BSODs less than a minute into the test I'm sorry to tell you your cpu is hosed.

Just finished about 8 back and forth messages with Bethesda Support and fixed it (I think, played for an hour with no crashes, which is unprecedented for me). I have a 14th generation intel CPU. I had to go into the BIOS and disable Intel's Speed Step and Speed Shift Technologies. Hope this helps anyone with issues!

So, they need do release a patch. They need to adapt the game to the CPU's operation, not the other way around. There are people who don't even know how to change the bios settings. And in fact people don't even need to know how to change settings, Bethesda needs to update the game to work properly.

Imagine if, with every game released, people had to change the Bios settings to make it work. This doesn't make sense, the game developer should be the one to adjust this
