Programme has stopped working

[DrDeath]

Okay i dont know what to do can anyone help me? thanks in advanced.

My problem is that im having games crashing to desktop without any error basically for example Deus Ex has stopped working. All my drivers are up to date and iv done clean installs of windows and my bios was updated last week.

What i have noticed though is that Overwatch runs fine which is installed on my ssd which is also my windows installation drive and any game i am running from my HDD's will come up with this error.

here is some info from my event log for my latest crash

same problem for me. My game stuck at the mission Fly to GARM. It crashes when the aircraft is taking off.

probably not the case with you but my ram is on its way out

I remember Elite Dangerous used to have a similar problem with Factory Overclocked Graphics Cards, when jumping into hyperspace. Had to prevent the Cards from raising/lowering power/GPU clocks and set it to be more "constant".

I battled with Deus Ex MK last night for several hours, crashing at random times, tried a bunch of things, then remembered this little tip:

Set Power Management to "prefer Maximum Performance" in Nvidia Control Panel as seen here:

After that, played for several hours with no issues.

Maybe this will help? Worth a shot I suppose.

I've played this game just fine some time ago, it was not technically perfect but good. Recently I've decided to complete all the DLCs, so installed the game again. After I've started playing Jensen's stories, I've faced this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ridiculous issue. Game just crashing to the desktop every 5-10 minutes without any errors or something. Inside the game crash log I've found 0xc0000005 error due to Access violation. So I've started digging in... I've tried everything from few different threads:

Past two days thing I've tried:
1. Removing Eidos Montreal from AppData/Roaming before and after launch
2. Removing Nahimic audio drivers
3. Updating Realtec audio drivers
4. Rollback to previous builds through the game properties
5. Turning off all user process except steam and DeusEx
6. Turning off Steam overlay
7. Switching different graphics and display settings (exclusive, full screen, windowed, low, ultra, etc.)
8. Making chkdsk /f for C drive
9. Turning on/off all the DLCs
10. Since I have overclocked RAM I've even tried to us default values and below, like 1600MHz
11. Detaching all the devices and Bluetooth at all
12. Playing with Nvidia control panel

Uhh... But then, I've remembered... I had one stunning issue, when game was unable to load next level after I've finished first act and come to the aircraft, game was crashing during load screen just like this. The solution was to set custom affinity to the game process, limiting it's processors count to 4. So it's working now as well.

Go to the Task Manager -> Details tab -> RMB to DXMD.exe -> Set Affinity -> limit it to a few cores up to 6 (maybe it will be good using more cores but I didn't tried). Here we go, game runs just fine for few hours. SOLVED FOR ME.
