PoE causes system crash. Progression impossible
|
It's not a blue screen, my system just crashes and then instantly restarts. I suspect it's a graphics driver issue but I updated my drivers and the problem persisted. It most frequently happens when I am fighting some sort of a boss, and also seems to only happen when that boss is attacking instead of something else like walking. However I also once crashed as soon as I picked up the starter weapon in strand, and I sometimes crash in regular play.
System specs: Windows 7 version 6.1 (build 7601: service pack 1) Cpu: AMD FX-6300 Gpu: AMD HD 7870 driver version 16.200.1013.0 Ram: 8G I'm also using the steam version of the game and have verified the consistency of my game files. I am using onboard sound. Edit: I have found a spot that crashes my computer consistently (making progression impossible) to the immediate upper right of the waypoint in the imperial garden. Cast on Crit too much fun. Last edited by ThisFrickinSite#3601 on Jul 13, 2016, 2:00:24 PM Last bumped on Jul 13, 2016, 8:50:15 PM

Are you sure you have the correct driver installed? The version number you've provided doesn't seem to match with what is on the AMD website:
32 bits - http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+7+-+32 64 bits - http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+7+-+64 |

I updated them again but that didn't help.

I don't believe this is a driver issue, but I do have to wonder if it's AMD related. I play on Linux with the opensource drivers and I've had this happen a couple of times.
My specs: FX 8350 HD 7870 GHz Edition It may just be coincidence that we have the same type of GPU... |
