POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

Also running into the same issue.
Some loadingscreens randomly fully freeze my PC resulting in having to hard reboot.
This also happens in PoE since patch 3.25.3 and didn't happen before.

RIG:
AsRock B450 Pro4
Ryzen 7 5800X
RTX 4070 Super FE
2x16GB DDR4 3600Mhz
Windows 11 Pro 24H2 Build 26100.2605

Is GGG already on Christmas vacation or are they still working till the end of the week ?

I have the best water cooled gaming pc money can buy and I am still crashing. My temps in game are low cpu at 55C in game, during loading spikes to 75C for a sec, gpu stays very cool at 50-55C. I play @4k Native 120fps smooth no fps drops, max settings. Crashing during loading screens and sometimes crash when I stay to long in inventory/stash tab.

9800x3d
X870e Taichi
Rtx 4090
64gb ddr5 ram
Nvme SSD gen4
Windows 11 pro

It's not about temps.
Any more news about this? Soon two weeks with having to force restart PC lol
I turned off multithreading in the options menu and this hasn't happened to me since.
Just happened to me, I updated W11 Pro version 24H2 a few days ago, never had to hard reset my computer before the update.

I have all drivers updated.. hope this bug is fixed soon
Could be something with Win11 latest update as well
Except for freezes with POE2, I started to get yellowish tint randomly
Like, open another game - yellowish tint for this game only
Quit the game - yellowish tint everywhere except for the games

Game is great so far, guys!
No need to hurry just ensure the fix!
following worked (for me) and game stopped freezing completly, nothing else worked (tried everything with cpu/fps lock, nothing worked) :

make a exception in the Windows defender for follwing folder: "C:///User/User/appdata/roaming/Path of exile 2" --> restart computer one time --> no freezes and much smoother loading without any lag -->

windows defender was checking the shader cache everytime while it was created during the loading
For what it's worth, I tried disabling hardware gpu scheduling in windows graphics settings as suggested - so far so good. I had one short hitch that I was sure was going to end in tears, but it recovered.

I've been able to play for a couple of hours without a crash now, something that I couldn't do before. Touch wood that it continues. If it's just a placebo effect and the crashing starts again, I will return to the thread and mention it.
