POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

"
Same issue, had to forcefully restart my PC 8 times by now.


Nvidia 4080 Super
AMd 7800x3
Windows 11 24H2



Basically same as my rig. Also happens during load screens between regions.
We are hundreds by now. This is not something we can (or should) fix it, this is obviously on them and, personally, I'm not gonna compromise my system tweaking here and there just because I want to play the game. I recommend you guys to wait patiently until they sort it out and we get a proper permanent fix. It's an EA and it's only 2-3 days since it was released, the best we can do is just wait.

Here is the problem. Same issue started happening in POE 1 few weeks ago and GGG has not fixed or adressed it.

Didn't they? Oh well, didn't know that, that's too bad. I guess I won't play it until they do. Again, I'm personally not gonna tweak my computer just for a single game.
Well, the issue is being investingating: it is present in the Known Issues thread.

I've tried most of the suggested fixes here on the forum and it still crashes my entire PC. There were no problems all friday and saturday. I can't play at the moment, I'm waiting for a fix. Too bad.
FPS not an issue for me, but anytime i try to load the game for the first time 5/10 it crashes my entire pc, forcing me to restart.

What the heck is going on where its crashing / freezing your entire pc???

Cant even crl + alt del..

PLEASE FIX THIS!!

See this. Same issues in POE 1 since November:

I have played Settlers league for like 200 hours, ZERO freezes. Then I quit and until week ago played Monster Hunter World. 3 days ago I logged back in to POE 1 to see some MTX, I got PC freezes when loading but did not pay attention to it. I had zero hardware changes to my PC since original setters league and only thing that changed was new POE 1 patch Necro Settlers and 24H2 update - One of these things caused the freeze and now also in POE 2.

The reason why we see so many posts about it now with POE 2 is because 100x more players are now trying out POE 2 copared to POE 1 in the past month.

I'm one of the affected too, Ryzen 5 5600x with GTX 1070 gpu. Disabling 2 threads fixes the issue temporarily. Make sure everyone that u report this to the Windows team so they can figure out a fix for this!

Windows already know about this, I think.

Several users have been complaining on Reddit and the Microsoft Answers forum for weeks about issues they have encountered. Common issues include black screen freezing and unresponsiveness while loading the game or during gameplay.
