Apex constantly crashes while playing - randomly

Hi, my game constantly crashes while playing. Most times without any error message.

Sometimes it just closes to desktop without anything happening, sometimes there is a short lag, then its continuing for ~2 sec and then closes.

Last time it crashed, when restarting it said engine error 80070057. It was trying to create a pixel or something, dont remember correctly.

I've done serveral things trying to fix that.

The problem startet to occour after season 7 patch. first in origin then i switched to steam trying to fix.

the first times that i got that crashes, it said GPU physically removed and other errors i now dont remember.

Ive tried to repair the game multiple times. Then i reinstalled it.

I went into my services and selected the eac, set the action when crashes to restart client.

Went into properties of eac.exe and selected run as admin.

Unchecked the high dpi settings in r5apex.exe and also selected run as admin. also compatibility mode for win 7 (is said to help sometimes tho im using win 10)

Created a specific rule that allows the connection of the eac.exe.(firewall)

Set the adaptive resolution target to 60, reduced available vram from 8 to 6.

I disabled all unused sound devices in sounds manager aswell as the input (recording) devices except from my mic.

Updated gpu drivers, updated headset drivers.

On my mainboard site (asrock z270 taichi) are no new drivers available.

My pc is running pretty clean, i disabled alot auto start on boot processes, not for fixing but i want to have a clean running windows.

Ram is about 3,xy gb when i start windows.

And other things trying to fix that i dont remember atm.

Other games dont crash, just apex does.

DxDiag is as attached as well as my graphic settings.

thanks for the help in advance

    At least You have any kind of error. Mine just crashes without any message, nothing.

  • @PsyhiX69 Nope same problem like you, that error message occoured when trying to start not when it just shut down to the desktop without anything.

    No answer by the EA support, Ive red in other posts that they are very uncooperative and totally not satisfying.

    Its a great game - or was. Since this season, all the people I play with have problems. Except from one person everybody experiences crashes.

    I tried everything to fix that but it wont work.

    Fix your damn dirty piece of game!

    On top of all nobody cares about my issue!

    I will stop playing this god damn game and my friends as well if the situation will not improve!

  • Hello, from today I have a problem with launching Apex Legends. Every time I start the game, it crashes after a while and shows "Failed to create pixel shader 1 for <null name>: error code = 80070057
    Previously, this problem did not occur, please help
