Apex Legends crash

I hope that people come back to the forum and tell us if their ''ULTIMATE FIX'' didn't work. I updated from 417.71 to 418.81 to begin with because of the hung crash and I also reduced all settings to lowest in game and also repaired my files and nothing changed, It would be awesome if these ''fixes'' removed the problem but they don't, at least they didn't for me.

It's not driver's issue, it's still crashing like there is no tomorrow. Crashed 3 times to day so I just stopped playing until fixed.

I'm guessing from the lack of response from a dev or community manager that they don't know how to fix it. My only hope is that the next nvidea patch will fix it. Really would love to know why powerful pc's struggle to run games these days, i can't even run Quake Champions properly yet my old pc can, might be time to dust her off again lol. 

For me, this ended up being a CPU stability issue. I could run Aida64 fine, OCCT fine, Prime95 fine (with and without AVX), RealBench fine, and then I tried LinX and IntelBurnTest, those failed very quickly. I ended up increasing my CPU voltage slightly and was able to play for the rest of the night without issues. I let IntelBurnTest run overnight and continue while I'm at work today, its survived about 8hrs at this point.

I run an 8700K@5ghz 1.36v, I pushed that up to 1.37v with an AVX offset of 2.

I'm sure this isn't relevant to most in here but figured I'd share what worked for me.

It does not work lol mine are updated, stop being a bot and assuming people are stupid 

Im getting the  HUNG DEVICE ERROR  crash as well.     

I thought it was my  GPU messing up until I checked out this thread and seen other people were having this problem too.      

Guess ill play something else until this gets fixed.     Its really random when it happens to me.     Really really frustrating to deal with!

I wonder how many of these people having this issues are overclocking. Would be good to know.

I was constantly crashing with the DXGI errors. I crashed 6 games in a row before I downgraded to 417 drivers. That stopped the DXGI errors but then the game crashed with no error at all. I checked the event viewer, and it was showing an application error related to "bad_module_info".

I then took the "throw everything at it" approach: I reduced all in game graphics settings by half. I dropped my video card OC entirely. I loaded into bios, reduced my overclock from 4.9 to 4.8ghz. Reduced XMP from 3200 to 3000. I was able to finish 4 games in a row without a crash. So it is looking hopeful but maybe I've just been lucky. I need to do more testing and start adjusting the options I changed to see what triggers a crash.

Perhaps these issues are caused by people running "stable" overclocks that aren't truly stable.

My system:

9700k @ 4.8ghz 1.27v 0 AVX offset

Gigabyte RTX 2080 Gaming OC

16gb ram

Mine is not overclocked at all and it’s still crashing almost every game. I am running it at max settings though

win10?

Nothing listed here solves the problem. Sometimes it happens every game after like 20 seconds, sometimes i can play 2-3 without a crash. This is clearly some trash coding from the developer and that's why they are silent about it. Let's hope they learn how to do their job properly sooner than later and fix this.
