Re: Apex legends crashing without error

My game was crashing because of the in game overlays after disabling the origin and nvdia in game overlays my game worked fine.

Compiling list of "fixes" ive tried...

1. Reinstall game
2. Reinstall Origin
3. Reinstall both.
4. Repair game.
5. Deleted EasyAntiCheat and repaired.
6. Reinstall game to different drive HDD to SSD
7. Borderless, Windowed, Full
8. Delete Origin Cache
9. Turn off V-Sync, lower memory to 6gb- then 4gb. (running RTX 2070 8GB)
10. Set all to low settings
11. DDU'ed Driver back to dark ages version 417 then 416.
12. Turned off Discord
13. Turned off Origin overlay
14. Disable everything except the game
15. Hardware acceleration
16. -someone somewhere said do not use USB Soundcard for headphones- Used speaker instead.
17. Run on administrator mode????

My result:

1. Went from a smackfest of errors which includes "EasyAntiCheat's famed 30005 Cant create file .32" + "DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG" + "Random Crashes without Error Message"
2. to just "Random Crashes without Error Messages"

Gave myself a pat on the back and gave up (still crashing every 2nd game- best was 3 games no crashes) FYI Ive also tried doing ALL OF THE ABOVE fixes, still Nada.

My specs?

ASUS ROG MAXIMS HERO XI

G-SKILL 8GB x2 DDR4

GIGABYTE GEFORCE RTX 2070 Windforce 8GB

Intel i5 9600K

Plat 650W Juicebox

EA Senpai.. notice me

While we're all scurrying away trying to seek for an IT Guru to share a hotfix:

Us: Help us plis, we crashin' daily.

EA:

Game crashes everytime your GPU gets stressed or pulls more power (don't know the proper wording), the game hasn't crashed for a whole day when I turned vsync on @ 75 Hz. The only thing is, Vsync introduces mouse input lag, so I am going to test Vsync off but limiting my fps to 75 with MSI afterburner. 

What im guessing is if you have a good monitor (144Hz) and vsync on, it's still going to crash because 144fps is enough to stress your gpu and crash your game. Try limiting it to 75-80, I know it sucks but so far that's the only thing that worked for me really. 

#318 - You guessed right.. Running 144Hz but kept my eye on GPU usage. Didnt even hit past 50% perhaps you mean GPU throttle? Gonna give it a try to drop the frames right now. Cheers

EDIT: Oh gosh it hertz my eyes.

Ye that is correct, if the GPU is stressed out it crashes. I've got a 144 Hz monitor, so setting vsync didnt help much. I am playing at 720p. The game look like real poo poo, but I've been able to play for about an hour without a crash. 

Hopefully they fix the problem soon, because I want my game to look pretty!

Try gradually lowering your fps - 120, 100, 80 etc. until it's stable rather than playing on 720p

I seem to have solved the issue, I run a 1080ti and a 7600k, looking at the windows event log I was running into a virtual memory error.

All you need to do is increase your max page file size to a bigger number (I set my max to 20GB which is an absurd number but the game runs stable now)

It now works at max graphics, no v sync, 144hz 1440p, and full screen

I'm going to test it as well in a couple of hours. @FiveDollarCrayon pls report if it crashes

ow do you improve that value? my computer knowledge sucks ;P 

thank you very much 🙂

can you help to explain how to do this?

I've confirmed it was Discord for me. Disabling hardware acceleration did nothing but when I turned of Discord and played with my friend using the horrible in built voice chat in origin I haven't crashed in a long long time.

So it seems we're all experiencing the same issue but from different causes.

Come back when you havent crashed for multiple days. The crashes are completely random, I though I found a fix because I didn't crash in a day and a bit. Then the crashes started again, even worse than usual.

@Oniix176 hey hey lookie here 5 games no crashes. You might just done did my day.

I can play multiple games in a row (On all low settings) without crashes but the moment I open any other programs it crashes. Sometimes with a memory error, sometimes just outright closes. I just want to know if it's my hardware or they're game. I don't want to keep using my PC if something is faulty.... Gahhh

Hey everyone,

Thanks for all the information and trying to solve the issues you had so far, it helps us a lot. While are looking into this issue can you upload a dxdiag it will help us a lot to see what drivers and hardware you are using. 

How to do Dxdiag:

Thank you!

Here's a dxdiag. I know the drivers aren't updated, the newest ones don't help so I rerolled to really old ones.
