Hi
Welcome to Microsoft community.
The error messages you're encountering, "The instruction at 0x%p referenced memory at 0x%p. The memory could not be %s" along with "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION," indicate memory access violations, which can be due to either software or hardware issues. Here's a breakdown of potential causes and steps to further diagnose and possibly resolve the problem:
- Exception Code c0000005: This is typically an access violation, meaning the program tried to access memory it's not allowed to access or memory that does not exist.
- Memory Access Issues in Multiple Games: The fact that you're seeing similar errors in both Valorant and Dead by Daylight suggests a common underlying problem, possibly not related to the games themselves but rather to your system.
You've done a commendable amount of troubleshooting. Further Diagnostic Steps:
- Stress Testing:
- CPU and GPU Stress Tests: Use tools to check if either is unstable under load, which might not show in your previous tests.
- Memory Testing:
- Although you've tested RAM separately, consider using a more thorough tool for an extended period (overnight if possible) to catch any intermittent issues.
- Power Supply Check:
- An unstable or insufficient power supply can lead to crashes. If possible, test with another known good PSU or monitor your PSU's performance under load.
- Driver Conflicts:
- Even with updated drivers, conflicts can occur. Try rolling back to previous driver versions or using a tool like DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) for a clean driver install.
- System Overclocks:
- If any component is overclocked, try setting everything back to default speeds to see if stability improves.
- Check for Overheating:
- Use software to check if components are overheating, which can cause crashes.
- Compatibility Issues:
- Ensure all hardware components are compatible with each other and with your version of Windows.
- Professional Diagnosis:
- If you're still at a loss, consider taking your PC to a professional for hardware diagnostics, especially focusing on the motherboard and CPU.
Given the extensive troubleshooting you've already done, if these additional steps don't reveal a clear issue, it might be a rare hardware fault like a failing motherboard or CPU that might not show up in typical tests.
The fact that you're the only one reporting this specific issue on these game forums does suggest it could be isolated to your PC configuration or environment. If all else fails, consider a clean install of Windows if the issue persists after checking hardware integrity.
