[Old Report] Dead Space Remake Freezing computer / DirectX Error / Driver Crash

Update: That did not change anything for me... Glad it worked for you @PumpDaddyKane.

It has indeed crashed again on me within 10min after i tried that trick again. But it is definitely tied to resolution. I've left it at 1080p today for 1hr just to test on the pause menu a viola! no crash, very weird. I doubt we get a fix for this

I have been getting these on and off since launch day, I'm certain it isn't tied to any specifications or settings, it seems to be an issue with shaders from what I can tell. Changing the resolution would force the shader cache to rebuild, I also noticed it would last longer when I rebooted my machine, something else that would also wipe that cache. This is going to be a problem they need to fix on their game itself, or maybe in conjunction with drivers, but I don't think the silence from the developers is doing this game any favors, especially because the only people who will deal with this * are people who love the game more than crashing every 2 hours and making it actually impossible to run impossible difficulty because I can't even make it to Chapter 4 without crashing.

Please just at least acknowledge it and give us a timeframe when I can expect to actually finish this game.

I have found a way to bide the time until a resolution is made. My Steam Deck can play this game, albeit at 15-30 fps and super low settings and resolution. Not a viable solution, especially when people's computers are so much more powerful in comparison. 

EA Devs, please fix this game

Update: Deleted the DeadSpace(2023) folder in Documents, and verified game files on Steam. The game now freezes my entire system on the warning screen. Probably because I have a saved game from my Steam Deck, and it appears that this game tries to load the game to the last save point automatically. Shame that this is happening

Update: AMD Released driver version 23.2.1 with explicit support for Dead Space Remake. I did the update, and let it factory reset everything. Now the game appears to be running okay-ish... Albeit, 13 fps on low settings. I will adjust until I'm comfortable, but this is already leagues better. Thanks, AMD!

Update 20 minutes later: Made it through almost the entire first cut scene... Then my entire computer locked up again. Swing and a miss...

Same here. AMD 7950x. Rtx 4090. I have never crashed ever with any other game.

First 2 or 3 crashes came with the DirectX error, now the game freezes before just shutting down. Once it crashed my whole system, blue screen and all.

I will say that the first day of playing the game didn't crash during a 4hr sesh. Then the next time loading up and playing it crashed about every 20-30mins, so perhaps it could be something to do with reloading the saved shaders. Anyways, game is now unplayable, crashing far too frequent.

Well, I'm glad it's not just me, but I really hope this gets fixed. Game is unplayable.

I just went out and bought a new RTX 3060 Ti and Dell 30" 4k monitor for this game, hoping that would fix the issues.

Still it freezes in the ship's cockpit that you see in the background of the main menu. At best, I can get halfway through Nicole's video message in the opening cutscene before it freezes. This is epically bad. ☹️ ☹️ ☹️

Yes, I'm playing on an RTX 4090, no undervolt, no overclock.
No problem in any game played, except dead space remake.
Getting the dxgi_error_device_hung on a 4K screen.
Tried the different solutions, nothing worked.
Any help appreciated.
