SOLUTION THAT HELPED ME.
So I had the exact same issue everyone is reporting here, spent most of the day doing everything reinstalling, re-install drivers, reinstall DX, nothing worked, until I did a deeper dive into event viewer and searching the specific issue causing the crashes, in my case this is what was the issue:
Windows Paging size was to little,
Do the following and let me know if it helps you:
- Search on your PC for "View advanced system settings".
- Go to Performance -> Settings.
- Go to Advanced.
- You will see Virtual Memory.
- Click change, then select "Custom Size" on your C drive, make sure you select your C drive (Your hard drive with OS installed)
- Add a value 1.5 times more than your systems memory, in my case I have 16GB of RAM, so I put 24000 in the Initial size and on the maximum size you can just put 100mb more, so for me, this value is 24100.
- Reboot your device.
(Keep in mind the higher the paging size, the more storage is occupied from your C-drive)
To be clear:
Initial size - 24000
Maximum size - 24100.
Hope this helps at least some of you, I been able to play without interruptions, and before I struggled to even pass the character creation.
About how much storage is left available on your C drive for this to work for you. I really dont want to delete Bg3 lol
I have over 600GB open on my drive, but I also only had the one crash so far
Honestly not that much, i'm still trying to delete big files but right now I only have 22GB free and it runs flawlessly. If you fall in this ball park you should still be okay. (FYI im running on 128GB SSD for OS)
