    It was to be feared that this would happen. 
    The problem is that we slowly running out of options here because we can't pinpoint a specific problem. 

    The game is running for a good amount of time, so it is most probably not a game related or at least not only game related problem.
    Hard crashes like this are almost always at least partly hardware/driver related. 
    The fact that you don't get a BSOD is also pointing in this direction. 

    What kind of power supply do you use? (brand and model.)

    Lets have one addition test:

    1. Create a new Windows user account (Administrator) don't use local special characters, use only  Characters from the ASCII table
    2. Reboot > Log in to the new user account.
    3. Test the game. 




  • Honestly, I highly recommend against purchasing this game to anyone reading this. I can’t even give an opinion on the game because it’s totally unplayable. I have no recourse. No fix is working and I have thrown away $90. I feel massive regret for purchasing this game.

  • holger1405Sorry it took me a minute to create this thread; I’ve got a busy life right now. But there were no crash dumps for veilguard in the folder, so I’m working on creating one using the command prompt you gave. But will it record anything if the whole system is crashing?
