Greetings , 

I was playing ME3 today and my pc crashed completly after a vanguard charge( Twice). 

Both times upon checking the error log I got : Kernel Error 41. 

( I also got a PSU charge warning after booting it up after the first one, I manually turned it off and then on with the power button behind it tho)

Question is, Could it be the game doing this ? 

Or does it seem more like a PSU issue ? 

System Spec:

Win8

p8z77 Mobo

I7 3770

HD7950 Sapphire Vapox-X

128 SSD M4

2tb Seagate 

CORSAIR Enthusiast Series CMPSU-550VX

 

Any ideas would be awesome

Hi demiansepticrux,

I think that you should visit the following site: http://forum.ea.com and click on ORIGIN ( right hand side) and once again under the sub category: Origin.

That site has a more up to date database on issues affecting the Origin Client.

You also should speak with a game advisor and for that you can go to https://help.ea.com and click on CONTACT US.

On a side note...I may be incorrect, but I do not think ME 3 plays nice with Windows 8. The article I placed below gives info on Windows 7/ Vista /8 Troubleshooting. Give it a glance if you wish...:robothappy:

Thanks for posting and good luck to you.

HOW TO CREATE A NEW ADMIN ACCOUNT

UPDATED:  5/21/2013

Creating a new administrator account is a useful step if you're experiencing issues launching or installing games, or if your games crash or freeze during play.

A new administrator account creates a new copy of the registry, making registry troubleshooting steps such as registry "cleaning" and manual uninstallation unnecessary.

Windows 8

1. Navigate to the Control Panel.
2. Select "User Accounts".
3. Select "Manage User Accounts".

• Be advised: Non-administrators will need to provide admin credentials here.

1. Click the "Add" button.
2. Enter a name for the account and click the "Next" button.
3. Select "Administrator".
4. Click the "Finish" button.

Windows 7

1. Click the Start button, then select the Control Panel.
2. Select "User Accounts".
3. Select "Manage User Accounts".

• Be advised: Non-administrators will need to provide admin credentials here.

1. Click the "Add" button.
2. Enter a name for the account and click the "Next" button.
3. Select "Administrator".
4. Click the "Finish" button.

Windows Vista

Just to give "the other side"; I've been playing ME1/ME2/ME3 on Win8 Pro/64-bit for over a year now (including the "Consumer Preview".)

Have had the most trouble with ME1 (duh), and ME2 also goes CtD with annoying frequency.  Have had NONE of those issues with ME3. 😕mileywink:
