Crashing to desktop
NFS Payback keep crashing to desktop. It cashes mostly in the game menu(TAB). What happens is that it just freezes and then i hear the windows error sound. Then i have to kill the game in taskmanager. No error message what so ever. This is after completing the last mission in the trail.
I have bought the Delux edition of the game.
This is the only game this have happend, and all my overclocks are stable and have been runnning 24/7
Tested without the overclocks, but the same thing happens there aswell.
All my drivers are up to date!
Running at max settings 1440p
UPDATE:
Seems like this error is something that i have in Mass Effect: Andromeda too. The very same crash to be exact.
Hopefully this error won't exist when the full game is released. Normaly i got a error saying that have run out of memory or something (512MB) something. Can't remember exact what is says since the error box won't show anymore.
Now it just crashes randomly while playing. If this is the case, the problem are in EA games in general. After spending hours researching the error instead of spending time playing the game itself i gave up. If they don't care to fix the error on ME:Andromeda why should they care to fix it in this title. If Payback have the same issue i will refund it.
Computer:
cpu - i7 7800X
motherboard - X299 msi tomahawk arctic
ram - corsair vengance rgb 32GB 3000 mhz
gpu - MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X
Windows 10 Pro 64bit
Think I've found a solution for Asus mobos and Nvidia cards.
Just to be sure, I clean installed Windows 10 again.
I have an Asus Ranger VII mother board and Gigabyte GTX 1080ti
Did a lot of elimination and what has worked for me now was:
- In BIOS, set "Multicore Enhancement" from Auto to Disabled.*** Multicore Enhancement sets max Turbo Boost and voltage up too all cores at the same time. Unless you need your CPU to be maxed all doing not much at all... turn this off.
- Right click desktop, click NVIDIA Control Panel, Click Manage 3D setting, scroll down to Power management mode, set to "Prefer maximum performance" and once done click Apply in the bottom right hand corner.
These settings have worked so far for me. Been able to play for hours with no crashing or exiting to desktop with no errors popping up.
Had tried:
- "Clean boot and no UAC" fix - failed
- No overclock on CPU and underclocking GPU - failed
- Lowering resolution and graphics setting - failed
I hope these settings help you out.
I've had this issue for quite some time and was really irritating me. I stumbled across a JayzTwoCents video about overlocking Pascal based graphics cards and Asus multicore enhancement, and it just clicked. I was probably drawing too much power for the CPU going full ham on all cores all the time. And was probably reaching a default power cap for the GPU regardless of using any overclocking software tweaks or not.
