Re: Plants vs Zombies has stopped working

For some reason PtrSc key is not taking a screenshot of PvZ but the message says 

"Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare™ has stopped working"

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.

Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is

available.

Close program

That's what it says.

    Always had this, I've only been playing for a few hours in total but since I started i've been getting this message, sometimes I can play an entire Welcome Mat match but by the time I get to the second match I get kicked out. Sometimes it will crash seconds after the first game starts.

    I don't have much to add... it's crazy as hell at work today.

    HD 6520G   I have this APU... wow... that is all I have to say.  I OC'd the living daylights out of it and it's still 'wow' (literally core3 is like dead now lol) ...  I hated this computer lol and it had a dedicated 7670m as well.

    Even if my brain wasn't burnt out right now.. I'd probably have little advice to give on this issue.

    If you somehow have a dedicated GPU in there (like mine has a 7670m)... disable Hybrid Crossfire.  it's a bad joke and a half with that APU.

    Shot in the dark I'd completely wipe the drivers, aggressively... since you don't know much about computers... You might not want to do this... BSOD on a restart is a defnite possibility... but it's 100% correctable.

     If you aren't used to Safe Mode or scared of BSOD don't do it.

    Uninstall your AMD/ATiDrivers from Control Panel (all)
    Restart into Safe Mode
    Run DriverSweeper
    Restart
    Install Latest Drivers

    If you have a BSOD on restart. Go back to Safe Mode. Go to System->Device Manager->Display Adapters Remove them, restart.

    Safe Mode /w Networking will save the day
