Hard crashing PC locks up
" It works. Thank you! |

" What type of system are you on? Do you have SMT enabled and are you on 24h2? It would be wild if this fixed the issue since it would point to memory isolation and Microsoft's use of virtual machines for security as being at least partially responsible for the crash. I should add that I think GGG is doing something really funky while loading zones since I can run prime95 with large FFTs all day long without a crash and I've yet to experience a similar crash in any other game. Still, MS is obviously playing a part in this issue as well based on the crash being far less prevalent < 24h2 builds and there are even reports that narrow it down to a specific patch in 24h2. I will also again reiterate the importance of this getting resolved. I have a strong suspicion that this bug could push hardware to the breaking point; this is especially true with how a lot of the AMD overclocks work by setting the PBO scalar to 10x Hopefully someone can test this with voltage probes assuming the headers exist on some boards.

" r7 3700x, SMT On, PBO Off, W11 24H2. For me crashes started after update to 24H2, so something wrong with root scheduler in this update. |

Hello,
Hard crash and freeze for me too at loading map , my config is 11600K , RTX 4070 , 32 giga corsair and poe install in NVME |

" We will never know the exact reason unless GGG comes out and explains it but the main reason this crash happens is that PoE2 is trying to do something Windows does not allow it to do, and during this process PoE2 throws a fit, and this results in the system being choked out of resources it needs to sustain running itself. The PoEUncrasher actually works by gently and extremely swiftly guiding the "untangling" process when it detects the initial "tantrum" from PoE2. I am not sure if continue playing the game by using PoEUncrasher is 100% safe, it seems like it is, but we can never know fully until we see the long term effects. What I fear, although not really substantiated, is that allowing PoE2 to run in this manner might be shortening CPU's component lifespan. Furthermore, I ask anyone who sees this message to please give a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam. I cannot send/reply to direct messages because my in-game character has not finished Act 1. What to do: 1)Write a short review about the hard crashes in notepad. 2)Copy and paste it to steam reviews, put up a negative review. 3)Copy and paste it to steam discussions, put it up there.

I've tried just about every suggestion on here with mixed results. The PoEUnCrasher worked the best but the game became very laggy/sluggish after it *adjusted* the CPUs a few times due to unresponsiveness.
In the end, I just reverted to Windows 11 23H2 and everything works fine again. No more hard crashes. When I see a real fix from GG, then I'll upgrade Windows back to 24H2. |

" Where are you guys getting 23H2? Windows just installs 24H2 directly for me. |
|
" For me, I went to Windows Update and selected "Go Back to previous version". |
|
" Trying this out, now. Will update if/when I crash. Weird side note, the game seems to be using less memory after making this change. Could just be a placebo. (this is for POE1) Последняя редакция: DomzyPrivs#5120. Время: 21 дек. 2024 г., 17:26:06

I uninstalled the GPU drivers using DDU and reinstalled them without connecting to the internet.
Added all folders related to the game to Windows Defender exclusions. Disabled core isolation. Reinstalled the game. Ran PoEUncrasher. Switched from DX12 to Vulkan. Played for 6 hours without a single freeze; everything worked perfectly. Let’s see how it goes moving forward—honestly, I’m not sure which of the steps actually did the trick! 😊 |
