POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

Updating Bios to Latest, Checking drivers and Windows update, all latest.

Ryzen 7 9800x3D
First game after patch today.

First login -> Open Map -> Instant Crash.

Nice oneeee

At least, that shows they work on it, even if it's "potential"... Bad communication, though...

Yeah, their communication is godawful. But at least I'm happy that we finally got some info on it, here's hoping that it works.

Did your entire PC freeze or did the game just crash? This thread is about the entire PC freezing when PoE does.

Edit: Nevermind. I just realized that patch 0.1.1c won't even be out until the end of the week so this potential fix is not in the game yet.

Just freeze at the loading screen and I need to force shutdown my PC.
After that I tried to change x3d setup to disabled at my bios, tried to run the game, and just freeze again at the first loading screen (not even able to see login screen).

Cannot play the game anymore after I bought Ryzen 7 9800x3D. Feel so sadddd

The loading multithread crash is the same crash that freezes pc's the difference is, sometimes it doesn't lock the pc up. And if you have some cores off, it doesn't crash as hard or lock up the pc.

I have a 7950x3d so the game only uses the 3d vcache cores. So i've only had the PC lock up twice, but it is definitely the same crash, the cpu takes off in usage, the window locks up, sometimes it crashes the whole pc, but having a dual CCD processor means I always have free cores. 9800x3d/14900k/7800x3d/5700x all these pc's tend to have issues.

Newer Intel users could intentionally take affinity off their E-cores and probably have similar results to me... a program like process lasso can make this automatic - but as i am using AMD, my alternate cores are performance cores, so i'm not certain Intel users wouldn't lock up with E-cores off.

disable 2 cores, OR disable multithreading,

It won't crash with multithreading off, but can drop into 30fps territory in cities and busy areas - some users turn it off to zone, and then turn it back on.

disabling 2 cores (turning the affinity off) makes it less likely to lock the whole pc up.

Cachyos Is the answer for now

5 days of heavy playtime since latest windows 11 patch zero freezes, just 1 crash to desktop which was related to weapon swap bug.

Done 50+ maps, multiple cidatels and trials of chaos.

Was defo a windows problem for me but now seems resolved
