GPU drivers crash after the patch

www.spideypeb18_ESO
Hello everyone,

after the 1.12 patch, everytime I boot the game, my GPU drivers crash, my screen gets all glitched up and I need to manually reset my pc.

Now I run on a AMD Radeon HD 7770 Ghz ed. with a quad core I5 CPU on 3.1 ghz (not overclocked)

I never have problems while gaming and Wolfenstein the new order runs as smooth as a baby's bottom on ultra.

I first thought it could be my GPU breaking down, but after playing Wolfenstein all evening yesterday, I think I can rule that out.

Any help would be appreciated.

    Are you running Full Screen or Windowed Full Screen? I had issues with my GPU using Full Screen (screen artifacts, freezing, black screen, GPU crashing) but have been running just fine back in Windowed Full Screen.
    The only negative experience in ESO is those that make it negative.

    It is almost impossible to get to the settings. I can get it to log in, but during the loading screen it starts showing artifacts and before I can do anything it becomes so bad I can't even see anything just artifacts and in lack of a better word snow.

    Have you guys tried deleting the shadercache.cooked and usersettings.txt files?

    I played yesterday for 2-3 hours and didn't have any issues, though I'm not sure if it was thanks to deleting those files or the latest patch. Normally my screen would go haywire after about an hour's play after the crag patch.

    Doesn't removing those files trigger a repair from the launcher?

    Not in my case. They are re-created when you run the game.

    Also, to be safe, you can c&p the old files somewhere else as backup in case something goes wrong.
