Hi there eso seems to be filling up my ram memory to the point where windows force closes my game telling me there is not enough memory this happen several times so i i watched my resource monitor to find out how much memory was used before it crashed that was around 6.8-7 gigs. Even the crash reporter crashed so i was unable to send a report each time.
my pc specs are as follows
amd fx 4300
amd radeon HD 6970
8gigs of ram
windows 7
is there anyone who also has this issue or anyone who can help me solve it

    Is your Windows 7 OS a 32 bit version? If so, you might find this topic helpful:-

    Ugh sounds like one of the nasty memory leaks is back. Where were you when it happened? Does it happen in the same place? If you can repeat the memory leak, screen shot your task manager showing the usage and if you can't get a report in to them before the close, note exactly where you are and put a support ticket in through the website. Give them the time, character name, where you were located and attach your screen shot of the task manager.

    I've reported several since the beginning and that is pretty much what they need if you can't send an in game report. I haven't seen a leak this bad for a while. This is a 32 bit game so it will generally hose at 3 gigs of use on the memory.

    Yeah ESO will roll over and die at 3 gigs because it's 32 bit so if the memory use is hitting 6+, it isn't ESO or just ESO that is the problem. I've been through a lot of memory leaks with this game and know where the "roll over and die" point is for the game. :)

    I can't even stay on for more than 10 seconds. This started with the new patch..and I've gone round and round with ESO support giving me the same old run around. I'm not getting the memory error, just constant crashes..send in the crash report, crash send in the crash report..rinse and repeat!

    1. Drivers need updated: THEY are updated
    2. Stop using Add-ons. I tried this, same result.

    I think I am done with this game for awhile. I HATED, HATED this game in beta, but started hearing good things about it so I figured I would give it a second chance and loved it! Yeah well..the love is gone again. It was there for a few months...love is fleeting.
