GAME CRASHING EVERY 5 MINS

Deorro

I have been trying to be patient this whole day: Extended patch day, I can handle that. Waiting for the patch to download, no problem. After the patch installed, everytime I tried to run the game, insta-crash before I can even get to the login screen...meh, ok whatever. Run repair on client, forced to download and install the patch again, sure that's cool. Finally get the game going! Awesome.....NOT!

Get in game, can't stay in game without the damn client crashing every 5 mins or when I use an ability. Been going through this for the past 6 hours now and have been doing everything I can possibly think of. Reinstalled nVidia Drivers, run more repairs via the launcher, removed all addons, blah blah blah. Needless to say I am on my last nerve. I have an i7 4770K processor with a GeForce GTX 780 video card, I have no problems playing ANY game at ULTRA/MAX settings. For some reason, your client has SERIOUS issues. When are your developers gonna figure out how to make a stable game/client? This game is making my beast machine feel so inferior. I have been a strong supporter of this game since day 1 but I am almost bout to say enough is enough. With every patch you guys release, you break MORE things within the game. Is anyone else having these issues? Cause the people that I have spoken to in my guild (when I was able to stay on for at least 5 mins before crashing) told me they haven't crashed at all. What gives?

    My screen goes black and I get a message on my system tray that says something about my nVidia display drivers have stopped working, is anyone else getting this? Or am I the luckiest ESO player in NA?

    There are a couple of people on Reddit who are having problems as well as a couple on this forum that are having Fatal Error 15 or the launcher not launching. Could be relevant to your issue but not sure. Bump to get this noticed or responded to.

    Normally the Nvidia graphics driver crashing is due to card overheating.
  • KillingChaos7
    No it is not the driver its got to be software extensions added in the patch, prior to the june 24th patch to ESO he was not experiencing any issues. now all of a sudden with patch he cannot stay in game more than 5minutes b4 a crash, he has tried other games successfully (ruling out video card issues) seems to be an issue on Zenimax's end, and skimming forums more and more issues are coming up!!!!!!

    If you are using the nvidia card and getting this problem, try rt clicking the launcher, select "run with graphics processor" then "high-performance nvidia processor". This has all but fix my crashing problem.

    The little launcher icon on your desk top that you use to start the game.

    Never had a glitch since launch. Running everything on high. Now I see a drop in fps and I get a crash every 10 minutes too.
    I don't have the patience to spend all night fiddling under the hood. If the game doesn't work -I'll move on. Shame , as it was good!
