    Ya i'm having the same problem it seem to be related to nvidia idk maybe there most recent driver update doesn't agree with ESO. Wouldn't be surprised it wouldn't be the first time nvidia software *** everything up.

    Maybe, but I've rolled my drivers back several months, to the drivers I was using the last time I was able to play ESO, and I still experience the crashing.

    Well it got to be something with it then sense i rolled mine back to 358.91 and it works now. try using a more recent version i have had problems using really old versions of the driver to. I do have to say nvidia has the worst drivers i found my self down grading, and upgrading 7 times a week just to play different games.

    personal if i wasn't so cheap i would just go buy a new card and get a driver that actual good, but sadly i'm to cheap to spent a dollar on a cup of coffee with my employee discount.

    I'll give that driver version a shot. But I'm not very hopeful at this point. I doubt this is a "Blame Nvidia" situation though, because literally the only thing that doesn't work is ESO. Would be nice if someone from ESO could actually get back to me, but it's been days since the last time they replied with some generic stuff, and told me that they'd have someone contact me about the issue.

    I'll report back if this driver works or not.

    EDIT: The game "Appears" to work fine with Nvidia driver 358.91. I cannot say for sure, as I have only had time to play the game for about 2 hours since rolling back the drivers, but so far so good.

    Perhaps someone needs to contact Nvidia, and have this issue resolved.

    Well I just tried that driver roll back and the same thing happend played for 30 secs and my graphics driver failed and recovered which in turn made the screen freeze and but the game still played I just could see aything because it was frozen. The support hasn't gotten back to me for more then a few days now and none of the suggestion they have given worked.. :( I mean there has to be a way right....?
    Just have fun, Life is way to short otherwise!!

    Same problem. Crashing like crazy. It's crashed when Im teleporting, it's crashed when I've gone through a door, it's crashed when I click on an NPC, it's crashed when I click "good bye" in a quest dialog, it's crashed when Im just standing in a city, it's crashed when Im just standing in a field, it's crashed when I try to load my character *sighs*

    If I didn't like this game so much, I would have moved on a long time ago, this nonsense is utterly ridiculous. Apparently Zeny has missed a show stopping bug, and recently re-introduced it. I had these HORRIBLE crashes months ago, and I thought they were a thing of the past...all the frustration, all the urges to throw my PC out the window, it's just not right.

    Seriously, it's very disheartening for this to start all over again. Just like before, I have tried every possible thing on my end to stop the crashing, all for naught. Considering ESO was working fine for months and then without me changing 1 thing on my PC, except an ESO update, then this mess all started again. The source of the problem is no mystery.

    PS: @ZOS_GinaBruno
    FUNCOM is for sale, perhaps Zenimax can pick up that talented game software company for a song, then get one of their astute programmers to resolve these show stopping bugs once and for all. Hey, cant hurt to ask :)

    This, btw. I played Age of Conan into the dirt, and I still return to The Secret World now and again when I'm not in ESO or Witcher III.

    I played both as well. It's sad to see such talented guys having so much trouble now. Would be AWESOME if Zenimax would adapt some of the dungeon mechanics from TSW. They are definitely top notch Developers, but when it came to marketing, not so much.

    These days its Witcher 3 on the PS4, and ESO on my PC (when it's not crashing).

    *I'm here typing this because ESO crashed again...

    Maybe instead of giving away 1 million they should have hired 4-5 competent programmers.
    The numbers thing is always going to be there, but it’s more down to player skill and there are ways through ability choice to configure a group to be stronger vs. large groups of people. - BRAIN WHEELER - 2012 - LOL

    NO offence to any here


    We all are having the same issue and seem like we are still at step

    1. How to stop this crash,no?
    This started for me last week on July 3. 2016
    I been here for two years and only time I seen this was when they opened the server. Took some days to enter
    hours on high speed and purchasing the game 3 yrs before release.
    Try to explain in simpler terms to others who dnt under stand this "shuting down certian processors in the cpu"
    Just frustrated guys and gals

    This is new.Until they fix it.It want wrk.
    My theory
