Talane Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Since the update on Tuesday I can't get into GSF...game crashes w/no warning. Anyone have an idea on a fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DakhathKilrathi Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 That's odd. They didn't patch anything on Tuesday, so there's no way that could be the cause. What version of Windows are you running and has it installed any updates recently? Do you get a specific error message? Do other things in the game cause it, or just GSF? This is likely going to be driver related, but I can't say for sure without knowing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALaggyGrunt Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Overclock? (Prime95 it-if it fails, you're looking at a reinstall) Uninvited guest? (if you want to be dead sure you got rid of it, reinstall) Bit rot? Iffy SATA cable? Running too hot?

FlavivsAetivs Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) This just happened to me and I had no problem with GSF on this PC for the past couple days. Got the pop, hit play, crash. EDIT: Started another match, crashed on the loading screen this time. No problem on my home PC, so I don't know what's happening. ~ Eudoxia Edited January 29, 2016 by FlavivsAetivs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roll them back or update them from the manufacturer's website directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlavivsAetivs Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Have no problem with any other part of the game. Going to reinstall on Monday when I have the university's good internet. My tablet uses intel graphics drivers (has no dedicated GPU it's a Windows Surface pro 3. The good one with the i7 processor, not the crappy consumer ones). Never had this problem before. ~ Eudoxia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to waste time and bandwidth with reinstalling as your first troubleshooting step, more power to you. I don't know why I even bother offering free advice anymore. The game has a repair tool. You should try that first. Since you obviously know so much about how to fix this sort of thing, I'm sure you can find out how to run it yourself.

DakhathKilrathi Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 This happens on my i5 Surface Pro 3, noticed it back in December or January. I fixed it by reverting back with the rollback button to the September Install of the GFX Drivers. However, Microsoft updated them back, and then wouldn't let me roll them back this time. This version from September 1st should probably work. I'm testing it now: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downloads/eula/25274/Intel-Iris-Iris-Pro-and-HD-Graphics-Production-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10?httpDown=https%3A%2F%2Fdownloadmirror.intel.com%2F25274%2Feng%2Fwin64_15407.4279.zip EDIT: Fixed problem for me. ~ Eudoxia Found this while trying to help someone else with the same problem. Guess that reinstall totally did the trick, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danalon Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I recommed switching from bitraider streaming launcher to the "normal" launcher, if you didn't do that already. You will have to redownload the entire game but in my experience this fixes a lot of crash bugs. I remember some months ago, when only people with disabled bitraider launcher were able to log in and the fleet was almost empty during prime time.
