GW2 crashes frequently


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

since last week my game frequently crashes:-

-most of the time It happens after i mimimize gw2 and open it again (watching videos on youtube, opening other programs while gw2 is minimized). -->Chrome and Teamspeak are shut down, too (as side effect?) Discord is not affected.

-already checked the memory of my computer with the built in tool from microsoft (win10)

-game is running fine as long as i dont run any other program in the background or minimize it

-repairing gw2 didn't work

-uninstalled gw2 and reinstalled it -->still crashes

 

first part of the crash report:

Windows built in memory checker isn't very good, memtest64 is mainly check for bad ram sticks, if that's the case you'll get random restarts and blue screen of memory dump

 

one piece of info you left out... is your windows 10 64bit version or 32bit version?

a 32bit operating system can only utilise up to 3.5GB RAM no matter how much physical RAM you go in the box

with freshly logged in win 10 screen, click on search-> type in "%appdata%" -> click on "%appdata%" folder-> enter "Guild Wars 2" folder -> Delete "local.dat" file(empty trash bin).

 

play Guild Wars 2, hope that helps. If find cause let me know. My brother with a ryzen 5 1600 8gb ram is having crashing issues after a while of playing, not sure if he still uses his gtx 950.

That's what I said.

What else is there to check? RAM = memory.

That, too. I didn't think Windows 10 was available in 32-bit, but I checked and was shocked to see that it is. How you can still create a 32-bit version these days to begin with is beyond me.

it's win10 64bit

 

right now i can't access my computer until later this week (im not home) so the ram check has to wait. Gonna inform u guys what the outcome was.

Ok back from work and finally some time for gw2. I ran a memory check with mem test (like you advised) and this was the result:

http://prntscr.com/ke9dsb (don't get confused by 2% pass and 16% test. It already finished once, this is the second run.)

 

As you can see at the bottom of the picture: "Pass complete, no errors"

Support didn't respond yet

 

Not sure what i should check now

 

edit: ok tried to play again. No problems running only gw2, but asap i open other programs in the background i get a black screen in gw2. I still heared the sound of other programs (music, ts3) so i disconnected my screen and connected it again (just to see what might happen). Black screen disappeard, gw2 shut down (other programs still running, no error message)

 

send help QQ

 

-------------------------------------------------------

2nd edit: could fix the blackscreen with an older nvidia driver but now i get crash reports again:
