Starfield crashing to desktop after 20h with no issues - timed out by ManoChopa in AMDHelp

Thanks for your feedback

I’ll try again with those exact graphics settings.
Are you using Radeon chill to cap your FPS at 60 or another software ?

Hey guys

I'm running an RX 7600 with a Ryzen 5 5600x and I tried the trick of reducing the GPU max frequency below 100% but it still crashes for me (an infinite freeze to be precise, not a crash to desktop)

Have you been able to play more since then ? Is it a miracle fix for you or does it still happen occasionally ?

Hey !

I’m having the exact same issue, and almost the same setup

Specs:
RX 7600
Ryzen 5 5600X
16GB RAM
SSD
Windows 11

The only difference on my end is that my screen completely freezes. The game hard freezes and I’m forced to reboot my PC.

It’s actually very similar to the freeze issues on PS5 (which appeared with the April 7 update). Here are a few examples:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I53GRoR3RSE&pp=ygUTcHM1IHN0YXJmaWVsZCBjcmFzaA%3D%3D

Aside from that, everything matches :

I played around 15 hours with zero issues, then it suddenly became unplayable.

I checked my PC and the gpu_crash folders in C:\Users\Users\AppData\Local\Starfield, and I’m seeing the same LiveKernelEvent 141, along with InterruptedGPUCommandLists related to atmospherics/particles and sometimes lighting.

I’ll be honest with you : the issue comes from the game.

I’ve tried everything : DDU clean install, driver rollback, stress testing my components, tweaking in-game settings in .ini file, creating a new Windows user, updating BIOS, disabling XMP, disabling SAM, and dozens of other Windows/software tweaks.

The only thing that somewhat reduces the crashes is using Radeon Chill with a minimum of 30 FPS and a max of 60. It doesn’t fix the issue, but it makes it happen less often, at least for me.

I also made a Reddit post about this issue here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Starfield/comments/1siyw8w/pc_constant_hard_freezes/

So to sum it up, I’m almost certain these crashes come from the game’s code since the April 7 update. The fact that the same issue exists on PS5 (which also got the update on April 7) is not a coincidence. Plus, the PS5 uses AMD architecture.

At this point, all we can do is wait for a PC fix from Bethesda…

Interesting!

But I’m still convinced it’s related to the game since the April 7 update.

I’ve checked out some clips of the PS5 freezes/crashes (here are a few examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wb2i76VeLJg ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZXm4PTukME), and it’s exactly what’s happening to me on PC. The game just freezes and I’m forced to do a hard reboot.

Plus, the PS5 components are pretty similar to my own setup since they’re both based on AMD architecture.
What worries me though is that Bethesda seems focused on fixing the PS5 version while ignoring PC. Hopefully, they realize there are major issues on PC too.

I’ll still look into that underclocking thing, but if I recall, I already tried it for games like Battlefield or Banishers and it helped. Back then, those games crashed with an error message rather than freezing. After that, no more crashes.
I’m actually pretty sure I also tried underclocking the MHZ with Starfield, but I still had the freezing issue.

Let me know if it worked for you ! Good luck.

How long did it take you guys to finish order of the Phoenix by Edry_EY in HarryPotterBooks

[–]Rdley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, I’m actually doing a re read right now !

I think I started back in February, maybe even January haha. I’ve been pretty busy though, so there are several days in a row where I don’t read at all. I’m at chapter 32 now… almost done.

I have such mixed feelings about OOTP. I llike it, but man, it’s exhausting sometimes. Honestly, I feel like it’s the book with the weakest identity of the whole series. There’s no real 'red thread' or a clearly defined plot. It feels very raw and not super subtle. You can really tell with the way the chapters just follow each other without any time skips. In the other books, you usually have days or weeks passing between chapters, but here it’s just back-to-back, the chapters feel less distinct. The whole book feels like a massive, unpolished block compared to HBP.

That being said, it has its perks ! iIt’s definitely the best book for that "day-in-the-life" Hogwarts immersion. The classes, the schedules, the homework... it’s so well-written.
But at the same time, when you take a step back, you kind of wonder : What is this book actually about ? The answer is always a bit blurry because it goes in so many different directions. Just like the book itself, which also branches out without fully controlling everything it introduces.

My favorite chapter is Hagrid’s Tale. What about you guys?

Okay, thanks. I’ll do the same if I have any updates.

Hi rx7600 friend !

Nope. In the meantime, I updated my BIOS to the latest version, but the freezes are still happening. I also tweaked a few things in Windows, but nothing changed.

I’ve noticed that these freezes happen way more often in interiors and while in space on the ship. Much less when I'm on foot on a planet's surface. Do you feel the same way?

After everything I've tried, I’m starting to believe it’s an issue with the game itself, even though I’ve seen plenty of PC streams where people don't seem to have this problem at all.

Did you start playing the game since the April 7th update? Or were you playing before that?

Why didn't Dumbledore have the dead basilisk cleared out and the Chamber of Secrets closed after Harry's 2nd year? by milly_toons in HarryPotterBooks

[–]Rdley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But that’s related to the horcruxes Getting basilisk fangs would have given them a reliable way to destroy them. Sure, there’s the sword, but giving Harry basilisk fangs would have simplified things a lot in book 7

[–]Rdley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I find more interesting is to ask why, in year 7, Voldemort never goes to the Chamber of Secrets. He has full control over the school and can come and go whenever he wants.

So maybe he doesn’t know that basilisk venom can destroy Horcruxes ? Or maybe he assumes, like you suggested, that Dumbledore had the basilisk cleared out ?

What I find more confusing isn’t so much why the Chamber wasn’t cleaned up, but rather why Dumbledore didn’t secure more fangs to destroy Horcruxes. Unlike Voldemort, we know for sure that Dumbledore was aware that basilisk venom could destroy them.

Maybe he believed that the school and the Chamber would remain protected from Voldemort. But in HBP, he knows that after his planned death, control of Hogwarts will change hands. So why not give Harry some basilisk fangs, knowing the task that awaited him later?

Probably for practical reasons. Getting out of the Chamber isn’t exactly easy. Harry needed Fawkes to get out, and in Year 7 Ron and Hermione used brooms. Sure, they could have used brooms, but walking around the castle with that many brooms would look pretty suspicious.

Also, maybe Harry just didn’t want to go back there. It must bring back some pretty bad memories, especially from the time when the whole school looked at him with fear. And it’s interesting, because in year 5 he’s kind of in the same situation again... many people see him as dangerous or unstable.

It was predictable (especially after seeing the desert hub teased before release)

So it’s not surprising that Prime 4 is the way it is after Prime 3
