Crashing early in the game, can't pinpoint error

Sneakk · 2023-09-17T21:01:20+00:00

You already know me mr. Andrew (probably to your own dismay by now :p), so I guess you know what's up. You asked me to upload the "dxdiag.txt , the game txt and log files like before, and I suppose a Speccy output too." I attached the dxdiag, but did not understand what EXACTLY game txt and log files should be, so I decided to upload all of them. There was one eventviewer error right around the time of the crash, but it doesn't "SEEM" to be corresponding to the crash, nevertheless, I decided to upload it (and include a picture of the eventviewer's crashes at the time as well). I also did not know what exactly in speccy you wanted, so I provided individual screenshots of the summary, CPU, GPU and RAM. Some additional notes and observations: The crash uploader fails to upload the crashes on both CK3 and Victoria 3. Disabling a little over half the cores (13 to 32), stops Crusader Kings 3 from crashing, and produces instead freezes that are only somewhat inconvenient, causing the game to also be somewhat playable. However, disabling half of them or less (16 to 32 for example), DOES cause CK3 to crash either way. I have tried to see and isolate if there is any particular core that could be defective by disabling each one of them individually and letting the game run (this took well over 30+ tries), but no matter what, the game would crash. Either multiple cores are an issue or none of them are and the issue lies elsewhere perhaps? Since our last troubleshooting in July, I have replaced my 16GB RAM stick (yes, singular) with 4 8GB ones for a total of 32GB. This turned out to be a good idea as the single RAM stick proved to be defective and was causing all sorts of issues right around the time we stopped troubleshooting. I still however have crashing issues, and in terms of CK3 and vicky3, it did not seem to have helped fix anything One last thing. While I don't really have any evidence to prove it, I suspect that my CPU is the problem maker here. I have contacted the tech shop that helped assemble my pc (unfortunately I do not have the time to learn how to service my computer myself as I'm VERY paranoid I'll break something in the process). From this same tech shop I have acquired the CPU and have a warranty on it. I have contacted them to take a look and see if anything is wrong with it on Wednesday, yet I would like your opinion as well: do you think the issue is with the CPU or do you suspect some other part? Should I tell them to keep in check for something specific?

Hi! Our programmer looked into the CTD and it appears to be a new one, so I'll add it to our database with all collected information!
Limiting threads used is the correct move here until the issue is fixed.
