Right click on ck3.exe , properties, compatibility. Tick "disable fullScreen optimisations" untick every other box in that dialog, Apply and exit.
Then in the launcher Game Settings menu, select fullScreen display mode, Vsync off, cap refresh rate at 60.

If those don't help:
DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.
IF dxdiag.txt fails to attach here, rename it to dxdiag.log , or zip it up.

Please attach here your Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3/pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log , exceptions.txt

thanks for the help i tried what you suggested and it still crashed after a couple years. i also can not find an exceptions.txt file and the system.log is empty

You almost certainly the CPU/bios hardware issue discussed here:
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...ration-intel-processors.1591821/post-29305331

Your bios appears to be years old, please check for an updated bios. Then please implement the “Intel Default” option in it, if present.

Good luck!

This may have some fixes. not 100% fool proof but it may have the fixes that maybe relevant. I am trying to make a mega thread for Paradox so they know this is a massive issue and for some reason haven't made a mega thread (because logic)

MEGA THREAD - Urgent request for Paradox Dev team - DO NOT RELEASE ANYMORE DLC OR PATCHES UNLESS IT HAS THIS INCLUDED

Fix the massive memory leak with or related to your game Crusader Kings 3. It's all well and good getting players to buy more DLC but if the game doesn't work as intended for majority of players your just slowly killing the community. you...
