I'm not at my computer right now, so I'll have to take any advice later, but I keep having a persistent issue while playing, thats causing my computer to reset every few minutes while I'm playing the game. I've checked other sources, and apparently this is a unique issue. unfortunately I'm not very good with computers, so if anyone could offer some advice/possible solutions, I would greatly appreciate it.

also, no mods installed (yet)

does this happen with vanilla

#

also do you mean your pc locks up completely

hazy lance Jan 7, 2025, 9:52 AM

#

With vanilla, yes

honest wave Jan 7, 2025, 9:52 AM

#

this is probably a graphics driver issue

#

honest wave also do you mean your pc locks up completely

I mean my computer completely turns off and back on, so I think yes

#

honest wave this is probably a graphics driver issue

okie! Someone in #gameplay_help said that it might be a GPU issue, so this does track

#

I appreciate the assistance

do you have the game on steam? try switching to fna

To switch to the version of Celeste using the FNA framework, go to your Steam properties for Celeste and switch to the opengl beta.
If you have Everest, you will need to reinstall it after doing this.

#

I do have it on steam

honest wave Jan 7, 2025, 9:55 AM

#

if it still happens on fna then it's very likely a gpu driver crash

hazy lance Jan 7, 2025, 9:55 AM

#

I see. I'll try this when I get off work

honest wave Jan 7, 2025, 9:56 AM

#

in which case you should update your gpu drivers - you can find them on the website of your gpu's vendor
-# windows driver updates are an exercise in futility

hazy lance Jan 7, 2025, 9:56 AM

#

I see.

#

Once again, I appreciate this help

its kinda what i do snip_embarrassed

hazy lance Jan 7, 2025, 9:57 AM

#

I'm uh... Not the best (I'm closer to the worst) with computers and stuff

honest wave Jan 7, 2025, 9:57 AM

#

yeah and that's why i'm here

hazy lance Jan 7, 2025, 9:57 AM

#

I know where the power button is, and that's the extent of my knowledge 😭 you are a lifesaver

honest wave Jan 7, 2025, 9:57 AM

#

at least you're cooperative because there's plenty of people who are tougher to work with

hazy lance Jan 7, 2025, 11:27 AM

#

So uh... I tried fna, and switched to the opengl beta. It still crashed partway, so I went to the Nvidia website to see if I could update my drivers.

#

I uh... I'm extremely embarrassed to say this, but I do not even know how to find what drivers I have currently.

hazy lance Jan 7, 2025, 11:55 AM

#

After following some YouTube tutorials, I updated my driver and I'm now testing to see if the game will work now.

#

...it failed :<

#

The only thing left I can imagine is to check my cooling paste and get it cleaned, but I already had intentions to do that anyway

honest wave Jan 7, 2025, 12:17 PM

#

that shouldn't really be a concern unless you're really overheating

hazy lance Jan 8, 2025, 6:50 PM

#

I'm a day late, but I recently learned that my computer will consistently crash, when I'm not playing any game, so this leads me to believe it's not a problem with Celeste, and rather a problem with my computer.
The odd part is, it doesn't crash while I'm playing any other games bruheline

honest wave Jan 8, 2025, 6:50 PM

#

yeah this sounds like a hardware problem
