I tried to get back into the Game today.
I only tried Mission 3 today, but after ~10 minutes it crashed with an UE4 Error Message.
I tried mutiple times but the crash keeps comming consitently.

Error Message was:

EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0xffffffffffffffff

Does an epic crash reporter window pop up?

The crash window contains an "epic id" field, which is empty.
I forgot to take a screenshot, will take one when i try again. my fuess would be something hardware related though, wow crashed with a similar error

if you get the epic window ensure you submit it through the tool. Adding some informaiton about what you were doing before the crash can also be helpful

I did another test. I disabled the RAM OC in my BIOS. After that, the game still crashed after about 10 min, but without any error message, i just get booted back to desktop.
WoW stopped crashing after the change, as fat as i can tell in my limited time.

Another update on that issue:
After disabeling xmp i looked into the windows event log after a crash to desktop without error window as described above.
Turns out, that my nvidia driver crashed somehow.
After scouering the Internet i figuered the best aproach would be:

  • booting into safe mode
  • use DDU to remove the driver
  • reinstalled the driver

That fixed the issue of the game crashing after 10 min.

I could finish a campaing mission without issues.

Sadly, as i was clicking in the result screen of the mission 3, i was booted back to Desktop and i could not find any reports of what caused that.

Did you have a specific Nvidia driver ipreviously isntalled?

Before trying the ddu aproach, i already had the latest driver installed in an attempt to fix the issues.
I cant remeber which version i used before.

My latest "problem" seems to be somehow related to an audio driver.
But if the game only crashes after a mission, then the issue is minor. Annoying but playable.
