I'm having trouble getting Apex to run without crashing my computer, at seemingly random times the game will crash and my computer will hang. Often sounds will stop playing or gun textures won't load shortly before the crash. This will happen anywhere from the first game, to not at all during a session, always while in-game though. Upon restarting my PC I have an error in event viewer at the time of crash, below is the error, as well as in screenshots:

 

Level: Error

So far I have tried the following:
 
-Reinstall Apex
-Reinstall Windows from a USB
-Uninstall video drivers via DDU in safe mode and then reinstall
-Check for memory issues
-Check for system file errors after windows reinstall
-Set the Apex folder as a protected folder in Windows Security
-Try moving video card from first 16x slot to 2nd 16x slot
 
My BIOS is up to date.

I figured out the problem, it was a bad driver for a keyboard I had plugged in.

Hey, @Kleptse Can you try to do a clean boot to see if there any programs messing with APEX and turn off any overlay programs for example Discord or Nvidia experience.

 

Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

 

Let me know if this works or not for you. Standard smile

Hi @EA_Atic, I've attached the Dxdiag to this message, as well as clean booted my PC, same issue is still happening.

How did you figure it out? I'm having the same error when playing FIFA. Tried everything you tried. Curious about this driver thing. Only drivers I uninstalled and reinstalled were my GPU's.
