My game crashes, please help!
caffeinated.joy:
I took a look at your error logs and they all have the same exception errror: 0xC0000005 (-1073741819) ACCESS_VIOLATION
OK, to put simply, the access violation error comes when the processor is being instructed to access information in an area that doesn't exist, or from an area the current process doesn't have access to. This can happen for a few reasons. The first most people suggest is you don't have enough available memory to run the game but I see that's not the problem. In all the exception logs I see out of 1536 mb available you have between 992 and roughly 1000 mb free.
One of the things I hate about this error is it's so ambiguous and can apply to so many things (not enough RAM, bad RAM, bad drivers, bad cards). I'm thinking though, because you stated your graphic settings have been "lost" is it's a video issue. First thing I would try is updating your drivers. Also it wouldn't hurt to use some compressed air to blow out the dust from around your cpu fan and heatsink. Extra dust in your computer can cause the whole system to overheat, which can make things go all hiccupy.
In general, are you having any other graphic related issues with your computer?
Oh and it definitely wouldn't hurt to do a spyware scan, if you haven't already.
As gazania has mentioned, it could also be a matter of too many Downloads. I would do as suggested there and try running your game without your Downloads and see if that helps too.
Kristof:
Hm, starting the game vanilla means that totally empty, without any downloaded stuff? :confused: :rolleyes:
If I can get into the game again, I'll surely delete lots of files, I already wanted to do this, just never found the time (and the mood).
*Caffeinated.joy: thank you for the help! I had graphic problems last year, from january till june, because I got a new graphics card in june, it's ASUS AH3650 and it worked perfectly till now.
Theraven:
Then chances are it's the drivers that needs updating ;)

Yes it means running your game without any downloads. You don't have to delete them completely just yet; just move the Downloads folder to your desktop. :)
Kristof:
My Downloads folder is already moved to the Desktop.
And I'll try some other things tomorrow, for today I'm finished, here's evening already and I'm totally dead, so I'll go to bed now and tomorrow I'll try out some other things, thank you for your help, I really appreciate!
