Hi All,

Whenever I launch Apex, it generates a BSOD on my PC. The weird thing is, if I reinstall the game, it will work fine, but if I close and launch it again it will cause the bsod error. The BSOD errors are of different categories.
Also, the dump files are not being generated and I am not sure what the reason could be. I tried to perform clean installation, BIOS upgrade, Drivers update/downgrades and everything. Nothing seems to fix it. I tried to run memory test (Windows Diagnostic tool) it showed no errors with memory.
Other games, like CSGO Age of Empires 2, Pubg work fine without any issues.

I am not sure what kind of problem I am having, whether a windows issue. This issue started when I was using windows 11. I also downgraded to Windows 10 but it still did not fix it.

Thanks for your help.
 
Let's get some more information:

Please download and run speccy.

Once you have ran speccy, follow the instructions to upload a snapshot found here.

To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

  1. In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.
  2. In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.
  3. Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot dialog box. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

Please look in the computer and tell your exact model of PSU, this could cause problems especially if it is a low quality 80+ Bronze unit.
Look for the model, wattage, and efficiency rating^
 
So in my research it seems some people are having issue's Gigabyte Vision B550 D not running Apex correctly. One person suggested to update the bio's, once that was done the game ran correctly.. Just putting this out here....

Hi,

I changed the thermal paste on my GPU and performed BIOS Reset. Since then I never had any crash. Not sure out of these two which one was responsible for the issue. In my opinion it was the BIOS as I recorded temps when I was facing the issue, it was not that hot.

Thanks for your help.
