Arma 3 Random Crashes
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

My game is crashing randomly around every 30 minutes or less. I've tried everything I knew and what people in some forums said. I tried:
Reinstalling, Run as Admin, compatibility mode, turn off antivira, lower graphic settings (got 60+ frames now), let steam check the game a hundred times, delete gamecache, run game on only 4 cores instead of 8.
I think this was all I tried. Nothing of this helped me, sadly.
My PC is not really bad, I think:
I7- 4770K @3,5GHz
Palit GTX760 4GB
Corsair XMS3 16GB RAM
Thermaltake Berlin 630W

It would be really nice if somebody would answer fast, because I'm getting really mad after downloading this game again twice, which costs me about 12 hours every time and trying all the stuff I did again and so on.
Thank you.

*edit*
I even tried to reinstall the Nvidia drivers. Now I have got the newest Beta drivers and they dont work, too. {F23777} {F23778} {F23779}

Hello,

we are sorry for your inconveniences. The crashdumps you sent do not show anything significant. Would it be possible to upload at least three more so we have more data to analyse?

Thank you very much.

I put some of the crashfiles from yesterday and the missing file from today in the ZIP-folder. I hope you can find something in there.
Thanks.

Hello,

thank you for the dumps. Our programming department will take a look at it.

Thank you.

So did someone find the problem or don't even they know what's wrong?

Hello,

we analysed the crashdumps. The application crashes due to an error in nvwgf2um.dll which is a part of the GeForce graphics driver. I would suggest to reinstall/update your nVidia drivers.

Thank you very much.

Well I can't update the drivers, because it's the newest one. I reinstalled them and what did I receive? Guess what, it was a crash after 30 minutes.

That problem, is not resolved anyway. It really crashes too much for playing it a little longer time. Please answer me and tell me what you need to find solutions.
Thank you.

Hello,

sadly, we cannot really do anything. I suggest you to contact your graphics card manufacturer or downgrade your graphics card drivers and wait till the newest version gets updated.

Sorry for inconveniences.

Okay, thank your for the fast answer. I did write an e-mail to the shop, where I bought my PC. I'm waiting for their answer now. The graphics card drivers are the newest Nvidia Beta Drivers. So I guess the graphic card is damaged or something similar.
Thank you for your help.

I would recommend to switch to the stable drivers (Beta can be unfinished or unpolished from my experience).

The problem about that is, that the stable drivers doesn't work either. And the game still runs longer with the beta drivers. I don't know why. I'll just wait for the PC Builders' answer.
