| Topic | Why would games on my new SSD keep crashing? |
| Azp2k32 10/30/19 5:59:09 PM #14 | So there's a fresh Windows install on C, but the old installation and directories are still on E. I don't know for certain what sort of problems that would cause, but there can definitely be some jank in my experience. I'm presuming you redownloaded the games and put them on the SSD which is now C, but there are probably still old configuration files from your previous install on E. I don't know if you deleted/uninstalled the games from E, but in particular with the FFXIV issue, I wonder if for some reason it hits a point where it's maybe referencing files from the other side, even if you uninstalled it? Is there anything in particular preventing you from reformatting the E drive? --- |

| Azp2k32 10/30/19 2:43:55 PM #10 | Is this SSD replacing an old drive, or is it just being added onto the system? Have you upgraded anything else (hardware/peripherals, etc.)? I had a similar issue where not all games, but certain games like Metal Gear Rising and Saint's Row 4 refused to work just after building a new PC due to a USB adapter (Mayflash bluetooth for my Wii U Pro Controllers) which was doing literally nothing as I hadn't even installed drivers for yet, and removing the USB device made everything work. Alternately, I had similar issues when I bought a new Corsair Keyboard to upgrade my old Corsair Keyboard, and the newer more uh, "modern" stylized version of their gaming software that I had to download to make the RGB lighting work caused issues that the old version that my old keyboard used hadn't. The new software made it so that games like Dota 2 would often crash/hang on launch and not give any sort of useful error message when crashing, which I was advised generally is a graphics driver-related issue, but reinstalling those did nothing to help. Other games like Rocket League would crash too, but less reliably. I had found that I could reliably boot the games without issue and play if I launched them shortly after booting my PC, but the longer my system was up, the less chance that had of working, and the higher the chance the game client would crash, particularly if I tried to load into an actual match from the main menu. Never launching the new Corsair app (and turning it off in startup apps) fixed everything in that instance. I'd generally try unplugging any unnecessary extra USB devices, and checking your startup applications in task manager and disabling any non-essential sounding ones you can and seeing if the issue persists. --- |
