Random crashes to desktop | no errors

Ive been having issues with poe randomly crashing to desktop with no errors. Its worth mentioning that ive had a fair amount of issues with my pc recently, and have had so ever since building it.

that being said, repairs have been done, and ive been doing things, tweaking settings etc to get it to a stable state.

after my most recent changes, things seem pretty stable, and i dont have many things crashing anymore. poe however, keeps crashing seemingly at random times. it doesnt have a pattern, it can be while generic mapping, doing maven invitations, looking at my atlas tree... theres nothing in specific that seems to trigger it.

i cant for the life of me find any crash logs for POE, and those would greatly help me in troubleshooting this issue. i cannot guarantee that its not my pc thats having issues, but crash logs certainly help me regardless of it being the game having issues or the pc having issues.

Anyone else having this issue, and have ideas of what to try?
And where are the crash logs located???

for some generic info, i have up to date drivers and OS and all that. have tried all the common basic solutions, along with trying multiple gpu drivers, using dx11 and 12 / vulkan. its a new rig, 4090 and 14th gen i9, its not dusty or old hardware. Im an IT/Tech guy, and have tried everything i can think of, other than turbo drastic things such as reinstalling windows, which i may end up doing anyway depending on how my other issues go.

i used to have the error 0xc0000005, which is an access violation, which still occurs on other programs i have issues with, tho seemingly not after my latest fix.

but yea, where are the crash logs? if i could find them, i may be able to troubleshoot the issue myself. if further info is wanted, i will happily fill in whatever is needed.

I'm having nearly the same issue, crashes in hideout, map, and town.

Like the OP I've tried everything short of reinstalling windows. And annoyingly, like OP I can find no logs nor do I receive any errors on crashing.

Even a place to start from would be appreciated.

(Also, side note: I too have a 14th gen i9, maybe some relation)

possibly, i mean i know my pc has had issues, and ive had to do loads of stuff in bios to get the pc to chill out (was hovering 90-100degrees c during any game while thermal and power throttling, tho now its down to 60-80 and only current/EDP throttling. cpus have also been replaced twice.

aside from the issues ive had, i do have a tiny feeling that getting the freshest hardware hasnt been the greatest choice in terms of compatibility. i seem to often run into issues, and i cant help but feel like some of it is simply struggling with the new tech.

wouldnt be surprised if having 14th gen intel cpus in becoming an issue for certain older apps and games, and poe is getting older at this point. not saying it wouldbt be able to run, but perhaps extra steps is needed to ensure good stability. doesnt help that all the OEM stuff along with cpu and gpus in general are jam packed and consume a lot of power, their clock speeds are slammed to the max aswell.

oh well, i cant say for certain since ive had plenty of things crash to desktop without errors. but poe is the only one i cant find logs for.

Could not find crash logs for poe, but i did end up solving my issue.

ultimately it ended up being a larger issue with my CPU that wasnt fixed. loads of more details can be found at this reddit post here where i updated on my issue and talk about all the things that made it not crash in the end.

note that this fix may work for others, especially if its a crash to desktop with no errors, but its not guaranteed. it doesnt hurt to try the fixes tho, no harm to be done and u can always undo the things u do, tho that may be unlikely to be needed.

started having the problem today too any way to solve it?

Having this same issue, game crashing to desktop when loading hideout, without errors.

Edit: DX11 works but its super laggy. DX12 and Vulkan instant crashing.
