POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

"
This is unacceptable, it drives me crazy I had to reset my pc at least 20 times already. Complete PC hard crash, no response from anything, on 80% of loading screens. From character select to new areas and portals to town.

5800X - 3060Ti - 32Gb RAM - Win11 24H2

Please fix this we want to be able to play during holidays!!



Just disable multithreading before you engage with loading screens, has been working for me like a dream.
Recently started a merc Witchhunter and i've got 27 hours on it, not 1 complete PC freeze ever since i began disabling multithreading before engaging with loading screens.

Yes it's tedious and load times are longer, but at least you can play the game.

Imagine calling it a fix that you need to disable multitreading every time before loading.

That's why it's called a bandaid fix. All GGG has to do is push out a patch for both PoE 1 and PoE 2, that disables multithreading on loading screens
Just another quick confirmation that PoEUncrasher (https://github.com/Kapps/PoEUncrasher) is indeed able to prevent the freezes caused by the Windows 24H2 update.

This worked for me!
Run the program as admin be4 you start POE2 and so far 0 crashes!

hope this helps you guys!

The fix is to rollback to Windows 23H2. I don't understand why people are not doing this and instead spending so much time on the forum and trying out some obscure Github scripts. Just rollback and it will fix the issue for 99.99999% of people.

This thread is way longer than it should be.
Here is what i tried:

- Turn off Nvidia Overlay,
- Turn off Nvidia Reflex,
- Lighting: shadows only.
- Add poe2 Roam folder as some post suggest.

Never had a crash since.

2 days ago, I tried turn Nvidia Reflex back on, and Lighting with Shadows and Global Illumination, the crash comeback the first loading screen.
Turn off again, and the crash gone, even when i abuse the loading screen, never crash once.
I was very pessimistic that some configuration changes could fix temporary the issue until GGG team address it, but it seems that changing one option actually worked out and I didn't have single crash since then.

I changed in the game option to not use DirectX12, but Vulkan instead and then my PC stopped shutdown itself every 1–2 maps. I don't have freezes or any client crashes as well. Hope this can work out for some of you until patch is released.

It's a long thread because there's people here on Linux (last one, Nobara distro), or people like me that first rolled back, didn't fix it and then did a clean install of 23h2 and still didn't fix it.

It's an issue important and widespread enough to warrant this thread. Unless you're going to read the whole thing, don't come here spewing bullshit, go play the game if it's working for you and leave us alone.
same issue

9600x
4070 ti super

resolved by restricting 10% using BES and disabling core 0 and 1.

hope for a fix soon from GGG
