Gears 5 Tech Test - Hard-Freezing GOW4 Style On Anyone Else? (PC)

Wonder if the Control fix for pascal boards didn’t regress the game.

but then it’d be pascal only, and there are rtx users crashing more too
Did you get the September 10th Cumulative update?

Yea, I was wondering about the Cumulative update. 436.15 still going strong so far though.

alright, cool.

Edited:

Pix cannot be used on GOW5 due to EAC, gg devs.

So with the 436.15 you have no crash right?

Thanks, I was looking for this info. I’ll stick with 436.15, Zero crashes for me so far.

Yea, still no crashes on 436.15. I hope this doesn’t become the new 382.53 driver.

Guys , someone know how to fix the microphone problem? Because I speak but no one can hear me , I have fix on Gears 4 , but I can’t remember how.

If it shows the mic off icon next to your gamerpic, go into audio settings and turn Push-to-talk on and off.

Not work for me , the microphone icon is on , but in game don’t work

In your Windows Settings in the bottom right in System Tray, under Privacy, under Microphone, do you have “Allow apps to access your microphone” turned ON? With Gears 5 Listed below, with it set to On?

Some of this information can be obtained in the Help > System Information section of the nvidia control panel, others will require a tool such as Aida64.

Did you provide feedback previously?:
If yes, run dispdiag.exe and save the data to the desktop, then email the output to driverfeedback@nvidia.com with the mail address provided to the driver feedback survey.

Have you tried the game again via a Clean startup by using MSCONFIG to disable non-microsoft applications?:

Do you experience a CTD or hardlock?
If CTD, is there a visual anomaly on screen at the time the crash occurs?
If hardlock, is the audio still working in the background, is there garbage on screen?

Yes Is on

this game is hard freezing at start up for 15 seconds… are you kidding me, i’m close to giving up on this game & the devs… similiar issue from gears 4 almost similiar … this is ridiculous

You on driver 436.30? If so, revert back to 436.15.

yesss 436.30 never done it till all of sudden today… so you’re saying 436.15 doesn’t freeze up… & they say that’s a perma fix lol this dev company a joke

The game actually crashed on me on 436.15. It did the soft-freeze in the menu as I was joining a Social Match. I had to use Task Manager to close it.

On Gears 5 driver 382.53 crashes less then 436.15 on a nvidia GTX 1070 | i7-4790k | 2x4GB 1600MHz Ram (Medium settings 144 fps on horde mode) made it all the way to end of 50 a couple of times yesterday but today it crash at wave 43 pvp is untested I never use that mode.

To day Gears 5 crash on the menu , whiteout load characters and weapons , and when a start the game , he crash instantly , same for sea of thieves! I don’t know what happened , but the games from Steam and other don’t crash , so have uninstall gears 5 , and start now to download again

I give up , the game doesn’t work anymore , when I hope , all my pc freezing
