My game hasn't frozen or crashed or anything, but every hour or so my game will randomly tab out, I'm not sure why but it's extremely irritating because I can just tab back in but that takes about 5 seconds. Which is valuable team that can mean life or death in any fight, it happened during my fell omen fight and he was low on health and I died because of it

[duffborgwardt]

So far so good. Thank you. Just got about 4-6 hours in and no freezes.

[emotbagga]

thank you, i think it helped

i havend had any issues so far after doing what you showed in your video

[mas_yaris]

my game is just constantly crashed whenever I fight a lightning dragon, it was running smoothly before, no frame drops, just instant crash
even after I turn down the setting it still happen
any solution for this one?

[Jolibro]

Thank you so much, since the 1.09 update it kept on crashing and with your tutorial it was able to run again, i don't know what the problem was but one of the things you listed here certainly fixed it

[maxwelkrauth]

Every time I enter the character edit screen in the roundtable hold my game crashes, can’t fix it, nothing has worked

[ecobasetech]

I have had absolutely no issues until today after the latest patch and while going to the far East of Caelid while farming the smaller Dragons

[andreiiiksavvv]

In my case, right after i beat the valiant gargoyle it freezes for a few seconds and then crashes

[calavera]

i need help at the first step i used to see summon signs i dont anymore i dont see golden summon signs

[cyro]

Thank you so much, my game was literally unplayable because it kept crashing when I opened the game until you showed me how to do it

[smartintensekouks]

Huge thanks, I've beem trying for months to solve my random stuttering problem. It was either disabling fullscreen optimizations or disabling windows resolution scaling. Great advise!

[jamesg]

My game freezes for a good second or two with the first controller input of the day. Then randomly throughout my time playing. It freezes then speeds up to catch up.

My game crashed and nothing on the controls work I unplugged my console and i lost all of my data in game i was lvl 47 now I’m at lvl 10 it’s like I started all over again:(

[giacomoguidi]

What if i don’t have the compability in the program properties?

[alviandrapiero]

i only crashed on the lift that leads up to caelid ravine, anyone has the same problem?

[randomguyodst]

It doesn’t work I’m still getting freeze frames.

[mikejay]

Its crashing on my steam deck and laptop in the exact same places, I started a new game and no crashes, I think it's something to do with the save file

[xenos]

mine always crashes when i go near the erd tree

[Maxillmus]

Why does my screen turn white when I open up elden ring and than crashes

[EstusEnthusiast]

I'm seeing a lot of people saying they get a white screen on startup but my problem is a little different so their solution might not work for me. I can enter the game with no problems but after I die and the loading screen appears that's when the game crashes, it always crashes on loading screens after you die, anybody else having this problem?
