My PC is crashing constantly since 30.09.2020 when playing FS2020. It crashes and restarts immediately (without blue screen and error message).
It is interesting that it is only with FS2020.
With CoD mw, Assassins Creed Odyssey and RDR2 it doesn’t happen, although CoD needs more power.
Strange is also that the PC crashes without any noticeable features.
I mean; not for example in big cities or at a certain altitude.
So completely random. It crashes on loading, it crashes in the menu, the game runs for 2 hours and then crashes.
What have I done until now:
-I have done several driver updates
-Windows updates made, currently Windows Verison 1909
(I could not install Windows update 2004 even with the Windows
update assistant)
-FS updates made until and including today 13.10.2020
-temperatures monitored by g-card & processor (nothing special detected)
(the game crashed also by 50 c. Gcard and 60c. processor)
-RAM checked (exchanged with another pair)
-and many other little things like (resolution changed and others)
I slowly despair
My PC:
Windows 10 Pro
Motherboard aorus z270x gaming 5
Graphics card MSI RTX 2080 ti X (no oc)
Processor i7 7700k 4.2 ghz - 4.5 (noc oc)
Corsair power supply 750w
RAM 32gb Corsair 3200mhz (workflow 2133mhz)
The game won’t do that, it sounds more like a hardware problem. Maybe power supply or thermals on it. If you couldn’t even install the Win 10 2004 update, that maybe points to a Windows problem.
Re-setting Windows may cure the problem as I said.
However go first to the MicroSoft website and download and install every version of Visual Basic you can find. Reboot, see if that works,
Also before re-setting Windows, you could go into Apps and Settings and right-click on the App and choose the “Repair App” function. If all else fails, your drivers etc are UTD, THEN consider re-setting Windows and updating to 2004.
check the temperature of your Ram (with your hand) i had this as a problem. only ocured on MSFS and 2 other games but most of the games where working perfect.
for everyone who has to struggle with this problem.
this video has helped me. I don’t know exactly which step was the most important, because I did almost all of them.
I had the same problems as you and tried everything I could find on the forums.
I then downloaded MSI Afterburner which enables adjusting the GPU settings on MSI and other graphics cards. To cut a long story short I moved all the setting sliders to the left (minimum) and found that I now hardly ever get a PC reboot crash. The settings in the game are High End PC !This only works with MSFS 2020 not X-Plane or P3D, these require standard settings. My Graphics card is a RTX2080 Ti.
