Monster Hunter Wilds: [Resolved] Playing this causes my whole PC to crash (Fix)
Short answer
Have you try playing the game on lower resolution and graphic settings? It worked well for me till recently, and I refuse to believe that resolution and graphics settings are the cause
The problem
This has only started happening recently, my whole PC will just freeze up during gameplay with the audio replaying in a frozen hum if I'm describing it correctly, forcing me to hard reboot. I have 567 hours on this game, and this problem has only started happening about 2 or 3 weeks ago I'm running on an i7-14700F, 32GB DDR4 and RTX5070 Ti.

MOBO bios has been updated to the latest version, the game is installed in my 4TB SSD https://valid.cpuid.com/5dg51vwn
Good stuff. When did you update your bios btw and what was it running before? you might wanna check out the BSOD and WHEA reports detailed in that validation link btw. What's your PSU? Also, your monitors are running at 60hz... well below the 165hz they can be running.
Did this work for you?
