• Left 4 Dead 2 crashes during loading screen "posters"
    0 replies, posted
So, I'm not active here, but I'm going to try asking for some help anyway while I wait and see what Steam forums/discussions have to offer. Honestly, I'm considering reformatting and going to Windows 8, but I'll wait and listen to advice from other users. First, I'd like to reference this "discussion": [url]http://steamcommunity.com/app/550/discussions/0/618457398960599994/[/url] As I've already tried my own amount of troubleshooting. Someone linked to a website with some fixes regarding common issues. Unfortunately, none have worked for me. 3, 5, and 6 seem to have closer relation to my problem (6 maybe is more). [url]http://www.crashwiki.com/top-10-fixes-left-4-dead-2-crashes-errors-freezing-low-fps-steamcloud-character-difficulty-bug/[/url] As I said in the discussion, I've already tried the following: Deleted ClientRegistry.blob Lowered page pool memory v-sync was already disabled mat_queue_mode was already on 0 multicore rendering was already disabled I'd greatly appreciate any help you have to offer me. Especially since I'm sitting here on a newly built system. This new system is only a few weeks old, never had a L4D2 problem until now. So in that regard, I'm rather confident anything the game requires is up to date. The last time I successfully played the game was a few days ago. We can rule out any changes to the game or Steam or even addons. Only thing changed is the passage of time. I looked in Event Viewer and this was something to stand out: [i]Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 10.0.10041.0 Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll[/i] It either gets all the way to a full progress bar or very close and crashes. Windows says "left4dead2.exe stopped working" or something like that. It then gathers and sends information to Microsoft. [i]Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview 64-bit Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 2.83 GHz 8.00 GB Dual Channel DDR2 @ 533 MHz ASUSTeK Computer Inc. P5Q DELUXE (LGA 775) 896 MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 (EVGA) 596 GB Western Digital SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio[/i] Yea, I know Windows 10 isn't final. But as I already said before, it was running fine all month. I noticed the problem started yesterday. And the game was perfectly fine at least a day or two before. The rest of my programs all seem to be working properly. Windows 10 itself is rather stable for me so far. Only L4D2 is a known problem I'm aware of. Except for upgrading itself between builds, it's a clean install. Specifically I've only gone from one build to another. Thank you for your time and help.
