Hi @Harikusa, It appears that **Intel(R) HD Graphics 530** is set as your default GPU, as opposed to your **NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M**. This is consequently resulting in your crashes in Vermintide 2, as your default GPU cannot handle the demand. Please see below for our solutions for this problem: - Ensure your monitors are plugged in to the dedicated (as opposed to the integrated) GPU ports on the back of your PC - Perform a clean re-installation of your GPU drivers using the appropriate instructions below: - For NVIDIA GPUs: [https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/articles/360021233554--PC-How-to-perform-a-clean-re-installation-of-your-NVIDIA-GPU-drivers](https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/articles/360021233554--PC-How-to-perform-a-clean-re-installation-of-your-NVIDIA-GPU-drivers) - For NVIDIA GPUs: Ensure both Steam and Vermintide 2 are set to use your dedicated GPU within the NVIDIA Control Panel by: 1. Right-click the desktop and select the ‘NVIDIA Control Panel’ 2. Navigate to ‘Manage 3D Settings’ \> ‘Program Settings’ 3. Locate Steam within the list of programs 4. Within the ‘Select the preferred graphics processor for this program:’ dropdown, choose the NVIDIA GPU 5. Then locate Vermintide 2 within the list of programs, and repeat the above step - For Windows 10 users: 1. Navigate to ‘Settings’ \> ‘System’ \> ‘Display’ 2. Select ‘Graphics Settings’ 3. Select the ‘Browse’ button and locate the Vermintide 2 executable (Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Warhammer Vermintide 2\binaries) 4. Select the ‘Options’ button 5. Choose ‘High performance’ and save your changes Let me know if you have any problems. ---

Your NVIDIA GTX 980M is now detected as your default GPU which is great, however the crash report does indicate a GPU-related crash is still occurring. Please try running through all of our potential solutions here: > **[\[PC\] How to Resolve GPU Crashes](https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/articles/360034654593--PC-How-to-Resolve-GPU-Crashes)** > >  Please note that these solutions are intended for players who are experiencing GPU crashes. Fatshark Support will be able to confirm which particular crash you're experiencing with a crash report.... Let me know how you get on! ---

Everything that is in that guide was done besides “Worker threads”, now I have no idea what that is, but my maximum was 6 and I had it up to 5, I set it on 4 and I have finished 5 maps and failed few missions, not a single glytch/statter/crash! What are these Worker threads are anyways? P.S. Thank you for solving this issue for me Mr Lev! P.P.S. You deserve a home made apple pie. ---

No problem - glad to hear that! 😁 The Worker Threads setting determines how many of your PC’s processors the game will utilize - decreasing this reduces the impact on your CPU. It’s particularly useful for players running other CPU intensive software (e.g. streaming programs) or for anyone having trouble with their CPU overheating. CPU troubles can sometimes be the cause of GPU crashes, which is likely in this instance. ---

I even reduced to 3 and still errors, not majority, but god damn, error every 4th-5th game is too many for this kind of an old game. If player has to figure out why he’s having errors all the time it’s not players fault. ## GUID: d81cfdc0-9328-429a-83f7-d617a46d3a5e Log File: Info Type: * * * ---

Both of those crash reports show GPU-related crashes still ☹ Were you able to play stably for a time? Has anything changed, like a driver update, since? I’d say it’s also worth running through the solutions in the article above again. ---

Em, I used to play maybe like a year and a half ago, regularly, had Worker threads on 6 out of 6, never have I had a crash, ever, recently, month or two ago I started to play regularly again and I had crashes pretty often and in last maybe 3 weeks I am having really big problems with crashes. Nothing on my side has changed, just that the game became much more buggier. During game I rarely have any form of issue, now that I dropped to 3 worker threads I do feel fps drop, but not often. P.S. I did go through that list on several occasions and did everything, so far I’m on 3 worker threads. crashing game every now and then. ---

The crash report shows another GPU crash unfortunately ☹ I’m at a bit of a loss, as you’ve exhausted all of our usual solutions. I appreciate it isn’t ideal, but I’m happy to contact Steam and request a refund on your behalf (providing Vermintide 2 was originally purchased through Steam) - let me know if this is something you’d wish to do. Sorry I’m unable to be of more help! ---

Don’t know if you’re working on fixing these critical bugs, but maybe this will help. I’ve noticed that majority of crashes happened on maps with warpstone. They were all underground and mostly ratmen infested maps like Skittergate, Hunger in the dark. ---
