New gaming PC but classic wow crashing every time
- Thread starter Sharpy_1
- Start date
Can you describe the exact moment(s) that the crash occurs?
E.g. is this still ONLY when loading into character select?
In other words? You have never loaded into the game itself?
It would help a lot to be really specific, so that you can search for the right threads.
There are certainly a lot of threads complaining about AMD issues, certain drivers, etc, but finding fixes in those is like needle in a haystack scenario.
As soon as I press a button

Think I'm close to giving up and kindly asking OcUk for a replacement Nvidia card.
Neither of the other two 'fixes' worked either btw
hmmmm - maybe I'll just let it sit for a couple hours?

Stuck on "photosensitive seizure warning" screen :: Audiosurf General Discussions
The game won't let me press "OK" to proceed past the photosensitive seizure warning screen. Is this happening to anyone else? How can I fix this? I already tried verifying game cache and reinstalling the game, but neither of those fixed the problem.

Did you try this?
World of Warcraft is not responding
If you have AMD cards currently the recent wow update broke the dx12 comp with AMD cards, this IS on blizzard side of things and not AMD the tempoary fix is to do the following that was written on US forums/Reddit. Open the launcher > WoW > Options > Game Settings > tick Additional Command Line...

So far as I'm aware (from reading the posts), you do that within the battle.net launcher, not in the game.Would love to give it a go but I can't even access the game settings as I can't get past the first screen
If you don't use the launcher, you can probably edit the shortcut to add the argument, may need additional research.
Could it be related to the region settings? E.g. trying to log into US when you're UK/EU?
I can also see some comments about a drop down having the wrong account type selected, but vague about what / where this is located.

Love a happy ending.
Jesus christ, game has been running absolutely fine, I decided to login to retail wow to see how it looks with new PC. CRASHED.
Thought nothing of it, went to log back into classic and it's crashing again.
Uninstalled, reinstalled and did this, Open the launcher > WoW > Options > Game Settings > tick Additional Command Line Arguments > add in -d3d11 > Done
Still not working, oh man, why oh why did I launch retail.
Yep, back to square 1 and crashing again, for some reason the desktop shortcut also doesn't have the wow logo.

So over this now, going to call OCUK tomorrow and ask if they will exchange for an Nvidia card.
How odd that the below fixed the problem before but now it's not

AMD and wow just do not go, it's like blizzard has an unwritten agreement with Nvidia to intentionally make it as such a ballache to support AMD
Could someone please recommend the best Nvidia card which I will order via Ocuk? I can order it, then when it arrives, send this one back to OcUk for a refund if they agree to it.

Spoke with OcUk sales team and going to go ahead and order https://www.overclockers.co.uk/msi-...-pci-express-graphics-card-gra-msi-04631.html and send the AMD back for a refund.
Stop playing wow?
Yes indeed
