The full main explanation of my issues are on my gears forum post below, PLEASE read It completely if you really care, instead of replying me with "Update your drivers" or something similar.




Some weeks ago, when I started playing Gears 5 (Microsoft Store version with Game Pass Ultimate), the game crashes, freezes and causes sometimes BSOD, even with that, I bought the game on Steam version, I've read on Steam version that issues don't exist. Wrong idea. It still crashes or freezes. I made post about It.



BSOD, freezes and crashes on Gears 5



Answers Microsoft: BSOD, freezes and crashes on Gears 5



I try always to get the most recent Drivers, BIOS motherboard, Windows updates, etc. Nothing works.

I used Aida64 stress test many times for many hours without issues, also 20 hours of memtest86 (16 passes) many times without issues. Furmark benchmark and 0 errors. Prime95, etc.

When I think my PC is fine, the game crashes. Reporting It to The Coalition, Microsoft and Nvidia is useless because they don't care. Nvidia replies my messages via e-mail but the same story "we're investigating the root cause with game developer.

Posting It again on Gears forums doesn't help: Game crashes, freezes, error GW502, BSOD... A disaster

The Coalition just ignore It.

Sending the crashdump files and memory dump files to Nvidia also don't help.

And today after I closed the game, on my Windows desktop It froze without reason, no BSOD, no error messages, forcing me to do hard reboot.

On the posts above I put videos showing how the game closes suddenly.

I started to doubt if my pc really has a problem or the game is just too broken that freezes my PC.


I used Aida64 stress test for 2 hours. I don't have problems with any other game, only Gears 5 and also Gears of War 4 which I uninstalled several months ago.

Only when I'm in touch with this game I have this issues...

Edit: Memory.dmp October 13 2019 using NotMyFault64 Nvidia told me I use to make the file and send It to him: MEMORY.rar

I used "Notmyfault64" (Recommended by Nvidia on the Email I sent to them) to make BSOD and I recently uploaded the file: MEMORY.rar

After repeating benchmarks and stress tests, I don't think my hardware is the fault, the bad software (Windows 10 and Gears 5, along with the "always beta GPU drivers in this case Nvidia) are the faulty ones.

Sharing the post to Phil Spencer, Rod Fergusson and TC Octus on Twitter also is useless, I'm being ignored. Can actually some engineer from Microsoft take care of this? I have friends who have experienced the same problems even on Xbox One, the game closes suddenly. Is ridiculous how you promote Gears 5 as one of the best shooters of this year, if it is broken, kicking you in a middle of a match...
