Bluescreen on zoning

Cmon... i had this problem half a year ago... and there is no fix till now?
are there to few people out there with creative cards, so ggg doesn t care?
i will not change my driver just for POE. there is no other game or program, that gives me BSOD when running... so nobody can tell me, that this is a driverproblem... it s in fact a problem JUST with POE so i don t see creative to change anything.

ggg just fix that please... it s an old problem... it s time to fix it

no offence. i like poe... but i don t crap my sound driver just for hte sake of playing it. and with this opinion, i won t be alone. and "--nosound"... no thanks


EDIT:
EDIT:
I found a fix via youtube in this forum.

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/51323

for those with creative soundcards.

not to great of a fix... but not the worst either.

so still a fix would be nice.

have a nice day

I am also having this problem will try the workaround from the other thread though i wish i could use my superior soundcard sound.... btw this only happens with this game it completely crashes my computer and it restarts itself after zoning into some areas and after some playtime, hope ggg will take some time to fix this issue since it clearly is a problem that happens when u play this particular game.

It looks like this problem is back like in Sept as the previous 2 posters have mentioned.

when zoning we're getting a hard crash, blue screen and memory dump.

I've also got an Audigy 2 ZS with the last 2010 release driver and Win7. I've never really had a problem with Windows 7 on any game and I play a lot from all over the spectrum.


the crash happens pretty reliably zoning to town via waypoint. I didn't really have this problem in beta myself but it started about 3/4 way through act 3 and now I can't zone without crashing.


I tried the packcheck and even went as far as deleting it to force a download...no joy.

i am having this problem too. i have a creative sound card. this is clearly the same problem. how was it fixed back then?

Same shit. Sounblaster X-fi Gamer and bluescreen every 10 minutes. Is --nosound really works???

I'm sadly also on the list...
Sound Blaster Audigy Player here.
When I enter the game, I can play and use waypoints as much as I want but after some play time, usualy when I travel through a few areas at feet and then discover a waypoint (in the Prisoner's Gate after Brutus or in the Forest after Mermeil for examples), then after pointing LionEye, games shuts down, shows a PAGEFAULT blue error message while playing cryptic sound and computer reboots...
Nothing is lost and next time I connect to the game, I find my character at Lioneye with all the stuff and XP I had before the crash but it's a quite hardcore bug...

Edit : "Exact" BSOD is PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA with Stop error 0x00000050

Edit2: fixed thanks to the --softwareaudio trigger as described here
