    Ever since I bought rF2 in the middle of last year it has regularly crashed on me. It's the only sim (or game) I own that does it. I run Assetto Corsa, iRacing, Raceroom, Elite Dangerous etc and they all work absolutely fine.

    The crash is typically the kind where everything locks and the screen will fill with a single colour. There is no particular car or track that does it.

    I have to hold the power button in on my PC to reboot it.

    My system:
    OS: Windows 7 (64bit)
    CPU: Intel i5 4670K @4Ghz
    GPU: Radeon HD7850 (2Gb) TwinFrozr
    Ram: 8Gb Crucial Ballistix

    1. I have a slight OC on the CPU but it is only the recommended one provided by the BIOS.
    2. There is no OC on the GPU apart from the factory one it comes with.
    3. Someone suggested last year that I do a complete reinstall but at the time I was too busy. I've done it now with the latest build (including the data folder) but the crashes are still there.

    I don't see how it can be my system when rF2 is the only software that does it. Are there any crash logs I can send to ISI?

    Thanks.

    Had a similar situation and found latest crimson drivers to be the culprit. I rolled back to older.

    Are you running any plugins?

    When I go into AMD Radeon Settings, under Overview it says 'Radeon Software Edition - Crimson'. What should it say?

    ATM the only plugin is the TrackMapPlugin. However I only recently installed it and on the previous installation I wasn't using it at all and still had the crashes.

    The only other thing is TrackIR, but that comes with rF2 anyway so should be fine.
