Guild Wars 2

Yea i know thats a weird title.
Here’s my problem, occasionally my game will freeze, at least the graphical portion.
I can still use my skills and i can hear that it is working in the background + movement of other players and such, but no amount of waiting will the situation resolve.

Before you ask, yes my drivers are updated. And this started happening since the last patch

Are you doing any overclocking (CPU, GPU)?

System specs would also help.

no overclocking.

i5 3570k
gtx670 windforce
corsair 16 gigs ram(4x strips).
windows 7

Disable the Gigabyte OC program from running at start up – it’s causing the crash.

Please follow the instructions here:

I had the same problem occuring twice so far. Both times on the start of Tequalt fight (so at the moment when there’s a lot of people/effects visible on screen). Similarly, waiting doesn’t help, I can hear everything works, but the surface is not redrawn. I normally play windowed and changing to fullscreen in this state crashed the game (I sent the crash log using the crash reporter when it happened; if I read the dump correctly, it crashed in kernelbase).
My specs are: i5 3470k, gt650ti 1GB, 8GB RAM, win7 x64. Nothing is overclocked, I don’t have gigabyte stuff in background.

I uninstalled the gigabyte OC program a long time ago, back in like 2012. I dont really know how to read the log, but it seems like when gvosd.dll is mentioned, all the time stamps are in 2012.

EDIT: a search through my directories, i can’t even find gvosd.dll.

This particular issue never caused the game to crash, i had to alt f4 to close.
In, fact i was doing Teq as well and my friend directed me on Teamspeak to get credit.
I was doing it completely blind

Since last post, i have had 4 instances of the same thing, all of them at world events.
and twice in WvW, zerg wasn’t big in these cases
