The crash to desktop with the error only happened once. Usually its always either full lockup or me having to use task manager. Also if I check the event manager around the time the crash happened there’s sometimes a msg there about the nvidia driver crashing and recovering or something along those lines. I’m not home right now so I cant get the exact error msg but I’m curious if you have something similar to that.

I’m actually having the same exact issue as TheBluel. Sometimes, randomly the game will either lock up my desktop with the sound looping or crash to desktop with GW2 graphic driver error msg of some sort. If it freezes up I usually have to manually reset the desktop and if I’m able to end process via task manager then the system will hang when I try to restart it or shut it down. This is so incredibly random too. I can play for many hours per day for a week with no crashes and sometimes it crashes within an hour of starting the game. This has happened with 3 different clean installs of nvidia drivers including their latest beta release. What are the specs of your machine?
