Help! My PC Randomly Reboots During Resident Evil Requiem

Asked By TechNoWizard789 On

I'm experiencing frustrating issues while playing Resident Evil Requiem on my PC. The system keeps crashing and rebooting, especially during loading screens, cutscenes, or when I try to return to the main menu. The event viewer shows a bugcheck code 0xE6 DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION. This occurs frequently in a specific gameplay section: when transitioning from Grace, right after the blind girl is taken, to Leon, and then back to Grace after she drops down a hole. I've tried replaying the same save file while adjusting various settings to troubleshoot, but nothing seems to help.

Here's what I've done so far:
1) Clean installed Nvidia driver version 591.86 using DDU
2) Updated my BIOS
3) Set PCIe to Gen 3
4) Turned ReBAR off
5) Disabled XMP on my RAM
6) Excluded the game folder from Windows security
7) Closed all overlays, including MSI Afterburner
8) Installed the latest Nvidia driver from 3/2.

Despite these efforts, the game still crashes when switching characters or when returning to the main menu. I even experienced a crash while attempting to load my save after a fresh game boot. Interestingly, this is the only game causing these issues for me; I just finished Silent Hill 2 Remake without any problems. I also haven't noticed any thermal spikes during gameplay.

Additionally, I'm facing audio problems, like pops and cutouts, especially when moving through doorways, like the one in the Attic. Often, my headphone audio completely cuts out during the cutscene where Leon is tied to a chair in the Attic, requiring me to unplug and replug my SteelSeries headphones. My setup includes an Nvidia 4080, Intel 13700k, MSI Z790 Wifi DDR4 motherboard, 32GB DDR4 RAM, and an EVGA 1000W PSU. The game runs at 1440p with DLSS in Performance mode, as it reverts back to that when I try to switch to Quality mode, which seems to be a known issue with path tracing enabled. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I've had similar issues and managed to fix my setup! After installing the Nvidia driver version 595.71 and getting rid of RTSS, my crashes stopped. For the audio dropouts, I switched my USB receiver to a different port on the back of my PC, and now it doesn't cut out anymore during cutscenes. Give it a shot; it worked for me!
