+Zagadka Subscriber² Posted May 25, 2015 Subscriber² Share Posted May 25, 2015 I avoided Witcher 2 for a while, but I wanted to catch up so I can do Witcher 3... So I labor back at it, and after arriving at the first chapter (damn long prologue)... it just kinda locks up. Randomly, I can't replicate it on demand, and it happens whether I'm fighting or walking around or trading. The graphics lock, background sound continues, have to tab out and terminate the process. Running full vanilla. It happens frequently enough that it is impossible to play. The usuals (drivers, background processes, reinstalling) don't help. The outlier here is that it never locked up in prologue. Suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zodiarck Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Have you used the site CanIRunIT ? I'm asking this things because i also just started playing the witcher 2 , and i'm fine , and if your hardware can run it , maybe it's the windows version (IMO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PabUK Veteran Posted May 25, 2015 Veteran Share Posted May 25, 2015 Have you tried dropping the graphics settings? What sort of FPS are you getting and how much is it taxing your GPU? You can run something like GPU-Z in the background while playing to check this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Zagadka Subscriber² Posted May 25, 2015 Author Subscriber² Share Posted May 25, 2015 It isn't the graphics card struggling, I have a machine well beyond the specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PabUK Veteran Posted May 25, 2015 Veteran Share Posted May 25, 2015 You haven't really provided much info, like a list of your specs and what settings you are using. Even if you have a powerful system you can still easily max it out, by not using V-Sync for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Zagadka Subscriber² Posted May 25, 2015 Author Subscriber² Share Posted May 25, 2015 I was slack on system specs because I'm pretty damn sure it isn't hardware or driver related and more than sufficient for Witcher 2. My card is a 4 GB 760 GTX, system is i5 3.6 GHz, 8 GB RAM, other games and benchmarks run fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
