Hi all,

For a few weeks now, I've been running into this issue in LFS where, when our races run (CESAV), the game will crash for a few seconds and then recover.

The problem is that this usually happens in the middle of our race event (around 23:00 - 23:10), which means I usually end up in a wall, crashed, and I have to retire from the race. This is becoming extremly frustrating, as I've lost a lot of points due to this ongoing issue.

Steps I took to remidiate the issue:
- Reinstall LFS (game still crashed).
- Wipe previous graphic card driver (via DDU) and reinstall it fresh (game still crashed).
- Install new version driver (game still crashed).
- Stop all automatic Windows and graphics auto-updates (yep, game still crashed).

The game until that point runs smooth, and after the crash, if I can proceed, also will run find. I can't find the issue that is causing this crash so far, so I ask for your help if anyone has found himself in the same pickle.

In case it's helpful, here are the PC specs:
- AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
- AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT
- Asus TUF Gaming B650-plus
- 32GB Corsair RAM (AMD SmartAccess Memory is enabled, but has been since the system was built)
- Samsung 990 PRO 1TB (where LFS is installed)
- Windows 11 (updated right now to latest version from a couple of weeks ago)

This has been 4 or 5 weeks running, so any suggestions are welcomed. I'll probably try with a fresh install of Windows as a next step, but I would like to avoid it if possible - especially since the system was built over a year ago and I run with no issues...

Check if the game is running on the graphics card or on the integrated card with the CPU. You can check this in LFS itself

Do such crashes happen in any other gfx intesive app or a game? Can you observe your gfx card temperautre at the moment of crash, is there anything wierd about it? How much are cpu and gpu utilizitaion while game is running normaly? Are you using fps cap or vsinc in lfs? Is your ssd firmware up to date? Might be worth to post a crash log.

I have the same issue (also from spain but got the fla gof argentina for hotlaps) and I also found the same trouble, yesterday I was racing in RG Rally cup and also saw the temperature because one friend adviced me, he told me to lock to 90 FPS, didnt work btw, and the temperatures in the moment of the crash were 70ºC didn't even reached 90 which i believe is considered high. My GPU utilization usally gets to 100%, either its a virus or something that i have no idea...

I use 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12450H processor with 16 GB RAM.
