Horizons More frequent crash when alt+tabbing?

Balalaika · Oct 10, 2016

Is it just me, or the game crashing when alt+tabbing is happening a lot since the last maintenance?
Used to only happens like once per day for me, now I'm having 3-5 crashes everyday.

Anyone else's having this problem?

It's just you.

I can't remember ever having a crash when alt+tabbing.

What's your system spec, especially RAM?

I have three monitors, ED is on only one, I regularly use Chrome, Excel, & other stuff on the other monitors without issue. ED runs borderless windowed, and rather than alt-tab I'll just click away or press the windows button if I want to see the task bar.

Try using borderless window instead of full screen, see if it helps.

I had a couple of crashes the last couple of days, usually when the FSD is charging for a jump. I get sound glitches then a crash. It is stable 99% of the time.

Me too - rare, but annoying [blah]

It's couple of years old and it's that great, Intel i5-3470, AMD Radeon HD 7800 series and 16gb ram.
I am running on bordless mode, and never had these problem until recent weeks.
Guess I'll try re-installing when it es me off enough. XD

Should be ok with that system and RAM.
All I can think of is making sure the graphics drivers are up to date.
Or maybe there is another program running (recently installed) that's interfering.

I used to have an application that crashed games a lot, it took me awhile to figure out what it was. It was Citrix Reciever. It also used to close Itunes films at random and really got on my nerves!
