Hi there, certain games like GTA IV and now Metro Last Light and Xcom Enemy unknown have been crashing for me lately. And by lately I mean since I purchased them. I have a suspicion that it's Windows 8.
My specs are:
i7 2600k 3.4
ASrock p67 pro 3
16 gb ram
Windows 8 64 bit
Nvidia Geforce gtx 660 ti. I had read that DX 11 games can be from overlcocked video cards, but using the Asus software that came with my card I lowered the clock speeds to what is required (or so I think anyway, new to tweaking)
My most recent error in the event viewer is: Faulting application name: MetroLL.exe, version: 1.0.0.2, time stamp: 0x5194eb76
