Factorio Forums

I start the game and it runs normally for a while but after a random amount of time, the game either Crashes to Desktop or outright Blue-screens my computer. This problem does not occur when using the computer for normal internet browsing or even when playing any other game at all. Here is the link to my Drive folder where I have the crash log and my latest used save in it. Thanks in advance for any help.

If your computer is blue screening then there's something wrong with your hardware or operating system/drivers.

Try running this and see if it says anything is wrong: http://www.memtest.org/

Hopefully I ran the right memtest, given that this one took 3 hours. I also ran Prime95 for 30 minutes and there was no crash. This is what the test summary looks like for memtest.

Until there's additional information (ways to reproduce this) there's nothing I can do.

It's not possible for Factorio to cause a BSOD which means you have something else wrong with your computer.

On Windows 10 BSOD screens, there is a line "If you'd like to know more, you can search online later for this error: SOME_ERROR", you should search for the error, when it happens next time.
