Game crashing on new PC

Post by cameron274 »

Hello,

I just built a new PC and Factorio has been crashing on it fairly frequently. Since this is a new PC, I expect it's a hardware issue but am not sure of the cause. I've attached one of the logs - the game works fine for 10-30 minutes, then crashes.

I'm playing with several mods enabled, including the overhaul mod Industrial Revolution 2 and some QOL mods. Any help is much appreciated, thanks :)

After running memtest86, found out the issue was my RAM (specifically, the RAM slots on my motherboard). Switched to the two working slots and the game now runs crash-free :)
