Hey there, I see you're dealing with ERR12 in Monster Hunter World. It's frustrating when things don't work despite your best efforts. You've tried reinstalling the game, updating drivers, boosting system resources, and even checking your GPU and power settings. Since other games are running smoothly, it might be a hardware issue. Your specs look solid—your GPU is a high-end model, and Windows is up to date. If you're still stuck, consider testing with a different graphics card or consulting the game's support forums for more targeted advice. Let me know if you need further guidance!
Is the game running on DirectX 12? If not, switch to it. If it's crashing, try DirectX 11 or Vulkan.
All the information I've gathered about this (and your symptoms) suggests a fresh install of the graphics drivers is all you need. If you decide to do that, just download DDU now—don’t start it yet! Switching to SafeMode, removing the drivers, rebooting, and then reinstalling the newest ones could help. Also, updating the AMD chipset drivers might boost performance.
No success. After updating to DX12 from the previous version in the graphics_config file, I’m now experiencing a complete system freeze and a black screen. Progress seems limited, though I’ve made four attempts to fix it, even switching to windowed mode. It’s still puzzling.
I'll try this again later. Not tonight, I'm really exhausted, but I'll make it tomorrow afternoon and update you on the outcome.
