The Warzone crashing to Desktop without any warning message is a resolved issue.
The Warzone crashing to Desktop without any warning message is a resolved issue.
Tried to launch warzone on my PC and it crashes without any error, just brings me back to Desktop. It usually fails at the lobby screen. I looked online and found only a few things about this kind of issue: rolling back GPU driver (seems Warzone doesn't support newer ones), increasing the page file on Windows (didn't fully solve the problem—it crashes during gameplay or while searching for a fix), disabling overlays (only MSI Afterburner was used, but it didn't work), turning off Windows notifications (found on Reddit by someone with the same error, but I can't confirm if this helps). If anyone else knows why Warzone might crash, let me know.
My system specs:
I3-10105f
16GB RAM at 2666MHz
GTX 750 2GB (possibly the issue is there, though other games run fine—likely drivers)
I believe this might be a driver issue, since Fortnite also crashed during launch several times before. It's unusual for my GTX 750 to experience that, so I ran a fresh driver update and everything seems to be functioning properly now. I played a few Warzone matches and everything is working well.
I think your system might lack sufficient VRAM. The 750 model has 1GB, while the GPU is suggested as a minimum requirement of 2GB for Warzone, especially on the version with the least VRAM. You could attempt to run at the lowest resolution and settings, but it may still be insufficient.
I will check the event monitor for any critical issues. There might be memory, DLL, or CPU problems, or even file corruption could be involved. I won’t blame anything specific, just ask what might help clarify the situation. Also, Warzone uses a lot of GPU power, so it’s unlikely to run smoothly at more than 40 FPS on a GTX750. UPD... Not enough VRAM on your card. For 1920x1080 it needs at least 2.6 GB, and even 1280*720 will require over 2GB.
Just an example
This is the absolute lowest possible setup this game can support... All adjustable options through the game are wiped away. Even the smallest 800x600 resolution needs more than 2GB of VRAM. Therefore, unless you use extremely advanced tricks via Nvidia inspector, you won’t be able to run Warzone on your GPU.
I managed to complete the full match without any crashes. I understand that Warzone requires a lot of VRAM, yet some players succeed with just 1GB.
Technically you weren't supposed to. But I already mentioned where you should look for clues and figure things out.
I believe this might be a driver issue, since Fortnite also crashed during launch several times before. It's unusual for my GTX 750 to do that. After installing a fresh driver, everything seems to work properly. I played a few Warzone matches and everything functioned correctly.
Some recommended fixes include installing the latest game patch, updating the graphics driver, verifying the integrity of your game files, repairing system files, closing unnecessary background applications, adjusting graphics settings, switching to DirectX 11, increasing virtual memory, temporarily disabling Windows Defender, disabling overlay, and renaming the game file.
