    Dont know what is going on with this game as its the only game thats crashing on me no matter what i do.

    running oc`d or stock does not matter game will freeze on the first level about 5 seconds in system freeze then driver has been recovered.

    looked at event viewer : faulting module : aticfx32.dll

    running beta 6 stock or oc`d still still freeze.... if i disable crossfire game runs but with crossfire :/ crashes
    its like the same crash you would get if you where very high gpu overclock wasnt stable lol

    though i know my clocks are stable. so must be game right :/ anyone else getting this same issue....

    Hmmm very strange cause the open beta ran like a dream apart from the random slowdowns in places arghhhhh

    only thing thats been upgraded on my pc is my sound card, but i cant see a soundcard causing this problem.

    EDIT : update : seems the issue is when i enable crossfire.
    game crashes right out even on stock default clocks even if i underclock it crashes out with a issue freezing then driver recovering like my cards where high oc`d on low volts ect (similar)

    tryed all my other games and there fine no issues, so what gives ? very strange.

    If you google this problem, you ll see that Nvidia users are having this same problem. It leads me to believe that is a game issue.

    I also have this system freeze at the start of the game. Sad part is that it happened in beta as well for me.

    It is like he represents 100% of the Nvidia users or us representing most of the AMD users.

    /facepalm

    I’m experiencing the same problem. Windows 8 x64 Radeon 5970 I did try Catalyst 13.2 Beta 6 and Beta 5, different profiles(like bf3) and crossfire method. No luck.

    So why is it working for some people and not for other people.
    between amd/ati/nvidia you would think the game maker would have a fkin clue.

    Load optimized defaults under BIOS.....and at times bad OS do makes things worst.....That is unwanted features installed naively as transparency....


    Well, is it a genuine one, Crysis 3???

    Its not my OS, i can run farcry 3 for hours at max settings 99% gpu usage almost with out issues,
    so why would Crysis 3 crash as soon as i load up the first mission with a cfx.dll error and freeze my system with a driver recovered.

    ---------------------------------------------------------
    and yes its genuine pfft lol

    Have you tried replacing just the dll from older versions ? dont know if it works, but maybe worth a try ? Maybe you can even place them in the crysis 3 bin folder
