Do not assume your PC is stable just because Windows boots.
Outdated GPU drivers or inadequate system memory (RAM) can lead to RSX (graphics) thread failures.
: The most common technical cause involves Write Color Buffer (WCB) and Write Depth Buffer (WDB) configurations. A surface may be erased from the surface cache while a reference to it remains active in the texture cache. Upscaling Incompatibilities rpcs3 thread terminated due to fatal error verified
Right-click the game again, hover over , and click on Clear SPU Cache .
Look at the lines immediately before the fatal error. You might see something like: Do not assume your PC is stable just because Windows boots
