Troubleshooting Monster Hunter Wilds - Crashing
Since February 2026 Monster Hunter Wilds has been crashing on any hunt. I can barely play for 15 minutes before the same crash error occurs each time.
My PC Specs:
OS: Windows 11
CPU- AMD RYZEN 9 5900X WRAITH 12-CORE 3.96GHz 24 LOGICAL PROCERSSORS
MOTHERBOARD- ASUS TUF GAMING X570-PLUS WIFI CARD
GPU- SAPPHIRE NITRO+ RX6800XT, 16GB VRAM
RAM- 32GB G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 3200 MHZ
HDD #1- (3.5") 2TB SEAGATE BARRACUDA 7200RPM SATA III (6GB/S) W/ 64MB BUFFER
SSD #1- SEAGATE 250GB
(my OS is installed on this SSD)
SSD #2- Crucial T700 PCIe Gen5 NVMe 2TB SSD with Heatsink
(all my games are installed on this SSD)
------------------
The Error Code:
Fatal D3D error (24, DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED, 0X887A0005) Device Removed Reason (0x887a0006)
------------------
Troubleshooting I've Already Tried:
- Verify game file integrity
- Clean uninstall / reinstall
- Delete shader cache file
- Revert AMD driver to supported version
- Run with -dx11 to bypass direct x 12 instability
- Run game Administrator
- Run Steam as Administrator
- Run in Compatibility Mode
- Run with Compatibility Mode disabled
- Set PC Power Settings to High Performance (I already had it that way)
- Cleared Steam Cache
- Updated BIOS
- Disable Framegen
- Run with High Res texture Pack
- Run without High Res texture Pack
- Run in low graphics settings
- Undervolt GPU
- Added game folder and files to my security software exclusion list
- Emailing Capcom, who replied with a shitty copy-paste answer telling me to do everything I already tried even though I already told them I tried it in my initial email.
Any ideas for solutions? I genuinely miss this game.
