    There's still a lot of crashes and have no idea where they come from, but this one seems to happen when I press shift and zoom in or out.

    So, unless there is something wrong with my DxDiag, i'm not sure what to do other than wait.
    There are not any new drivers being shown in Geforce experience, so if there are new drivers then something is wrong with geforce experience.

    Strange, I just tried it, but I can't seem to make it crash the way you describe. I've been zooming in and out like crazy keeping shift pressed or tapping shift, all while having a commander selected, nothing selected, fabber selected. I have NVidia as well, but under Linux. My graphics settings are set to Uber even.

    It happens rarely, usually when my memory/ram is being stressed. Sometimes it almost happens, where the game freezes for a few seconds, then stabilizes back.

    The most recent time this happened, I had a group of fabbers that were building a long queue of bot factories selected.

    Hello,

    Your Nvidia drivers could use an update:
    Code:
    Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770
    Driver Version: 9.18.13.4052
    Driver Date/Size: 7/2/2014 16:48:32, 17555104 bytes
    There are new drivers (dated 10/22/2014) available on the Nvidia website:

    Hmmm, thanks for that.

    I guess there is something wrong with Geforce experience after all.

    EDIT: I downloaded the drivers manually and it's now showing that i have the newest drivers.
    Oh nvidia you make me giggle.

    Did it fix your crashes though?

    So yeah this still happens. I think I've narrowed it down to pressing shift when having a flak cannon selected, because so far that has been the one thing similar in every crash.

    Something is up with flaks and the queue previews I think.
