It's a good question, would also like to know, similar situation.

Not going to scour through the 600 pages/smth thread, anyone got any up-to-date info?
some folks had issues related to some Windows update, they were able to resolve it afaik?

some others however still have issues. so it depends on what caused your issue i guess?
pls
-fix targeting system ("smart algorithm" changing your target is horrible)
-fix skills that lack any inherent movement built into to actually NOT MOVE YOU when using "Attack Without Moving". <- skills like Ice Strike MUST NOT move you if out of range with "attack without moving" command!
thx :)

It looks like it may be fixed for a majority of players, but the hard freeze (loading gears followed by lockup) is definitely still an ongoing issue for the rest. Judging by how much the "freeze threads" on this forum have slowed down it would seem that this is the case.

I haven't had any issues in the last couple days, though I had them really bad for a few days. I think it is fixed.

This is what GGG posted in the patch notes:

"In order to work around a common crash that was occuring on nVidia hardware with recent drivers the game can now recover from "Device Removed" events. When this occurs the game will display a loading screen (and pause) while it attempts to recover. This only applies for this specific type of client crash, not all client crashes."
Let's work together to make this world a better place :)
The full PC crash issue was fixed for me in PoE 2, but I haven't played in about a month, so I'm assuming it didn't come back somehow. However, the full PC crash was not fixed in PoE 1 when I tried to play the new event.

I will say, I still had CONSTANT crashes in PoE 2 (crash to desktop every 30m-1hr), which led me to quit the game anyway, just not hard PC crashes.
I'm on Windows 11 23H2, 9800X3D 4080 Super, 32GB DDR5 6000 RAM and i just had a full system freeze in Dawn of the Hunt :(
i have ryzen 7 7700x and rtx 4090. as long as i know problem with freezing system was only on x3d cpu but still i have same problem on my 7700x and 4090 ddr5 and latest win 11
