Occasional REFERENCE_BY_POINTER 0x18

Tezzick · 16 Dec 2015

I've only gotten this BSOD a couple times in the past couple weeks. Seems to have started since the new AMD Crimson driver. Tried deleting the drivers and installing Crimson fresh but just got another crash. Last time it happened it was over a week ago, I believe, and that was after a good few hours of playing The Witcher 3. Same thing this time, only after a few hours of Witcher 3. Hasn't happened with other games, although I've only really played Witcher 3 that long in one sitting. Other games might trigger it if I played them long, I don't know.

Thank you.

Please uninstall everything of AMD using Display Driver Uninstaller and install new drivers from AMD. Be sure to ONLY install the drivers using custom/advanced options.
