Invalid Pointer Error in General Discussion
altskop

    Hey there again
    Has anybody here encountered invalid_pointer errors while playing dota? It will just crash without any error message, but after digging in some dump files I found that usually it's either invalid_pointer_read or invalid_pointer_write. Anybody knows how to fix that?
    I'm pretty much done now, I've done everything I could even imagine, starting with chkdsk, sfc and dism commands and finishing with whole freaking windows reinstallation (and dota too). Nothing helps.
    I thought it was my hardware or uefi/bios settings, never found anything.

    My specs again:
    amd fx8350
    kingston hyperx 16 gb 1833
    msi 970 motherboard
    msi 960 gtx nvidia 4gb

      i had this problem when i was overclocking my amd card but i restored defaults on affterburner or change an option and the problem was gone

        Hmm, maybe my oc option is on and I even don't know about that :D
        Good point, thanks, gotta check it now
