PC Games Crashing At Launch.

[KRC]

This is just pasted from another forum which I posted earlier.

So I've hit an issue with about 50% of the games I have.

When I launch some games they will crash and sometimes it will say "Not Responding DX9" , It doesn't always say this but when it does crash the window or fullscreen will go white and say not responding. So It either quits itself or I have to ctrl+alt-delete and end task.

Games that it does happen with are wwe 2k19, The conjuring house, Jurassic world evolution and a few others.
Also some games take at least 1-2 minutes to even load to the first screen.

My spec
i7 7700K, GTX 1070ti, Corsair 16gb DDR4 2100mhz, Asus H110M-R, CX550-M. Games are stored on my secondary 4TB Seagate HDD.
Windows 10 is stored on a crucial 500GB SSD.

 

Anyone got any ideas or ran into something similar.

Well the problem seemed to have fixed itself when I updated to Windows 10 update 1903.

Sort of makes you wonder what previous "fix" 1903 removed or repaired, doesn't it?

Yes definitely makes me wonder. 

I had a similar issue about a year ago with games using Unreal Engine 4, they would crash on startup or within 5 mins of gameplay. To be honest some of them still do this.

I personally think it was a DirectX issue but all the troubleshooting I did didnt bring me any joy.
