VR games tend to crash too if the drive you are running the games from do not have a swap file ( pagefile ). However, you can setup secondary drives with GPT and use that for gaming instead.ĭon't forget to restart SteamVR after making any changes to the settings options for it to take effect. For your main hard drive to support GPT partitions your system must allow for UEFI booting capabilities via the BIOS. If you have a mechanical drive or a standard drive, it may cause some strain regardless of how powerful your system is. I also find that I get better drive performance by using SSD drives with GPT partitions and not MBR.

Each games has their own graphics options so you have to play with it to get it just right. This way I get better visuals without the crashes. I set my game graphics to high texture and density with low shadows when the options allow for it. If it crashes you need to lower the graphics settings within the game. If it doesn't crash, exit the game, re-launch it in flat mode and increase the games graphics settings and do the same thing. You should also launch your games in flat mode first, lower their resolutions to low or medium and then launch them in VR. SteamVR sets your headset to 100% resolution per eye even if your system can't handle it so you need to adjust that after you launch SteamVR via the hamburger menu. What video card are you using ? I have an NVIDIA RTX 2070 and in order to avoid crashes I must lower the SteamVR per eye resolution from 100% to 50 - 66%.
