Forza Horizon 5 crashing 0xc0000005 error code

PhillipStamper · Dec 13, 2021

I've had this problem before and I'm doing the same things now when I had the problem before. I've turned off my antivirus, run the game as administrator, signed out and back into my account. It's giving me the same error code 0xc0000005 (access violation).

I've tried doing everything on the link you provided, but the game still doesn't work. Code error 0xc0000005 always in eventviewer.

I was playing Forza Horizon 4, and it seems to crash a lot sooner for some reason, with the same error code 0xc0000005. It seems what I did, didn't fix the problem.

Thanks for the additional information.

I was reviewing the list of known issues of Forza Horizon 5.
Actually, the error 0xc0000005 is one of them.

“Crash - Players are crashing in various places, navigating menus, driving, resulting in a Windows error code: 0xc0000005 (3341500)”

I encourage you to report the problem to Forza support. Don’t forget to share your hardware specifications with them.

Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

That is still listed as a known issue with the game. See the suggested troubleshooting here https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/...

I tried monitoring the RAM and noticed that my GPU spikes when the crash occurs. Not sure what that means if anything, but It freezes both my monitors for a sec, then the game closes, and everything returns to normal. Something that never happened on WIN 10 is that after the crash the GPU spike left some bugs, for example, a blacked-out Task Manager and Wallpaper Engine wallpapers. My graphic drivers are up-to-date, but it could maybe be a problem with the newest driver. If that was the case more people would have this problem so I just don't know anymore. It's stupid, to the point where I can barely get 5 mins of game time xd
