Cyberpunk 2077 crashes when entering vehicles

[iBear92]

I've had this game for a year but playing it for the first time, so I have no mods or anything, and obviously can't tell you if this is a new driver issue or not.

Happens in the Intro part of the game, the first time you enter a vehicle. Immediately after pressing the button it crashes. I then downloaded another save online that's further in the game, and I learned that just trying to enter a random car on the street does the same thing. So the problem seems to be that when the game tries to switch to the third person car mode, it just crashes.

Games own crash log gives me this error in stacktrace file:

Error reason: Unhandled exception
Expression: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xC0000005)
Message: The thread attempted to read inaccessible data at 0x338.
File: <Unknown>(0)

And this in the report file:

I spent 2 hours trying to fix it with AI guiding me and it got to a point where it ran out of options. So yeah, tried everything already from DDU'ing drivers, underclocking GPU, memtest and turning XPO on and off, tweaking a bunch of different in game graphics settings, closing overlays, disabling bluetooth, running as administrator, deleting different in game files and so on...

AI came to the conclusion that this has to be an Intel driver issue/Issue with Windows 25H2, but I haven't seen anyone else report this.

Hello  iBear92,

I hope you are doing well.

Thank you so much for reaching out to us through the community — we truly appreciate you taking the time to share this with us.

We're sorry to hear that you've been experiencing crashes while playing Cyberpunk 2077. We completely understand how disruptive that can be, especially in the middle of gameplay, and we want to help get this sorted out for you as quickly as possible.

First Step — Verify Game File Integrity

One of the key initial steps we recommend is verifying the integrity of your game files. This helps rule out any corrupted or missing files that could be causing the crashes. Have you had a chance to try this yet? If not, we'd suggest giving it a go as a starting point.

To Help Us Investigate Further

To better understand your system environment and narrow down the root cause, could you please share the following details with us?

1. When did this issue first start? Approximately when you first noticed the crashes — any recent updates, driver changes, or hardware modifications around that time would also be helpful to know.

2. Have you tried different graphics driver versions, including rolling back to a previous one? If yes, please let us know which driver versions you tested.

3. Have you tested with a different graphics card? If you have access to another card and have tried it, please share the results.

4. Game Error / Exception Dump File (Important) Please share the error or exception dump file generated at the time of the crash. This is one of the most valuable pieces of information for our investigation, as it gives us a detailed look at what's happening under the hood at the moment of failure.

5. SSU (System Support Utility) Log Please run the Intel System Support Utility tool to capture your system configuration. You can find the step-by-step instructions here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000057926/memory-and-storage.html

Once done, please attach the generated log file to your reply.

The information above will help us get a much clearer picture of your setup and allow us to investigate this more effectively.

Additionally, if you'd prefer a more hands-on approach, we're happy to connect with you directly through a remote support session or schedule a callback at a time that works best for you — just let us know!

We're committed to working through this with you and getting your experience back on track. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions in the meantime.

Hey.

I got it sorted on my own. Somehow I had managed to downloaded a mod when I installed the game a year ago even though I never played the game. Reinstalling the game didn't completely remove all the files, so I had to get a mod-remover that wiped everything and the game works now.

Thanks anyway.
