Problem solved. RAGE is crashing randomly.

[Cowboy Crow]

I have looked everywhere and can find nothing. The people who have the problem don't have the problem I have. They got the game crashing when they start it. Mine starts fine, I play it for around 10 - 20 mins and it crashes. With the error: Rage has stopped working.
My Specs:
ADM Phenom II X4 955 Processor 3.20 GHz
8.00 GB
64-bit Operating System
and my graphics card: GTX 550Ti Geforce

Note I can play most games at High guilty with no problem.

Does it still crash when you play the game at a lower quality?

It does not matter what I do with it. I can play for 10 - 20 mins and then it crashes.

Is the crash occurring at a specific event in the game? How exactly to does the game crash (i.e. does the game close, freeze, or glitch the hell out and then close)?

Nope. I can be driving one second, and it will freeze for 3 seconds and crash. It happens anywhere in the game. No specific point, no real warning. Just freeze and crash.

Open Event Viewer:

Find crash error. It should look something like that (in my case it was Red Alert 3 crashing, hence the name - ra3):

Take a screenshot and post it here.

Here is what I got

I will also try putting this game on my laptop when I got time, to see if it happens on that too.

Looks like a problem with the Nvidia OpenGL DLL. Try upgrading/reinstalling your graphics driver.

 

[PsychoRealm]

nvoglv32.dll is related to NVidia OpenGL driver. Reinstall your graphics card driver. If it doesn't help - roll back to the older version of the driver.

EDIT: ninja'd by tux.

Alright guys thanks. Ill try this later due to im leaving today. Ill give you any reports if this works or not as soon as I can do this.

 

[Cowboy Crow]

Okay, so I got it working for longer. But its crashing again and I reinstalled my driver and got it to the latest update. If I was to down grade I would not be sure what to down grade it to.

NVidia gives you a list of drivers for your card:

Try downgrading one-by-one. Make sure you install only driver and PhysX; do not install all this additional crap (e.g. Experience, Audio, 3D and so on). Also, make sure your GPU is not overheating.

Do any other games crash? Does 3dmark crash?

 

[Antamania]

I would like to just add to this that the game is notorious for crashing relentlessly. It might not even be your computer. Just wanted to put that out there.

 

[PsychoRealm]

Also, reset you in-game video settings to default and see if it resolves the issue.

 

[Cowboy Crow]

After reinstalling my driver again it seems to not crash now. I think im good, thanks guys.

You're welcome. I'm glad it's working for you.
