    When I try to load beamng drive, it becomes a black screen and freezes. Then an error massage pops up, saying, Beamng Drive has closed unexpectedly. Please someone help me! Ive tried restarting and verifying everything but it still wont work!

    Have you verified through steam, I had the same error as this, verified it though BeamNG and it still didn't work. Then I tried verifying it through Steam and, it downloaded the missing files, I was missing a small log file. It ran fine after that. Mine didn't black screen, maybe because I'm in windowed mode.

    Make it crash. Try to launch the game again but choose Support in the launcher.
    Follow the instructions and press 'Submit Informations.
    Our 'BeamNG.Support' page should open now.
    In this page only provide me the 'Support ID' (it's a 4 numbers code).
    Then you can close the page, there is no need to send another Support Ticket.

    Can you please try to reinstall/update your GPU drivers?
    Go to the Nvidia website and download the latest versions.

    The crash seems to be related to your GPU.
    Is it overclocked? (I don't recall if it's possible for mobile Nvidia cards). If it is, please return it to stock.

    FYI it totally is. "MSI Afterburner" for those who are interested, you can expect to get +135mhz on the core clock and around +200mhz on the memory clock. This has never caused any problems with any games for me, and makes my 860M better than a stock 960M :) Also as you can't play with the voltages (without a modded vbios that is) the temperatures should not rise.
    Sorry for off-topic
    Even though I have been safe from any problems with my little tweaks to my laptop, I'm not saying that overclocking is safe or something you should do. And definitely disable your overclock OP (I mean if you ever OC'd), it could very well result in something like this, but it should happen with other games too then.

    its not overclocked. i didnt modify it in any way.
    It works now! but now its a lower fps. its the same settings as before, but instead of 100 fps on gridmap,its now like 30 fps.

    Load Gridmap (do not move the camera or the vehicle)
    Go to options > gameplay > enable 'Advanced Mode'
    In the sidemenu there should be a new button named 'PERFORMANCE'
    Press it and let the graphs fill the screen.
    Press ALT+O and paste the link for the image here.

    Repeat with the Utah map.


    By doing that I can see why your game is running slow.

    Ehr, you need to leave that thing run for a while, so that the graph starts filling the screen.
    I should I precised that.

    Can you please redo, but let the graph fill you screen before pressing ALT+O.

    And turn off the FPS Limiter (Options > Graphics)

    Looks like the problem is coming from your GPU.
    The GPU delay is very high there, causing also the CPU to wait for it.

    Can you make sure the game is actually using your Nvidia card?
    In the main menu press HELP, then go to the PERFORMANCE tab.
    Press ALT+O and copy the link you get here.
