This post describes how I fixed crashes with Fallout 4 with the event name “LiveKernelEvent” when playing with an AMD GPU.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I found that after playing Fallout for a couple minutes it would crash. This would typically either crash to desktop (CTD) or the entire graphics driver would kill the computer. This would require a reboot to fix it.<\/p>\n
This meant I was unable to play Fallout on my PC which was annoying. I have captured two of the errors logs below.<\/p>\n

To fix the issue you can modify the settings file located at
C:\\Users\\[username]\\Documents\\My Games\\Fallout4\\Fallout4.ini<\/code>.<\/p>\nIn this file make sure these settings are set as below. Search for the string before the equals to find them.<\/p>\n
bSAOEnable=0\r\nsAntiAliasing=<\/pre>\nThese settings turn off Anti Aliasing and\u00a0Ambient Occlusion, after these were disabled I was able to start and run Fallout 4 as expected.<\/p>\n
