I recently formatted all of my drives do to some crashing problems and after doing my base installations I can't open wow due to error 132, which crashes the game immediately before opening.

ERROR #132 (0x85100084) Fatal exception!

Program f:\World of Warcraft\Wow-62.exe
ProcessID: 1740
Exception: 0xC000001D (ILLEGAL_INSTRUCTION) at 000007fedafddcb5


I've looked all over the place for ways to fix this and none have worked. Please help if you have any idea how to fix this!

Thanks everyone!

Are you running it from a USB?

I am not, it is a fresh install on an empty SSD


Edit: My DWM opens immediately on boot "Desktop Windows Manager stopped working and has closed"

#132 I'm pretty sure is related to your graphics.

I assume you've already installed your latest updates for your GPU?

Maybe if you can uninstall it and revert to a previously released driver and try that.

I'll go back and test it with each of the previous versions.

Just recently went up to NVIDA 361.43 after experiencing problems with 353.06 and the GeForce experience with not updating correctly.

I will post again later on once i've reverted.

Which OS are you trying to run WoW on?

Windows 7. After reinstalling my base 960 drivers everything worked fine.. after talking to a few friends they also had an issue with crashes after updating to the lastest NVIDA drivers.

Thanks for the help!
