Early-exit trap crash in main menu GTA5_b3258.exe+1028

What is the issue you’re having?

I haven’t played the game for a couple of months and decided to log in, but it goes into my fivem and after 30 seconds it crashes with the error below

What have you tried already to fix the issue?

I tried updating the video card drivers, installed C++ drivers, reinstalled Rockstar Games, cleared the cache, set the disk memory settings in the menu, tried changing versions and nothing helped, and checked the GTA 5 files

Do a deep scan of your machine with Malwarebytes https://www.malwarebytes.com/. Make sure you actually do a deep scan. Next to the “Scan” option you will have 3 dots click on them and click advance. A quick scan will take around 5 minutes, while the deep scan will take around 30+ mins.

didn’t help bro

Okay, and you are sure you did a deep scan? Just confirming.
Intel’s CPU can trigger Early Exit Trap. Mostly these variations of the CPU 13700K, 13900K, 14700K, 14900K. If you get very unlucky it might happen on 13600k and 14600k. But you have 9400 which I don’t think can trigger EET but this is FiveM afterall so please check the BIOS. I will link you a post where someone had the same issue look through this reply.

I understand that I need to update the BIOS?

Yeah. Check what motherboard you have and check online for the newest version.

Didn’t help, maybe try reinstalling GTA 5?

Do you have cheats on your PC? I’m not a cfx.re employee or anything so I don’t care if you do. But having any form of cheats can trigger EET

no, I don’t have cheats and I’ve never used them because everything worked before I didn’t play for literally 2 months and everything stopped working

reinstalled GTA didn’t help


and sometimes my last numbers change: 1050 or 1028 or something else
