BSOD and now save game is missing

Peteorama

Hey guys, I've been suffering with a few Blue Screen of Death 's while playing. Never had this problem before with gaming.

The STOP code is 0x00000101

Anyway, I had just recently saved my game when I was hit with another BSoD, restarted the comp and loaded up the game but my Freedom save wasn't showing. I went and looking in the files and the save game folder 0003 is still there with all the files inside, but it's not showing or available to play from the game menu.

Any suggestions on how to get this save back?

Also for anyone with any info relating to the BSoD here's my pc spec:

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770k CPU @ 3.50GHz
RAM: 16332 megabytes
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
GPU RAM: 1988 megabytes
OS: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (6.1.7601) 64bit
Threads: 8 logical processors
Version: 43604
Build Date: 1/25/2017 10:02:03 AM

All drivers updated and I made the save game in question after the most recent update.

Thanks in advance!

Run a chkdsk on the drive Subnautica is stored on. Instructions are in my sig below ▼ if you need them.

Thanks I'll give that a try.
I ended up accidentally deleting my save as it was showing up as a damaged survival game mode even though I was playing freedom. So I started a new freedom mode after failing to find the deleted save files. The same BSOD has happened and although I haven't deleted the game file this time around, when I reloaded the damaged file It's in Survival mode... I wonder if anyone knows what in the save game data files specifies what game mode the save file is. Would really like to not have to start again and again..

You can switch modes using the console:

Ah brilliant, thank you. I've been running the chkdisk in the time since my last post, had no idea it would take that long lol.

At least with your console workaround i should be able to keep myself in freedom mode even if the pc keeps getting taken down by BSOD lol I'm just going to keep saving every time I do something useful and make backups of my save game!

If you have an SSD, move Subnautica to that. Right-click Subnautica in Steam, > Properties > Local Files > Move Install Folder

That might help a little. Also you could try defragmenting (good for regular hard disk but *NOT* if it's an SSD, SSDs don't need defrag and it actually uses up their write cycles for no reason).
