    I just upgraded to Experimental, and while I love it, the game causes my brand new PC to blue-screen and/or restart at seemingly random intervals. Any fixes?

    Well without information as to what causes the crashes, nope. No error dumps or anything? Usually its a fault on the users machine, dodgy drivers or the like (coughAMDcough)

    My PC is a custom build with 8gb of RAM, an intel core i5-4670k, and an MSI GTX 570 (carryover from last build, upgrading soon). However, I went into the BIOS, and I found out that the i5 had been overclocked to 4.2 Ghz. After undoing the overclock, experimental doesn't crash anymore. I'm not entirely sure I fixed it yet, but the game works better overall (kind of ironic). Stay tuned.

    Not really that ironic if it was an unstable overclock.

    Well from that information it would have done the same once the processor went under high load (so any application that requires a large amount of processing power), not entirely the fault of BeamNG. I'm Just saying this incase people get the idea that experimental build was to blame for the crash. Nice to see you fixed the problem. :)
