Why Did “Assertion Failure” Error Occurred On FiveM?
You may have become interested in FiveM due to its multiplayer feature and You have already installed it on your PC.

If you are indeed getting that then there might be a few reasons for it so there is no need to panic as you will be able to understand them when you follow this guide.
1.Your PC Memory Is Full
If you are seeing a message where the error says Assertion failure and Allocate memory then that means your system can not run that programme on the memory that is there in your PC.
While running a programme the pc will need to have a certain amount of storage for it to function properly.
If you cannot allocate that storage then FiveM will not run on your computer.
2.Your Driver Is Too Old
Another reason can be that your driver is of an old version whereas your graphics card and the PC is new.
In that case you have to upgrade your driver.
You can not run a programme if you are using the latest graphics card whereas your driver remains the old model.
3. Driver Not Installed In PC

First, you have to make sure of the fact that your Driver is installed properly in your system, which will help you to make your Graphics card run programmes.
Without having a Driver installed your system will not be able to run any games on your PC.
2. Upgrade Your Driver To The Latest Version
You have to also make sure that you have the latest version of the driver installed if you are using a brand new PC and the latest graphics card model.
Both your Driver and your graphics card should be the latest version if they are going to run FiveM in that case.
In many situations the assertion error occurs because either the Driver is an old version whereas the graphics card is of the latest model and vice versa.
As soon as you upgrade your driver the issue should get resolved by itself.
3. Provide Enough Storage Space To FiveM

If you have no space left where you have installed it then try to uninstall it and then reinstall it by putting it in a disk that has enough space.
