TG3 crashing

mhaze · May 25, 2015, 06:36:10 AM

Just updated nvidia drivers and this makes TG crash with mouse movements. I remenber a thread about this but I can't find it. As I remember it changing some of the display setting helps. Trouble is I can't remember which

Can anyone help?

Just realized it crashes mainly on exiting a render!

I remember allright, had the same problem. But I reverted back to the older drivers, I believe. Long ago, so I don't exactly remember. Can't help you any further, sorry.

I remember that and it was the reason I never upgraded my video card...

Does it crash with *any* mouse movement? Only in the 3D preview, or anywhere?

If you have the capability in the nVidia control panel to adjust settings per-application, see if you can reduce acceleration settings. If you don't have per-application settings, you can try reducing overall Graphics Acceleration, which may be in Windows Settings or the nVidia control panel, depending on the configuration.

It seems to crash only when stopping a render part way after clicking stop and then stop again on the popup message window and only with complex renders!

Weird, it only happens on one picture!

Even wierder, it's ok now!

Judging from my experience it will be back,don't worry.

You are so reassuring

Hmm, well at least it seems to be isolated (for the moment). Perhaps you could send the TGD to support AT planetside.co.uk and we can try to reproduce it...

I seem to have cured it messing around in the nvida control panel by changing acceleration settings - so definitely a driver problem as the pic no longer crashes. It wasn't just one pic either in the end I was able to get others to crash.
