Well my card is hot but nothing unusual, as hot as it gets with other more graphic intensive games, found this though and some are having this problem under Win 7. http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/display/wddm_timeout.mspx. Sounds like a pain in the arse since neither windows or Nvidia will take the blame. Looks like a new drive and a fresh system install for rFactor. Odd it only happens for rFactor as all other games and sims are fine. Knowing my luck it's just some rogue driver floating around my system, like my mother in law at a birthday party. |

Yeah MS7XWDC have my setting the same but was still having the problem, just installed a new drive and system for rFactor only ( didn't even install the G25 Logi drivers ) all up and running well again, must have been a rogue driver (possibly the TrackIR4 as it's probably the only one i didn't check) Still, i'm just glad to be up and running again even if it's only to practice and watch the race replays.  .....T |

Have re installed again but now it is happening in rFactor / no mods / clean install. Seems like a graphics card problem. Still !! was not happening last week and i'm using the same card.
Think i'll pick up another drive and do a new system install for rFactor only and see if that helps, at this stage i have re installed rFactor / graphics drivers / G25 drivers / even did a system restore. Must be something screwed up i'm missing.
Hi, first can I congratulate and thank everyone involved for all your hard work. Getting exactly the same CTD's & then back to game. Don't think it has anything to do with backfires (patch installed) as I just tried driving in 1st gear for a while and it CTD again. Could it be something to do with the steering wheel I'm using (Microsoft sidewinder forcefeedback) as the ffb comes and goes? Sys info is windows 7 HE, ati radeon 4890, amd quad 2.8ghz, 4 gb memory. Thanks |

Well i've done a fresh install for rFactor and everything was fine untill last night. I stupidly installed G25 drivers and TV style instead of installing them one at a time. Now my old problem is back (black screen during race etc)
Wiped the drive as an uninstall did nothing. At a bit of a loss but looks like either the Logi drivers or the TV style is causing the problem. Will also try stepping back my Nvidia drivers to see if there's something there.
Just got it all loaded up again so wil try with an older version of the Logi drivers first. ps using the lgs508_x64 drivers for my G25, anyone else using different ones ?
