I just got a GTX 680 about a week ago. Since I installed the new card (and nVidia's latest WHQL driver [301.42 IIRC]) I've been getting periodic display driver crashes where I lose video signal for a few seconds and the machine then recovers, but my framerates go down to 5-10 fps.
At first I thought I might have a DOA 680, but after hours playing other games (BF3, SC2, League of Legends, etc) and running FurMark burn-in tests I've been unable to replicate the problem. The crashes only seem to happen while running EVE. I've just installed the latest beta driver to see if that helps at all, but I was wondering if anyone else is having the same issue.
Oh, I'm usually triple-boxing in fixed-window mode when it happens, fwiw. |

in my experience Firefox is causing such driver crashes, especially the download window I believe. In any case I could never track down driver crashes to eve. |

I don't use firefox.
Just played several hours worth of BF3 without any issues. I'm puzzled. I guess I'll play some eve tomorrow and see if I can make it happen again. |

You know, maybe that is what's happening for me and other folks with nvidea cards. I described it as the game locking for 30 seconds to a minute. The eve window goes black or freezes. Also often I lose the ability to use the mouse. Then it clears. But it could be as you say.
Unfortunately it keeps occuring more and more often. I posted quite a few times on these threads about this. No it's not my computer. It has no problems otherwise, only while playing eve. I've tried many things. Disabled various things etc.
It would be nice if some dev could respond in one of these threads and acknowledge there is a problem with the game and/or how it is interacting with video cards and drivers. |

nVidia drivers crash on many occassions, not only eve, so I dont think its something eve related. I'm curious when nVidia finally fixes their fuggin drivers. Its better than complete comp freezes like in the case of AMD chips but still very annoying thing. |

I'm having the same problem, but only when multiboxing and only when there are 200+ on grid. The latest set of beta drivers have some funky issue where the mouse pointer goes away, however: http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/win8-win7-winvista-64bit-304.79-beta-driver-uk.html driver set works so far (touch wood) ~ |

I just downloaded what I assumed were the latest betas last night, and I did see something in the release notes about fixing a bug with hardware cursor rendering in some games FWIW. I just checked my download history and 304.79 is indeed what I installed last night. Seems to be working well so far (though I haven't put 3 clients on the same grid full of missles yet today) and I noticed last night that my BF3 framerate is much more consistent / smooth as well, so I guess they fixed their adaptive vsync stutter problem. |

Has it become better?
I just tried this. Downloaded the beta driver. In fact it got worse. Freeze ups occurred more frequently. So the new beta driver did not fix things for me.
These problems started with one of the follow up patches to Inferno. I wish I could remember which one. Something was done with one of them that started the cycle of freeze ups. Little did I know then that the very occasional freeze would become more and more frequent. My worry now is that whatever this problem is has embedded itself in places that are multiplying it's effects and will spillover to anything I do. Even non eve functions.

Odd. I haven't had a single instance since changing to the beta driver. I've been playing a fair amount of EVE as well, so you'd think it would have happened again by now if it was going to. |

I'm using the 301.42 drivers and am/was having this exact problem, and specifically only having it in large fights. SOMETHING I did stopped though. I'm not entirely sure which because the situations which trigger it are unusual and about the worst time ot have your graphics driver crashing. It was some combination of turning my page file back on(woops), and turning off Camera Shake, Ship Explosions, Drone Models, and Trails. I suspect the crashes are being caused by trails but haven't been able to properly test the theory. |

There is something more complex going on. My little laptop with 301.42 has been working fine with that driver and the previous driver i had on it. My desktop started having problems with the version of the nvidia driver I had on it. I then updated to 301.42 and the problems became worse. So i updated to the beta 304.79, and they got even worse.
I've tried getting all game settings the same on both computers. I have disabled windows composition as it was disabled on the lappy, etc. The remaining only differences between the two computers is that the desktop is running vista 32 bit (being older) and has a different nvidia card and mouse/driver, the lappy is running seven 64bit. I mention the mouse because as the problem became worse any mouse movement would seem to trigger it, even docked in station with all effects off (i.e. nothing moving on the screen).
Just in reading all the threads people are reporting similar and different problems with eve and eve alone (like me) with varying systems, operating systems, and video cards. It seems to me that there is something to changes that were made to the patches with inferno around the end of June, beginning of July, that isn't getting along with drivers of all kinds for those of us unlucky enough to have the wrong settings somewhere. I wish CCP would acknowledge that they are aware of a problem that manifested at that time and are working to find and fix it. |

Yup, GTX 680 user here with similar problems since installing the card at the end of April. Initially, the fault occured once a week, but since around July 13th it has been happening pretty much every day (see below for windows Action Center problem details report). All drivers are up to date, 12MB RAM, i7 x980 @ 3.98 GHz, Win 7 Pro (64 bit), one monitor, usually two clients running, but nothing else gfx taxing.
Normally running at 60 FPS on both clients but after fault occurs, the FPS is up and down like a yo-yo. I end up having to dock up, log out and restart my PC. I honestly don't know if Eve has anything to do with this or if it is a case of bugged gfx card drivers, but it really annoying

I bought an EVGA GeForce 560Ti as this is the very one recommended and in fact promoted and given away by CCP for optimal display in Eve. WRONG! I run Win7 32 bit, 3Gb RAM, AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6000+, 550w PSU. I replaced my superbly reliable 8800gts with this piece of garbage. The Nvidia 296.10 drivers that I installed then crashed every 30 minutes or so no matter what I'm doing, game or not. Eve looked hideously mangled, gfx all over the shop, tearing and spikes and gods know what. I rolled back to version 280.26 and tweaked the GPU with EVGA Precision X, lowering the GPU volts and frequency to something like an 8800. This sorted it for a while but now it's broken again. Maybe it's the hot weather? No, the monitoring shows it running at 34 degs C. So now, I tried the latest nVidia drivers - 301.42 - and it's even more broken in Eve. Nasty fizzling pixelation, tearing, etc. I'm about to install the beta drivers 304.79 for Win 7 32 bit. I suspect it will still be a total fail.
So thanks CCP for recommending a duff GFX card. I think I'll go back to my 8800. Ugh. |

This has been a recurring issue for years now. I thought I had it nailed down to a version of Firefox running and showing Flash video but that was ages ago now, so it wasn't that.
The only reliable solution I ever found was to turn off the Aero interface in Windows 7 - either that or run Eve full-screen rather than fixed window, which isn't really any sort of solution if you multibox.
Its nothing to do with NVidia drivers - NVidia looked at this years ago IIRC and said the driver crash wasn't triggered by the Eve executable.
I still think its something to do with Flash and web browsers running in the background. |

Regardless, maybe they are working on it. With the last patch to the singularity client my desktop was able to run it somewhat better. The freeze ups occurred less often and were associated to obvious video processing events, like undocking. However, some were assciated with market calls. Don't know how that could be video card related.
Would still really like some announcement on one of these threads that CCP is aware they have a problem and are working on it. |

Random system freezes have been seriously bugging me now for weeks. Never had a problem with EVE before. I updated everything - but nothing seemed to work. I, like others in this thread, had a feeling it was somehow Flash related.
So rather than updating Flash at the first opportunity I uninstalled the latest version and rolled back to 11.2.202.235 plug-in (Firefox), the version released before my PC started locking up...
...and my system has been stable now for over a week - no crashes at all (fingers crossed), even when running two clients. Hope this 'fix' will work for you guys too

I'm having problems as well with EvE some along the same lines with you guys. I noticed the problem started after the 1.2.4 Inferno patch last Tuesday. My graphics card is a Geforce GTX 560M and I've tried using the last WHQL driver released in May to the latest beta driver that has come out. The only difference in my problem is that my entire system will freeze and I have to hard restart my laptop by holding down the power button for a couple seconds. |

just wanted to chip in: same problems here, Win7/64, nVidia GTX 570, non-beta 301.42, 2 clients, 2 displays: intermittent freezes, sometimes windows is able to recover it, mostly not.
downgrading the graphics in eve doesn-¦t help, even in "low"-settings the machine freezes.
wait, see, hope...

Can only recommend the beta driver 304.79. Fixed all the issues for me. Did not for me. My desktop is still fubarred for eve with that driver. Meawhile my laptop keeps motoring fine with 301.42. Sadly, the problem, whatever it is, is not as simple as a which driver version.
I'm experimenting with the flash player active x version suggestion itt above. Can't seem to get my desktop to load the old version for the active x. It loaded the plugin for that version fine though. ******* computers, can't live with them can't live without them. Well you can but it would mean no eve. |

I haven't played since about the End of June.
Decided to renew my sub and play some more. . .low and behold I can't even undock the game runs so slow.
I used to run at max settings and it was silky smooth, now even if I set everything to low/disabled I barely push 10fps no matter where I am in game.
This sucks. At this rate, it's nothing but a $15 waste on my end. |

Same issue running a GTX 670.
Screen goes black and looks like it's about to minimise and freezes for 4-5 seconds. Once I come back it's stuck at 30fps.
I find docking up and resetting the Interval setting between different options before going back to the top one (interval immediate i think it's called?) seem to fix the framerate issue. Happens once every 1-2 hours for me, only in Eve no other games / programs. |

I've been getting the same issue, though my hardware (also NVIDIA) is much more old-school than yours, and I don't multi-instance (because, with all due respect, I think that's quite lame).
My server logs give lots of "Timeslice warning," whatever that is, and a full client un-install/re-install didn't help any, also getting this on SiSi, plus all kinds of errors.
Also latest drivers, I've actually rolled them back to a few older ones just in case, but no change. It's only started happening since 1.2.6, and my bug report --with server logs and DxDiags-- seems to be being ignored.
Advise please, someone?
Because EVE is essentially unplayable for me at the moment. Meta-gaming for carebears:
Whine on the forums like a little ***** until CCP gets sick of you and hands you everything you ask for just to shut you up. |

EDIT- And if anyone from CCP is still monitoring this subforum please post SOMETHING Well, flash switcheroo did not work either. Regardless, still can run only one very intermitent full-screen client on the desktop (whereas before I could run two clients windowed quite well). About the only thing the one very intermittent client is good for is in station activities or mining. And even then any mouse movement can set off a freeze. Oddly, if I don't move the mouse it doesn't seem to freeze. But then if you don't move the mouse you're not really doing much. |

This happens to me too and I was wondering what changed recently. Apparently nothing, it only happens in EVE, since one of the Inferno updates. I also tried disabling video options, nothing helps. Occasionally (it's not related to how many on grid, I am mostly lonely is low-sec systems) the screen locks up, then Windows recovers and says the video drivers crashed. Then I can continue to play. But it's frustrating when it happens and I have a several-bil ship+fittings out in space and out of control.
I am running a single full-screen EVE instance on a 32-bit Win7 with a GeForce 8800 GTS card. And I have the latest (non-beta) drivers. |

just a quick update (and to keep the thread on the first page *g*):
updated to beta 306.2 - yes, that was better /sarcasm: because the system froze completely. got back to 301.42 and got me a long indexfinger to reach the reset-button on my machine...

I just bought a GTX 670 and I keep having this same issue. I get a black screen for about 10 seconds, then it recovers and I have less than 20 FPS until I restart my clients.
I'm DL'ing the 304.79 drivers right now, but just noticed that there is an even newer beta on the site now too. Has anyone tried the 306 drivers? |

The following any help? This only happens in EVE.
kd> !analyze -v ******************************************************************************* * * * Bugcheck Analysis * * * *******************************************************************************
THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER_M (100000ea) The device driver is spinning in an infinite loop, most likely waiting for hardware to become idle. This usually indicates problem with the hardware itself or with the device driver programming the hardware incorrectly. If the kernel debugger is connected and running when watchdog detects a timeout condition then DbgBreakPoint() will be called instead of KeBugCheckEx() and detailed message including bugcheck arguments will be printed to the debugger. This way we can identify an offending thread, set breakpoints in it, and hit go to return to the spinning code to debug it further. Because KeBugCheckEx() is not called the .bugcheck directive will not return bugcheck information in this case. The arguments are already printed out to the kernel debugger. You can also retrieve them from a global variable via "dd watchdog!g_WdBugCheckData l5" (use dq on NT64). On MP machines it is possible to hit a timeout when the spinning thread is interrupted by hardware interrupt and ISR or DPC routine is running at the time of the bugcheck (this is because the timeout's work item can be delivered and handled on the second CPU and the same time). If this is the case you will have to look deeper at the offending thread's stack (e.g. using dds) to determine spinning code which caused the timeout to occur. Arguments: Arg1: 867dd5c8, Pointer to a stuck thread object. Do .thread then kb on it to find the hung location. Arg2: 872a4148, Pointer to a DEFERRED_WATCHDOG object. Arg3: f7b21cb4, Pointer to offending driver name. Arg4: 00000001, Number of times "intercepted" bugcheck 0xEA was hit (see notes).

The 304.79 beta drivers have fixed this for me. Played for hours today without crashes. |

OMG eve is beautiful again and not a giant frustration. Well, at long last I seem to have fixed my eve problem.
I think there is something with eve that wasn't getting along with the drivers and may have somehow corrupted them. But my laptop never encountered the problem, while my desktop did. I have no idea what it was that I did with eve on my desktop that I haven't done with my laptop (other than eve-voice, or ui scaling, or ts overlay). Whatever it was, though it fubared something with the driver. Even when I would download a new driver the problem would remain and even get worse.
Somehow in trying to update drivers since the problems started, I recently disabled my drivers.
So what I did with the latest driver update, 306.23, was I downloaded it to desktop. Then I shut down the computer and disconnected power cord.
Then I disconnected the power cable to the video card and unseated the card from the motherboard. Then reseated it and reconnected the power cable.
After bootup, I went to programs and features and uninstalled everything nvidea. One program would not unstall until after I restarted (again).
So then after restart, since I had already downloaded the new driver to desktop, I double clicked the nvidia driver version 306.23 to install it, and checked advanced option and then checked "do a clean install." It then installed the new drivers.
Whatever driver settings that may have been sitting in the system and had been fubarred by whatever eve settings or something I had done in or with eve must have either been cleaned out or overwritten with the reinstallation of the card and clean install of the driver. My desktop is happily running eve again as it used to.
I suggest folks that are not using nvidia try a similar method with their ATI drivers. Hopefully they have the ability to disable their drivers, unseat and reinstall their video card, do a clean install on their new driver.
I am quite reticent to mess with any display settings I currently have in eve and won't be using eve voice again or ts overlay or changing the ui scaling for fear that something with changing eve features or an addon voice display from ts can lead to some driver and card problem. If the freezing problem starts to occur again though I won't just ignore it at first if it is minor but take it as a warning that it could get worse and try to report what occurred just prior to the first event, in the hope that it helps CCP pinpoint what might be at the root of these freezing problems.
I hope this help others that have been having problems. o7 |

I believe crashes caused after eve updates might as well be related to your gfx card drivers. Try some more reading around internet forums and look into which driver suits you best, or for the least which drivers run better with EVE online.
This link here might help you:
nVidia drivers legacy & beta
But sticking with the latest driver(s) might not always be the best solution, for everyone, everyday.
Hope this helps.

I also have a GTX 670 but fortunately my screen only goes black for about 5 secs. The 30fps drop is easily fixed by opening and closing the (Esc)settings menu twice.

Hello everyone.
I returned to EVE from about 2 years of non-gaming and brought my gf with me (i am surprised myself that she likes EVE a lot, although she is not a gamer at all). So i installed EVE on both of my machines.
Now i play EVE on my MacBook Pro and it runs great. I also play EVE on my PC with nVidia's 9800GT (1024 video ram) and with 4gb ram and the game crashes 1-2 times an hour. I tried repair tool, all settings max, all settings low, tried windows and fullscreen modes, safe and normal EVE mode, tried newest and those beta drivers from nVidia and i still get the same problem. For me those crashes are always one of these types: Blue screen crash, Hang up and app quit crash (then even the mouse is super lagy for 2-3 secs), game hang up but back to normal in 1 min, socket closed + UI super unresponsive ( may be due to poor connection sometimes). So i struggle with all these crashes and i must restart 1-2 times in one hour. If anybody found a solution, maybe you can share.
Since i am game developer myself i will not criticize EVE developers, this must be some ****** deep issue with someone updating something (may be from nVidia's side or EVE side). But his issue is rather frustrating nevertheless.
Since i see so many people having this issue i hope it will get solved fast.
Good luck everyone! |

After todays post i tried playing EVE with my gf. The crashes were getting more common and in the end i could barely play 5 mins in space. Lost my raven today Also my MacBook crashed too! It just stuck and i had to hard reset it (keep holding power) to shut it off, since nothing was working for more than 10 mins!
I am starting to regret buying 90 days pilot license and i do hope i get a fix.
I will try getting anything i can from my PC crashes and sending it to CCP, dunno how to do that yet but i'll google it. |

Had two freezes and one instance of the display driver crashing without recovery over the last three days (Windows 7 x64, GTX 680). Only noticeable change: I used Eve Voice during these Windows sessions (e.g. for the Mass Test; usually not using it), sometimes during an earlier Eve session. Main audio is running on a Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic, voice on a Logitech G110 Keyboard.
So, in case you experience crashes and you're using Eve Voice, try without it. Looking for more thoughts? Read http://aethlyn.blogspot.com/ or follow me on http://twitter.com/Aethlyn. |

Hey all, I wanted to contribute to this thread of stress!!!!
I currently run: AMD FX-8120 Asus M5A97 Evo Motherboard Sapphire AMD RADEON HD 7970 (primary x16 slot) Sapphire AMD RADEON HD 7870 (secondary x16 slot - x4 mode i presume) 16GB Corsair Vengeance RAM (1600MHz) Windows 7 X64 -fully updated 2x 1TB HDD 1x OCZ Vertex 4 SSD 3 monitors
The reason I have that is because I replaced this trying to diagnose my driver crashes: AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE Gigabyte GA-970A-D3 Motherboard Nvidia GTX 570 SOC (I sent it back for RMA twice, got brand new cards both times... so THREE GTX 570 SOCs have been tried) 8GB Kingston value RAM rest SHOULD BE irrelevant...
I have tried formatting, reinstalling windows, motherboard drivers, and video drivers (on both AMD cards and Nvidia). I have disabled/enabled all bios settings, tried all bios versions, all driver versions for my video cards (Both AMD and Nvidia).
I can run 1 client of Eve fine, although i will see white spots and artifacts here and there, no crashing tho. 2 clients - sometimes OK, sometimes video crashes... I play World of Tanks. This game crashes EVERY time if I have Eve loaded - to a point where I need to power off the computer and restart. I can play XCOM: Enemy Unknown just fine with Eve, although both must be full screen windowed, otherwise if I minimize one and restore, i get artifacts. I have even had the drivers crash 3 times in a row right after a fresh reboot of windows. I can run BF3 flawlessly for several hours...
It seems to be a problem with utilizing multiple tasks that require video card's attention... I have searched for MONTHS and spent $1000 diagnosing this BS, and NO ONE knows the solution... I am thoroughly convinced it is a Windows problem. They would NEVER admit it, but i think Microsoft is the culprit. About a year and a half ago, I NEVER had this problem, so some update since then has ROYALLY F*CKED UP our stuff.
I can tolerate a few bugs here and there, but I did NOT spend $1500 on a computer to have it crash constantly for over a year! It is not CCPs fault, however, maybe CCP can help us little guys by informing the BIG guys that we are having issues. If these problems continue much longer, I am gonna pack up the computer and go console gaming, because this is just ridiculous. And of course, if we ditch computers for consoles, CCP will lose big money - hence why they should be VERY concerned that their customers are having problems with hardware that is supposed to run Eve flawlessly - on MULTIPLE clients, EVEN if it is not their fault. |

Spent most of the Summer away from Eve and when I return I find this issue happening every 5-10 minutes... I vaguely recall it happening before when jumping (fixed) or when Eve had to make a call to the database for a ship my client hadn't drawn in ages (like a Sin in HS) tonight while just doing routine logistics moving basic blah ships and fittings it froze up whenever I had more than one inventory window open or when I typed something in chat....
I'm not convinced its 100% an Eve problem, but since I ran tonight mostly on 1 client I will make an effort to see if I can eliminate other drains on the computer from other programs until its just eve.. then if it still happens, I'll update this post.
Hopefully the devs will have a look at this thread... atm this isn't a crippling issue, but it sure is annoying and distracting.

I am sorry CCP but I can no longer play EVE until this problem is resolved. Four times out of Five after jumping through a gate my monitor will turn itself off and then back on as my graphics driver crashes. It also happens at other times as well but mainly when jumping through gates.
All the other games that I play on this computer seem fine so until this is fixed I am off to play one of them as I have no choice EVE is not playable in its current state for me.

Interesting that this issue helps some but not others and not a peep from CCP. |
