Still no response from CCP? Waiting for HD3870 to age is ridiculous, although they have just been superceded by a new model, the cards themselves are still virtually new to market. It's shameful that CCP have not acknowledged this issue and given an explanation to customers.
Flying around in 0.0 with an ATI 3870 (and it seems the 48xx class) is a complete deathtrap. Rebooting and hoping you are still alive when you log back in is such a regular occurance, and has been he cause of so many lost ships that I've had to take the cards out of my new pc and use a 2 year old nvidia card.

ive been getting the lock up, hard boot issue also. tried bug reports and petitions and no help past update drives and its not an eve problem its your hardware responce.
had less isues in classic than premium, but still got the lock ups. totally randomly at stations, in mission, at gates
changing card from a saphire 4870x2 to a gigabyte model.. thank god they took it back when it tested 100% problem free at 7days old. set up gigabyte ma790x-ds4 mobo sapphire 4870x2 8gz corsair ram amd dual core 3gz processer played at top res
used to play on a laptop with an ati radeon mobility 64mb in.. never had an issue. shame it's mobo popped

Hey dunno if this helps but check if your problem isn't related to a memory address issue.
Some crossfire / sli cards usually have that problem and it can be solved either by client or driver patching. _____________________________________

ive been running latest drivers. ive reinstalled windows every time a new cataylist driver has come out. all north and south brige drivers are the newest. not had an issue with any game other than eve. some times i get 8 hours straight. then 3 lock ups in 20mins. some days its every 10mins or so. done memory checks, done gpu checks done cpu checks. everything in system is monitered. cant get a log file as its hard boot only after it happens.

Can we have an update from CCP to:
* Acknowledge the issue. * Explain their findings to-date. * Suggest temporary workarounds (if any). * Confirm an expected fix-date for this defect.
I'm getting more than a bit annoyed at having 2 very expensive graphics cards sitting on my desk.

I had the same problem with my 2600 hd. I downloaded an overclocking utility, set my fan to on 100% of the time and slightly underclocked my graphics card and now it happens maybe once a day. Not an ideal solution but as I was at my wits end it works for me.

Had a very simular problem tried the new sound/video drivers, fresh OS install etc. finally resolved by loading the Register 55 fix (look it up) Basicly some CPU/MB/vid card combo's trigger a vid crash when Register 55 is locked open - this was a problem with some games back in '02/'03 which ATI/Nv issued fixes for - there has been a recent suggestion the as the OS and MB tech has moved on the fix has been dropped from recent drivers - not sure if its accurate just know it fixed it for me...............
good luck

Me too, as per Lyria for several months. One way to work around it is to never see gate flashes - fly betweens systems in map mode. I've been doing that for a few months (obviously I never gatecamp) and it's fine.
XP SP3 AMD X2 3800+ Powercolor Radeon AGP 3850
I've tried several drivers, sound, etc. No problems in other games, ever. Happens roughly 1 in 10 gateflashes, no difference between premium / classic, no difference with all effects on / off and it only occurs when you see (or would see) a gateflash. Render depth and stencil settings do not fix it. Forced AA off doesn't fix it.
I'll keep bumping this thread until it's fixed. It's not a driver issue. It's a CCP issue. I have never had this card crash playing any other game including games that use cards strangely (eg. Doom 3).

Nice, were you actually using a 38xx card and having the gatefire issue as described? There are a ton of people in here describing completely separate issues.
If so, this could be promising for anyone still having the actual issue. Anyone tried it?

I have nearly the same system (better CPU) and a HIS AGP 3850. I get it on gate fires as well. Card runs GREAT on all other games in XP with no issues except in EVE. Good thing I've got a Mac, which runs the client nearly flawlessly. In the meantime, I've shoved my ATI X1650 back in (YUCK) which exhibits no issues.

Edited by: michelle lavite on 13/11/2008 16:22:15 Just tried Quantum rise and I can report that it is working with my ATI X3850 AGP graphics card. I've gone through 30 gates so far and no lockups or problems. I did remove ALL drivers and reloaded the latest version I could find. It looks like they may have tweaked the way gate jumps work to slow them down or reorder the unloading/loading of 3D objects. I don't care as long as it works. I'll keep playing this version and report if I have any more problems, but for now ALL IS GOOD! 
I should add, I've run premium, regular, changed cache values etc, but I am NOT running HDR or bloom, just shadows on premium on the moment. Still no problems.

My 4870 kept crashing minutes after I logged in. I solved this by returning the card and buying a GTX280. Last ATI card I had was the 9800 pro which had problems with overheating. I heard so many good things about the 4870, plus the price, that I thought I'd give ATI another chance. Guess I'll wait another good 5 years before I do that again.

Edited by: michelle lavite on 15/11/2008 17:59:45 Hmm, looks like I may have spoken too soon. I'm back on premium and I have had a few "lockups" on gate fires. It's much better and seems to resolve itself, but I can't say the problem is really gone since I've seen it 4 times today. I'm going to switch back to UGLY mode and see if it happens in there.
One side note, I did bump the cache from OFF to HIGH (I've got memory to burn) and that's when the trouble started.
EDIT: First things first, I've just shut the cache off. After that I'll try UGLY mode (non-premium GFX).

I've had the same issue since they released trinity, it's stopped me using two accounts and lots of my friends have had the same problem. I've reported it a few times but it just falls on deaf ears as it seems CCP doesn't use ATI cards so cannot reproduce it, the one time they did reproduce it the testers machine got upgraded and it stopped happening to him so they stopped bothering about it and closed the report.
It's a bit of a fingers in the ears and go lalalala bug to them I think

I have an nvidia the 8600 to be specific. and since QR I've had to hard reboot my computer due to it locking up completely. It has something to do with on eof the open clients undocking, docking or jumping. I run 2 eves most of time. with just 1 client up it happens less, but still happens. One of those times was this morning so after the latest patch that sais they fixed an issue like this.

Edited by: Molly Mayhem on 26/11/2008 21:54:51 I'm having exactly the same problem (frequent crashes near gates & when using a gate).
4870x2, catalyst 8.11 Vista 64 SB X-Fi (auzen prelude, latest drivers)
At this point I basically can't leave the station to play, since I crash 70% of the time when using a gate. This is ridiculous.

And the same thing is happening to me, always at the gates, though it just takes the game down with a recovery attempt, rather than nuking the whole system.
Core2Quad Q9550 HD4870x2 Asus P5Q3 mobo Vista64
Can anyone confirm whether this happens with a GTX280?

CCP are such liars. The bug team told me they attached it to a bug and basically confirmed the issue. THAT WAS MONTHS AGO. It would be ****ing nice to atleast get a ****ing update on the issue, if it is getting fixed or if it is just going to get ignored so we can just go buy new grafic cards just so we can play eve. ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise |

Good to know I'm not the only one with this issue... They blamed it on the cache in my case... I mean... I get the hang ups like EVERYONE else (I have a 3870), and there is a giant gaping memory hole which no one seems to notice (I can leave my ship docked and not touch my computer for less than 1 hour, and the game's RAM usage still doubles from when it was started)... I love this game, but the ignorance of the fact that things are broken and have been for a long time is... Well, juvenile and stupid come to mind.
