Unable To Run P3Dv2.1 - Constant Soft Boot

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

Wow, I can't believe this will not run on my computer. I started with P3D's update after removing the required folders / files in P3D2.0. When that didn't work, I uninstalled everything from windows and started with a complete P3D2.1 full install.

 

Here is what happens:

 

P3Dv2.1 will not run on my setup at all, it almost immediately locks up (when getting to the runway) and causes a system reboot. I get the following message when the computer restarts.

So, now I am in the process of erasing the O/S, wiping the drives and starting from scratch. Waiting on L/M for reactivation of my license. If that don't work, don't know what I'll end up doing.

 

Waited many years for this day, and yet I have to keep waiting. damn!

Mike,

 

Before doing that, did you try CCLeaner?  wiping the registry? I found after uninstalling there were still quite a few LM folders in Program Data, My Documents, etc....

 

I have a "lesser" system than yours and it runs beautifully on mine.

This sounds suspiciously like a bad overclock of CPU or video card, or maybe a dying video card.  Have you tried disabling any overclocks you're doing?

The error code 116 in the crash report definitely indicates a video card problem. Either the GPU hardware itself, or failure or corruption of the driver.

Hi,

 

Seems to run fine on one monitor, I don't get it, tried two different sets of drivers.

Mike, have you tried seating the card in a different PCIE slot and using the alternate set of PEG power connectors (preferably directly from the power supply). I'd also try a clean reinstall of the Nvidia drivers.

BCCode 116 is a unrecoverable BSOD related to the video driver and shows up with a number of 3D apps. What nVidia driver version are you using? Have you changed the default 3D settings with nVidia Inspector? Since it runs fine on one monitor at 1920 x 1080, it might just be the multiple monitors causing the issue.

 

The only other thing that I wondered about is that LM tinkered with the SLI code in 2.1 and they might have done something to bork your 690.  I would open a support ticket with LM, if the suggestions above don't help.
