Folks

I am running Prepar at 4.4

Has anyone had any experience with 417.35 and 4.4?

Alternatively, can anyone give me a fairly late driver version that they are have success with on Prepar 4.4

Appreciate any assistance.

Cheers

Why not just try it? You can easily go back if you have any issues. What works on one CPU/MB/GPU combination may not work on another so asking for recommendations is only really valid if you have an identical system and software. You only need to look back at the similar topics where one person praises a driver only for others to say that it caused them problems.

I am running 417.35 and am having some issues.

Just wanting to know if others are experiencing any problems.

Probably did not explain myself that well.  Sorry.

Thanks for the response folks.

So glad 417.35 is treating you well 'Mulgrave'

I hold my head in shame!

I did a clean install of 417.35 with DDU.  Dumped the Shaders folder but forgot to delete the cfg!!

Since done that and I have been flying for 45mins without a hitch.

Not holding my breath but it is looking ok.

I know about deleting the shader cache, but wasn't aware there was a .cfg file we were to delete after updating our video drivers.  I have only ever deleted shaders and have never had a single issue.  Can someone please please clarify?

Yes, I'm curious why  a cfg needs deleting after a driver update. Is that official L-M guidance? And which cfg? There are several.

While I don't delete the cfg file, I edit it and delete the [DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA.....] prior to running P3D after a new driver update is done. This removes a lot of unexplained issues that sometimes occur when this step is not done.

Neither do I. I'd love to know the reasoning behind that decision.

Allow me to attempt to explain this, folks.

It is all rather embarrassing!

I did the 4.4 Client update only.  Flushed the Shaders and deleted the p3d.cfg, as I believe you should.

The following day, I decided to do ‘Content’ for 4.4.

I did NOT do shaders and the .cfg.

I think this is possibly where I erred.

Since that time, I have had Blue Screens, CTD’s, NTDLL’s abound all pointing to Drivers.

As my vid driver was rather old, I suspected that and updated to the latest release 417.35.  I flushed the Shaders but continued to have all above mentioned errors.

For some reason, I also decided to delete the p3d.cfg file as well. 

Reasoning can often lead to odd things at my age!!

 

As already hinted at, on reflection, I believe that it is not necessary to delete the cfg file on a driver change, only Shaders.

Well I did delete the cfg and I think that is what I should have done after the ‘Content’ upgrade.

I guess that is luck but comes with considerable embarrassment.

 

On the positive side, I have just completed a 2 hour flight YBBN-YMML without a hint of any sys problems.

I am happy and my apologies for confusing the ‘masses’.

Not a problem at all, my friend.  This is a place for learning.  Enjoy!
