System Trouble Shooting Thread.

[pupaxx]

@Tree_uk,
thx, those are things that drive me crazy, why two guys with the same machine have so different experiences. Time ago I was tempted to upgrade my machine and your specs were my target! I think I'll keep my rig as it is for a while.
last thing...your OS I think is a 64bit (according to your amount of RAM), XP or Win7?
Cheers

Tree have you tried a different system. Arent you a system builder>? Or at the least rebuilding your system and maybe trying some different hardware to try narrow down the issue.

Ive just realised I had some windows performance counters stop working in my system from one of the many updates that every software vendor wants to throw at your system these days and I cant for the life of me work out how to fix it and Im a pretty advanced system and registry tweaker & troubleshooter.

Ive tried rebuilding the counters, reinstalling all the .net software and something has just simply screwed some of my windows performance counters. (which I use for some monitoring of various things.)

Tree youve been around PCs long enough to know that sometimes problems dont show up until certain conditions occur which can be very hard to pinpoint sometimes! So even though everything else in your system is working fine, it doesnt mean there cant be something broken somewhere! My system runs everything fine without CTDs but yet my performance counters inexplicably stopped working without any other signs of problems.

Yes i agree, as for building different systems, this is the third build I have had personally since CLOd came out, also i have built many systems for squad members using various specs from i5's to i7's according to the individuals budgets, the only common denominator between all the systems I have built as been nvidia graphics cards, at the buyers request.



* note, when i swapped the video card from a 3GB GTX580 to a 2GB GTX680 pre patch I could fly for a lot longer online before I got the launcher CTD, since the Alpha my CTD's have gone back to normal*

I have almost same spec pc as tree and I have not had a CTD since patch. I have slight stutter but that is the grass tree problem and I refuse to reduce graphics settings from full and I live with it for now.

Do something useful and submit your logs to 1c as they request and get on with playing this game or not.

Don't bother with a comeback, just post your logs as a silent protest.
