    Kernel mode driver

    Hello,

    I love the game but the constant crashing makes it near impossible to play.
    I can play for about 15-20 mins and then it crashes out, back to the uplay launcher and i can send a crash report (which i constantly do).
    I have a Nvidia GTX 770, i5-3570K @ 3.40GHz, 8gig ram, 2 harddrives in raid0 setup.

    This is the only game this happens in.

    So i been getting the following error:

    Display driver stopped responding and has recovered.
    Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, version 364.51 stopped responding and has successfully recovered.


    I have tried an older driver which didn't help


    So far i have also tried:
    - Overclocked my system to 4.2Ghz
    - NVIDIA control panel and set the power management mode to Prefer maximum performance
    - Set a TdrDelay to data value 8. Source: https://support.microsoft.com/en-nz/kb/2665946
    - Set the Physx processor to be controlled by NVIDIA GTX770
    - Disabled the NVIDIA HD audio drivers
    - Set all the video settings on low and most graphical effects turned off
    - Lowered resolution
    - Formatted system and upgraded to windows 10

    System specs:
    motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme4
    CPU: Intel Core i5 3570k
    CPU cooling: CORSAIR Cooling Hydro Series H100i
    RAM: 2x G.Skill 8 GB DDR3-1600 CL9 9-9-24
    HDDs: 2x Seagate Barracuda 7200.14, 1 TB. in raid0
    GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770
    PSU: Corsair HX850 850W ATX23

    I've been getting the same things every time I play, but it usually only takes me about 3-5 minutes of gameplay before it crashes, usually it happens in missions or when walking a far distance. Makes the game literally unplayable, I've tried every single hotfix and updated my pc to win 8.1 from 8. I have reinstalled, updated and rolled back my nvidia drivers, reinstalled the game multiple times plus verifying the game multiple times, I have reinstalled all my .Net redistrubutables and installed directx 11.1 plus I had 11 before and still didn't work. I have tried compatibility mode, launch as admin, I have tried increasing the timeout delay to both 8 and 30 and neither worked, I have tried different resolutions, different game settings, different nvidia settings, overclocking, downclocking, downclocked the card to nvidia's standard gtx960 through debug mode. NEED HELP, ABOUT TO KILL MYSELF.

    Specs; G1 Gaming GTX960 2gb, i3-4130 (which is powerful enough), 8gb ram and 650W Corsair PSU. Running a 1920x1200 res screen 16:10.


    PLEASE HELP ME.

    Just overclocked my system to 4.2Ghz and it does seem to crash less... but still crashes.

    So the crashes still remain, once or twice per mission.

    Any ideas anyone? it's really annoying to play the game with friends and lose loot in the dark zone..

    My cpu isn't within minimum, but it's quite powerful, I've got an i3-4130, can you check yours to see if yours is good enough? Might be the problem.

    Happens when GPU can't give enough.
    maybe GPU is at its end-life or power supply can't give enough whatts

    This is the only game is happens in, i also have rainbow six siege and i run that without any trouble whatsoever.

    I think the GPU is fine and the power supply is more than enough to support it.

    So i tried something else, still no dice..

    1) Went into NVIDIA control panel and set the power managment mode to Prefer maximum performance.
    2) Into windows regedit, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\GraphicsDrivers, made new QWORD 64 bit (i run windows 64 bit), called it "TdrDelay" double click that and set data value to 8.

    step #2 should apperently give window a timewindow for the communication between cpu and gpu before it crashes.

    Again, this might work for some other people but not for me.
