The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display
driver due to exceeding the Windows Time-Out limit and is unable to continue.
The application must close.

Erros Code: 7

I have Nvidia 240 GT with most recent drivers (340.x)

I found that the crash happens usually when I zoom in, or when it is already zoomed in and city, a bus or a train gets into focus.

These can be found by running regedit.exe and navigating to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers. If the settings (keys) are not there, they have to be created (with type REG_DWORD).

The first option is to increase the timeout threshold by setting TdrDelay to a larger value (e.g. 10). If this doesn’t help, TDR can be disabled altogether by setting TdrLevel to 0.

When i set it to a minute it only made my machine hang for a minute.

I also set graphics settings to lowest. However enabling high resolution textures seems to have made crashes less frequent.

I haven^t had a crash since latest patch. The problem might have been related to texture loading which latest patch contained a fix for.

 

Next time the crash happens i will try disabling threaded optimization in nvidia control panel

Disabling threaded optimization had no effect at all.

Crash still happens when I zoom in to a city, or zoomed in and scroll the view.

This happens after a few minutes of playing Train Fever, in different situations, so I do not have a clear reproduction instruction. Unfortunately the game can not be played like this.

Switching TDR off (TdrLevel=0) leads to a full computer hang instead of a TrainFever crash. Is there a way I can provide you with more debug information, or some some low-level gl settings I can try?

System:

  • lowest Graphics settings
  • TrainFever  build 4831
  • Nvidia GT240, driver 340.52
  • Windows7 64bit
  • Quad-Core  Core2Duo Q8400@2.66 Ghz
  • 4GB Ram

cheers
