Getting Exit 1061 issues - Improved after removing overclocking.

[ljr69]

I'm new to X4 and am currently going through the tutorials. I am getting to a point where the screen stops refreshing (locks up basically) but I can still interact with the game through the keyboard controls and hear the audio (e.g. firing a weapon). Eventually it drops to drdump.

I've run a stress test using Furmark(VK) and also a GPU memory stress test (results attached). I am attaching my dxdiag and vk equivalent, as well as my dmp file. Any ideas as to what else to check?

I can't access your files.

Apologies for that. Does this work?

The links apparently do work if you have a Microsoft account, but I don't have one.

Stupid Microsoft!

Okay, let's give Google Drive a go...

The crashdump confirms that this is a Lost Device error, but doesn't give much more information than that. Your DXDiag looks OK, although your on-board AMD graphics device looks like it could do with newer drivers (yes, I know you're not using that one for the game, but Vulkan is very particular about all drivers being up to date for some reason, even for devices that are not being used).

Are any parts of your system overclocked, overvolted or otherwise tweaked for additional performance? If so then the first step would be to set these back to normal as, again, Vulkan can be very particular about this and seems to throw Lost Device errors at the slightest timing issue.

I think you're right. I reverted an overclock on my GPU (even though it's shown to be stable in a Furmark(VK) stress test), and it does indeed seem to be working for the moment. That's gonna make overclocking a pain if you can't rely on stress tests to know whether an oc will affect VK's flakiness. As it happens the fps is great, so no real drama for this game at least.

Thanks CBJ!
