[CRASH] BSOD on world creation

September 18, 2009 12:22:17 AM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

After showing the Creating World screen for a while, I got a BSoD, probably related to the Nvidia driver. I'd managed to start games two times earlier in the evening successfully, but the first one died from a BSOD after odd graphical artifacts appeared. I didn't save the error dump from it, though.

 

Debug.err

DxDiag.txt

Screenshot of the weird graphical errors before it BSoD'd the first time.

Does this graphical oddity happen every time?   If so, please try changing the  "Maximum Mip Map Levels" option (in Video tab) to "1 Level"

If that doesn't help, try reducing your screen resolution.

These are not meant to be optimal solutions, but if changing these options eliminates the problem, then it can help us narrow down what the real problem is.

Thanks.
