BFBC2 Crash to Desktop using either Surround or Eyefinity

[Mach1.9pants]

New Nvidia drivers are available . I have installed and so far so good . Fingers crossed :)

Nope still crashes within a round

[QuackingPlums]

Sorry to jump in late to this discussion - I have a question about these drivers as I think I may have got the wrong end of the stick.

I am currently running an older set of nVIDIA drivers; when I installed the 275.xx drivers I got the main menu and HUD offset problem so I went back to 270.61 - the problem went away so I've been using these ever since.

I read somewhere (I thought it was this thread, but apparently not) that this was a known bug, but it appears that you guys are using later drivers with no issues? I am not suffering from CTD in BC2, so am wondering if it's worthwhile testing the latest drivers again. Someone care to put me straight?

[Ristogod]

Nope no point in testing newer drivers. Problem still exists. Dice has all but abandoned ever fixing the issue. No point in talking about now as they just claim we are flaming them.

The crazy thing is there IS a fix, they just need to release the damn thing.

Sorry guys , I guess I was hoping for the best :doh . Took me 3 days till I CTD :?

One thing that has helped was to delete 3rd party OC'ing software that came with the motherboard .

It was alot worse before .

It's that that is really stupid.

You've done the work, DICE... now release it so the community can utilise that work, rather than complaining about endless crashes!

[tet5uo]

I wonder if EA has anything to do with this... cracking the whip and making them put every single resource on BF3 to make sure it beats COD to release.

I'm going to e-mail the dev that gave me this beta client and ask wtf is taking so long.. last communication it seemed that r11 was almost ready, but that was literally 2 months ago! I feel bad that I'm sitting here playing un surround with no CTD's and am unable to share it. :doh

Can you ask again if you can share it for 'further BETA testing in the experienced multi-monitor WSGF community'?

just do it

I have spoken to tier 2 and 3 email and phone. They say there is no r11 that they know of.
If this beta existed it would have been leaked one way or the other by now. If I had the fix I would leak it for the community and risk getting banned, I would then go out and buy a new copy (its cheap now) and start again!

The game works for single screen and a fix for 3 screen might break stuff so bc2 supporting 3 screens might be done. There are not enough people playing 3 screen in comparison to single screen players so in their eyes they might see it as fixed good enough. Vietnam works perfect and now they know how to make 3 screens work perfect for bf3. I only ctd on rush new maps everything else is fine.

I'm a TH2GO user, however, getting the same CTD during online gameplay and like others, happens 95% of the time just after dying or checking stats in game.

Been struggling trying to find a solution, scouring forums, finally read through this one and at least I'm not alone in these CTDs with this game.

A few things I noticed. in the "settings.ini" file, if I set my DX version to 9, then, when a CTD happens, that's the worst that happens. If I set DX to 10 or 11, then, i get PC crash when normally I would get a CTD.

I'm running two 560Ti's in SLI on Intel X48 mobo (Using SLI hack). Running Nvidia 275.33 drivers (was using 265 series, no different). Tried everything under the sun, except, putting all my settings on LOW. I sure invested alot of cash in my rig to play a game at LOW levels......

I see there is a fictitious R11 client supposedly out there, haven't found it yet.

I did run the game in SLI at 1920x1200 (Single screen), played all night long, not an issue. This leaves me to believe there is a scaling issue (probably a divide by 0 or something stupid) when a resolution hits, say, 3840x1024 or larger, upon trying to draw dialog boxes...bam, hits you right between the eyes, like a sniper from across the map, shooting from behind a wall and around the corner....but still manages to snipe ya.....not that I'm bitter......

I'll keep on plugging away, tried running the game in XP compatibility mode, SP2 and SP3 variants, run as Admin, changed "RenderFramesAhead" hack (Read in another forum), tried running the game on a single processor, tried forcing nvidia settings, etc, etc...

Going to keep my eye posted here, maybe someone will have a epiphany and solve this, what appears to be, simplistic issue....

There is no official statement from EA or anyone about r11. It is fictitious. I spoke to tier 3 and there is no r11 if there was it would have been leaked a long long time ago. BF3 is coming and everyone playing bc2 will move on to that. BC2 works perfect in single screen and EA will not chance a new patch that might screw it up. It is not supported by 64bit and will not be fixed nor can it be tweaked to work properly in 3 screen

[tet5uo]

Well, I know you assume it would have been leaked, but some of us take serious the fact that we promised not to. :nudgenudge

I think EA just put the brakes on r11 and made them all work on BF3 or something. Because last I had heard from Kalms r11 was in QA.

so called r11 was given to ppl on other forums almost a year ago! Lots of ppl claimed to have it! If that many ppl had it would have been leaked. Think about it. Leak it for the community and get banned then go out and buy another game for $10-$20

SHOW ME ONE OFFICIAL STATEMENT THAT IT EXISTS! even if it did why wont anyone talk about it or even prove a fix is in the works. This so called r11 is giving false hope. The game is broken for 3 screens.

[tet5uo]

Yeah because I'm going to jeopardize my status as someone worthy of being sent a beta-build by leaking it just so you'll believe me.

Give this a try:

Did anyone come up with anything else? So running eyefinity in DX9 will not work with this fix?
Thanks

[suiken_2mieu]

What is this referring to?

[Monster]

Seems like he is referring to the BFBC2 CTD fix posted in the other thread. Maybe a moderator could move this post?

[onthemour]

I installed asus gputweak tool and uninstalled it, now I ctd in all rush modes(except Vietnam). I used to only ctd in the rush newer maps

This is almost enough to hate the game now. I can't play rush for longer than 5 minutes. I wish they would release BF3 tomorrow so I can uninstall and delete this sh!t game mode for 3 screens. No one will care if it is fixed after BF3 is released
