Graphics drivers crash after playing ETS2 for 20-30 minutes

[Takumi Fujiwara 86]

Very recently an issue has started popping up where after playing ETS2 for about 20-30 minutes (sometimes less) my graphics driver crashes and recovers, thus the game crashes and sometimes renders my PC unusable until i restart it.

 

WHAT I HAVE DONE ALREADY (READ THIS):

Updated drivers

Rolled back drivers (because updating didn't work)

Fiddled with my settings

Restarted my PC

Cried in corner

Validated ETS2 Files

 

 

It doesn't do this in any other game (GTAV, RSV2, OMSI, etc.) only ETS2

 

 

MY SPECS (READ THESE TOO):

 

XFX R9 270x

Intel i7 4770

16gb DDR3

 

(there are others but those are the ones that matter)

 

help.

Running the game without raptr seems to have fixed the problem

Once i had the same problem and almost tried everything you did. Mmmm, except crying in corner. I preffered kitchen 

 

Anyways, i realized that my graphics card is almost plugged out from its socket. Thats why, i guess, the pc thinks that its a new part and tries to reset/renew the drivers. On the other hand, you are stating that there's no problem with other games, but its worth a check? I hope you can find the solution asap.

Does it do this in singleplayer?

[Takumi Fujiwara 86]

it does do it in singleplayer aswell

it could be handy to post some logs otherwise it gonna be a wild guess 

 

1) gamelog.txt (ets2 folder)

 

2) last crash log (et2mp folder)

 

upload those to pastebin.com and share the links here , please do separated links

Do you use Raptr or Gaming Evolved?

 

When I record sometimes drivers crashes. It's a problem related to AMD, because other programs and games works fine. And we have the same GPU.

Crash log doesn't exist because it's not th game that crashes, but the drivers.

 

Are you sure that the Higlight feature is disabled?

I get the same problem, but the drivers crash for me.

Specs:

AMD 8320 4.0ghz

8gb ram 1660mhz

did you checked my link ? because if you have this in your log

 

 

 

<ERROR> [dx9] Present failed. [0x88760874]

 

there are some fixes 

[JeKnYan]

It doesn't do this in any other game (GTAV, RSV2, OMSI, etc.) only ETS2

 

I'm having this problem on my laptop also, where I couldn't even play ETS2, but I could with other games, such as Unturned and Minecraft because ETS2 is a demanding game (If GTA V is a demanding game, IDK why it works for you). 5 seconds in, it flickers and crashes. A friend recommended me to replace the motherboard components

 

It must be that the graphics chip is screwed, like the one on my laptop

What I'd recommend is to bring your Graphics card to the place where you bought it (if it still has it's warranty) and get it replaced, or buy a new one.

That should fix your problem

Your solution didnt work dutch, still does it to me, however ill try running ets2 without raptr open and see what happens

Try mine

The best thing is to send a mail to Raptr, they will answer you in 4 months. Maybe. That's what I experienced.

 

Anyway, do you want some others opinion or I can mark this as solved?

[[S.PLH]Warrior]

Running the game without raptr seems to have fixed the problem

 

hmm so you use raptr instead of amd gaming involved ? because raptr is mostly used for other gpu brands 

[marco6158]

It's the same, crashes happens with both for me, and those are basically the same thing

i don't have any issues with amd evolved it never crashed on me 

[marco6158]

I get crashes with both
