Everytime i search the list of hosts, then whilst it is still searching, i press the "?" on one of the hosts it won't load and just freezes for about 30secs, then takes a couple of tries to get the host list back up again.

Hope this is the right place.

If you don't have a crash address of that, this is the wrong place

My video card crashed sathurday the 14th.

i was training online with my team on SO sprint with RAC/FZ5. at the moment i wanted to quit LFS my videocard started to do weird, i only could see an coloured snow screen. even after a few times restarting and also after a day. i have Z10 installed.

it was an ATI RADEON 9600 256MB DDR1 AGP.

i dont want a refund for this. because it wassnt verry expencive ( 60 euro's ) and it was already 6 years old. 3rd reason is that i think scawen has enough on his mind with the new patch!

i hope you guys can do something with this information.

good luck!

It's a 6 year old card, what do you expect TBH LFS didn't cause it, it's just an old card.

I think he meant that's why the card burnt out, cause it was really oldy. Obviously one of the best things about LFS has always been that works well on crappy hardware, because it has been so lovingly built.

Plus, you know, the EULA says the devs ain't libel for any damages to hardware.

I don't mean there's anything wrong with having an old card (Hell, my last card was the 9800 PRO :shrug, but a card that old can't be blamed for giving up the ghost. (Having said that, my 9800 is still going strong after 6 and a half years As in, Crysis strong )

6 years? it did a good job and it simply died by age.... normal graphic cards are built to last 3 or 4 years and so 6 years are great!

yeah 6 years is a long time same age as my computer! i hope it last a little longer though!!

Yeah, and on mine 9800GT even GTA IV can run on ultra settings.
10 fps, but yeah.

It's happened more and more lately. Once wile I was playing, and Twice when i was exiting the game:

From Event Viewer:

ATI 4870 512mb DDR5

just crashed while on a drift server

I think you should click on the extended report to see the address.

It looks to me somebody was driving ilegal mod cars no? couldn't this be a cause?

Quote from ACCAkut :

Thanks. You should click the button to see technical information, so you can report the crash address.

But anyway in this case it would not help, because the module where the crash occurred was ntdll.dll (not a line in LFS).

LFS may or may not have caused the crash.

Just connected on a LFS server and it came up with this:

A part from crash quote of Bombenleger can't help

Description of the ntdll.dll.

I got this error when my LFS was freezing and some errors appeared. But I think it is maybe my GPU, because it is a little bit hot now...

This happens all the time, Online/Offline, in any car, any server..I've uninstalled/installed again..installed on my external hard drive, It might be my download, but it was fine for about a week before I started getting problems.

I can locate the function where the crash occurs but I can't see any obvious reason why it would crash there. It is in an object drawing function.

That limited description suggests to me that something is corrupted. Here are three possibilities that have all come up in the past.


1) Possibly a corrupted track file. If that is the case then it would only crash on one particular track.

2) A memory problem. I guess that this might give a different crash address on different tracks, or be quite unpredictable.

3) CPU problem - are you overclocking your CPU? If so then please try at normal speed. Sometimes overclocked computers run just until LFS has been running a while.


Any more information? Which tracks does it happen on / does it happen on the first lap / if not then around how long until it happens / does it happen every time without fail?

It happens when: I do a lengthy burnout, I have a high speed crash, just when I'm driving around.


Any tracks, mainly SO though..I have not overclocked my CPU, but it could be my GPU as its quite old (GeForce 6200). Ive tested my RAM, and that 100% ok.

Scawen, my LFS already 2 times had a hard crash out of nowhere.

I'm using Windows 7 32bit.

The problem is, it starts collecting the info what caused the crash, and then I can only select close program.

Could you please tell me where I can find the crash report, so that I can post the crash address here?
