Metro Last Light crashing on last mission D6

[litwicki24]

Hey all. I have a problem. I want to know where is the fault. I mean ,last time , i bought my new Lightning 770 . Overall i am happy with temperatures, and playing games. But yesterday when i was playing Metro Last Light my game just freeze then i use CTRL+ALT+DELETE and close METROLL.exe because HE WAS STOPPED RESPONDING. No any error messages come with it in EventViewer. EventViewer only shows APPHANG or APPCRASH. Nothing about DISPLAY. I just get the "Not Responding" in task manager. The game simply froze and I had to bring up the task manager to close the game (which was "not responding" ).
( Last level D6 with tank )
Temp while that crash happens was 73C , so its good .

I mean game is crashing often only in D6 last mission. Sometimes its crash sometimes not. But only in D6. Can somebody experienced similiar issue? Or its something with my GPU?

All games i played and tested: Black Ops 2, Crysis 3 + benchmarks like Unigine Heaven and 3dmarks no crashing even one single time, just never. Only Metro LL is crashing sometimes in last mission, and i am worried now. Where is the issue?
I am using 320.49 WHQL drivers. Temps while playing are good , from 69C to 73C.

try reinstalling drivers and running cpu, gpu etc without overclocks if any are overclocked.

also if this is a steam copy of the came try right-clicking the game and then; Properties>local files> verify integrity of game cache. just to be sure there are no issues with your game install

 

[Remmy]

Do you get any error messages?

You could still retrying the graphics drivers, this fixed my BF3 crashing problem only a few days ago, despite me being on the latest drivers. Could you also try reinstall Metro: LL without losing your save data?

 

[litwicki24]

When i play again Metro LL from start to end i get no crashes in any other missions. Only when i am on lvl D6 sometimes yes sometimes not ,screen freez and i must close application.


EventLog say only Apphang or Appcrash. Anything about Display recovery.



My cpu is not overclocked. 3770K 3.5
Gpu is overclocked only default by factory.


Max temps is 73C in Metro .

 

[Remmy]

Try reinstalling your graphics drivers first of all

 

[litwicki24]

Look:

Today i get Display recovered!!!! Oo


Its something bad with card now? If i get driver recovery crash. Only D6 mission

 

[Remmy]

Bro, the easiest thing to try first is to reinstall your graphics drivers, have you done this yet?

 

[litwicki24]

yes. And i am worried because display recovery is a wrong sign.

I know that all games and other benchs runs fine. But in Metro LL i got this .

 

[remember300]

yes. And i am worried because display recovery is a wrong sign.

I know that all games and other benchs runs fine. But in Metro LL i got this .

Are you using the beta drivers?
And i had issues with Mirrors edge but after turning physx off it stopped that issue. And for fallout 3 i had to use only 2 cores on my CPU.

 

[litwicki24]

Again, maybe little brighter. Sorry for my bad language.
I cant pass 20+ loops while i am running benchmark in Metro LL.
I get freez, then black screen and in eventlog i get " nvl....Driver display recovery...EVENT ID 4104"

Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.

This can also happen in the Benchmark after running it for 10-20 times in a loop.

I'm very confident my video card and the rest of my hardware are fine, I have been running several Benchmarks (Unigine Valley and Heaven, 3DMark11 and 2013 one) as well as other games (Battlefield 3, Crysis 3, Tomb Raider, Fear 3,Black Ops 2, even Metro Last Light playing is ok.). All of these are very demanding as well and they run without any problems


Only Metro LL benchmark is crashing GPU.



I have:
Gtx 770 Lightning
I7 3770K 3.5
8gb ram
Be Quiet Dark Power Pro 1000W
Sabertooth Z77
320.49 WHQL drivers




My previous card 770 Lightning too was faulty, but was crashing often in Unigine Heaven and card was shutting off computer while i was on test DEMO ICE STORM in 3dmark 13. Now on my actually Lightning 770 all its ok. But only Metro LL is crashing driver when i am benchmarking. So what now? RMA card because now its unstable on Metro LL bench? -.-

HAVE YOU RE-INSTALLED YOUR DRIVERS?

please tell us if you have taken our previous advice! otherwise we cannot help further!

 

[litwicki24]

Yes i reinstalled and again the same problem.

 

[WYP]

Does this error occur on any other level?

try the latest beta drivers and re install the game.

Have you tried playing the game with different settings? maybe lowering the settings or turning off physx might help.

 

[litwicki24]

Nop. Only D6 level ( when i am playing ) or benchmarking ( its D6 the same level )

 

[litwicki24]

What is strange, i turn off PHYSX and no crashed yet and i am almost on 30 LOOP.

 

[WYP]

Hmm, try a heavy physx benchmark tool from another game/dedicated benchmark and see how it fairs with physx on and off.

if physx is the problem it explains why all those other non-physx games work without issues.

 

[litwicki24]

I read somewhere that PHYSX can be crashing kernel drivers in that game Oo.
:'. Apparently it's something to do with PhysX not detecting the GPU properly and defaulting to the main processor of the PC, as there not designed to process PhysX it crashes the nvlddmkm Nvidia driver. I have no idea what the driver does though."

 

[WYP]

if we can isolate the probem to physx and physx only in that game, the solution is play it without physx.

i would test another physx heavy game just to rule out a hardware fault.

 

[litwicki24]

42 loop without crash!! So it was PHYSX!! But why display is crashing?

 

[remember300]

i had physx listed as a possible problem and its just a hold up on the system. some crash in some ways or drop fps like mirrors edge did for me lol i was getting 2 fps and some crash in others it depends on what its causing to crash if that makes sense.
