[40d] Driver Fail
« on: August 05, 2009, 11:36:37 am »
Not sure if this is DF only but I only have problems with it while playing DF.

DF will stop responding then I get a message saying:
''Display Driver nvlddmkm has stopped working and recovered"

Anyone know whats wrong? Its happened twice now on this fortress right after my marksdwarf hits legendary xbow skill.

At one of my older forts, I had a cat with a kobold kill to it's name, I locked a kobold into a small pit and then kept tossing cats in till it died.....For Science!

That's your OpenGL driver crashing.
Can occur with anything that uses OpenGL, not just DF.

You can try updating your drivers, but I don't know if it'll help (didn't with my Wurm crashes)
