Solved Crash playing Rainbow 6 and other newly released games

[reddieex]

hi folks,
i did tons of googleing and tests on my pc but i still dont have a clue. so i hope you can help me.
i installed at example rainbow six siege on my pc. i log in to the game start a new match and play around 10-11 seconds, sometimes more, sometimes less seconds the game until i got the error "Der Anzeigetreiber "nvlddmkm" reagiert nicht mehr und wurde wiederhergestellt." (i hope you can german ) so i lacked the way to the livekernel reports and got some watchdog crashdumps which i debugged. but i cant find the lack of these errors. im not as well versed in debbuging watchdogs logs but maybe you can help me

nvlddmkm.sys is the driver of your nvdia geforce Card.
Do you have the latest version installed.
There is a new driver specially for Rainbow 6 siege Just Cause 3 & Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege Game Ready Driver Released | GeForce

The Dumpfile also points to GPU related crash

Bugcheck code is 0x00000141 VIDEO_ENGINE_TIMEOUT_DETECTED

Probably causes: drivers, Directx corrupt or need updates, overclocking GPU, overheating system
more info (old) Video TDR Timeout - 0x116 + 0x117

Has the game Rainbow 6 game a included map DirectX that you can update/install?

ive checked directx a couple of times updated it with june 2010 sdk and also with the web installer. "this reinstalling" thing can only happen if i reinstall windows right? cauze ive already done this 6 times. im now a bit aware of my overheat. ingame my gpu runs on 72° C and my cooler just runs in 20 % mode... i dont know where this relates to but the cooler should running higher if the gpu got more load or im false?

Yes directx is a part of windows os now. But sometimes a game has made some adjustments or new features and they include a map directx on there retailDVd or included it in their download. And you need to update/install that.

I believe 72 degrees C is not exceptionel high temperature. There are settings for how your fans can run. But i am not a real hardware geek.
I advice you to ask this question in the Performance and maintenance forum.

i adjusted now my gpu bios. its adjusted to standard MHz and Boost MHz of nvidia graphic cards (not subvendor standards) so ive got now a not OC card. i also adjusted the fan speed % to a higher value. since this my gpu doesnt get further as 60°C and i could play without any crashs. i dont know if nvidia try rubbish with the driver or my subvendor does a false oc but i know that everything worked with my graphics card as it was in another PC with amd processor. now its a intel processor and since then ive got these problems. hopefully there comes a fix out of nvidia or maybe intel drivers soon™

Great, that you found a workaround.
If this is a new GPU i would contact your subvendor and tell them about this expererience/outcome. And if it could be that you have a faulty GPU with wrong specification and that you could get a RMA.
