Aero bug

Rich · 07-31-2013, 11:54 AM

Hi James, I have checked those things, not using USB3.0 for my displays. I read that the aero issue relates to directX, do you consider the issue resolved? Will try and do the log thing.

Hi,

Yes please attach the logs.

Thanks,
James

How strange, I do a lot of iRacing which often involves triple screen setups and it seems many others have these random USB drops. I've not had one since enabling aero but it is a bit of resource hog and I would prefer to disable it.

I ran windows update yesterday, not updated since early this year. I noticed an optional displaylink driver update and so selected. I checked the versions before and after, am using the latest version, it didn't change the version, not sure what it did.

Hi,

Sorry, AMD CrossFire is not supported:

Agh, I read that it will either work or not work though in crossfire, and how does crossfire relate to windows themes? Some of the iRacing members have single card configurations too, in fact most of them do as crossfire is not supported by iRacing either. I very much doubt this is a crossfire issue.

I will disable crossfire and see if I still get the drops with aero disabled, almost guaranteed it will still happen though.

Can confirm that it happens with crossfire disabled. I left it running a couple of times and both times I came back the application had been dumped to desktop, also it dropped one time while I was on the PC. This is with crossfire disabled and aero disabled, and some of the iRacing members have confirmed that it works if aero is enabled, none of them have crossfire.

Hi,

Is this CrossFire disabled with two AMD graphics present?

Thanks,
James
