grechie Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Hey Guys, I like to consider myself as being tech savy, and I usually can diagnose and sort out my own computer problems, however this time its got me stumped! I recently bought a P370EM3 (120hz 3D Vision 2), which comes with SLI 680m. I have mainly purchased this thing for Battlefield 3. I am having a problem where BF3 will crash to a black screen, and when I control alt delete out of it, I have a direct x "GetDeviceRemovedReason" error. This crash mainly occurs on the deploy screen (where you choose your gear), it can happen instantly on that screen (don't get a chance to click deploy), or sometimes when I let it sit on that screen for a bit. Temperatures are ~ 65 gpu1 and ~75 gpu2. I have tried around 5 different NVidia driver sets, & on a clean install of windows 7, and windows 8, & on two different SSD's. I have latest DX drivers installed, on a vanilla install! IE format, windows installed, direct x drivers, NVidia drivers, origin, BF3. I had gotten the laptop RMA'd and a new one was sent to me, and this one has the EXACT same issues. So am I to believe this is a driver related crash in BF3? really? I frankly would sleep better if I was certain it was a driver issue however there's lots of SLI 680m alienware laptops having no (reported) issues on BF3. At the moment, I have no other crashes in any other games, including the Crysis 3 MP open beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grechie Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 just an update, I seem to have resolved the issue by enabling VSYNC. WTF, Driver issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabihabie Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 What kind of VBIOS you have?You can see it with the GPU-Z i think there are 2 different bios version for the Clevo GTX680M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
