So after some further testing from trying different driver to changing bios on my graphic card I found out why my 780 gtx keep on having random crashes saying “Display driver stopped responding and has recovered”. If your having this problem it has to do with the latest Darkstar pol. Using mxi or any old client launcher fix the issue for me. you can also use Ashita2 to load the pol if you wan't to duel box. only problem is in the game you can't search it says search failed this include the auction house, but at least the game doesn't crash anymore and by the way the problem only happen when playing ffxi.
I can play other games like bf3 bf4 ect... for hours with no problem. My video card idle at 30c and 67c on full load, my i7 4790k never goes pass 55c so I know overheating is not the problem. I'm on the latest ffxi client ver.30150130_0, Geforce Graphic Driver 347.52 playing on the OldSchool Server, ohh and I always logon with 2 character on the same computer so I'm not sure if the issue exist with just single character logon. So far the game been running for 12 hours with no crash i'll keep this thread updated if any crash occur.
loging out after 12 hours gives no error it take me back to charater selection menu and can close the game normaly unlike the new pol that comes with ashita2 it would take a while for the error to come on when logging out and have to force the game to close.
Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
Re: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
it's probably something specific to your system (i have a 780ti and run ffxi for weeks straight)
Re: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
As kj said, sounds related to your setup / card / drivers. The pol I wrote for Darkstar does nothing with your video card. It launches FFXi just as the original one did, nothing there is changed. So if your system is having issues with crashing and such, it definitely sounds like your card is having issues or its drivers are. Especially if the driver is what is saying it has stopped working and recovered.
Re: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
it could be but I found this viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1870 and it works great for me I had the game running the whole day doing alt tab with no display driver crashes or pol and also the search works including the auction house so I'm happy

Re: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
that's the same as the one that comes with ashita
Re: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
no its not kjlotus when you download it says xiloader the one that comes with ashita2 says pol its not the same! just kidding but if it's the same then I'm back to square one but I guess the good news is it's not crashing and I haven't change any hardware or software only thing I change was pointing ashita2 to xloader which I rename to pol.
Re: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
They are exactly the same, I wrote it and I also wrote Ashita v2. I ship it with Ashita v2 renamed as pol.exe so people don't need to manually do it.
