Freezes

[Anton_]

Is anyone else getting screen freezes?

I'm getting them at least once per session - screen just freezes, last-played-sound continues, and the mouse chitters when it's moved, as if it's mouseovering clickable items.

I don't usually get a System Error message, but I did this last time: "A file has failed to load after multiple attempts as directX cannot lock a buffer." And then says my PC might be a bit of a wimp - as follows:

Is it?

Yep, after patch today 4 times in RES and my friend got frozen 3 times.

No, should run ok.

Try deleting current driver and reinstalling. Reinstall directx from Elite launcher sub folder.

Validate Elite files from the launcher.

Virus scan.

Cleaned out your computer of dust recently?

If all else fails restore windows. Its easy now in windows to do so and keep personal files by holding shift and selecting restart from start menu.

Good luck...


If it is just Elite doing this then submit a ticket.

Freezing like you once a session. I notice a huge spike in CPU usage at the moment of the freeze in task manager.

Just happened to me now, docked and brought up menu. Freeze.
