Changing tabs between Celeste and Lonn, Celeste will stop responding then close and occasionally so will Lonn. The attached log documents errors. In this partiuclar case I was in a level during the crash.

Present failed! Error Code: The GPU will not respond to more commands, most likely because of an invalid command passed by the calling application. (0x887A0006)

update your gpu drivers

#

Do you mind guiding me a bit on this process?

alpine steeple
#

"D3D11 Adapter: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060"
you should be able to just install your drivers via nvidia experience

#

you should have an icon for it on your tray

regal pumice
#

I have the NVIDIA control panel

#

Which doesn't appear to include any mention of drivers

alpine steeple
#

try looking for "geforce"

regal pumice
#

I don't have an application with that name, might need to install it

alpine steeple
#

snip_stare that should be prebuilt i think

#

hold on

regal pumice
alpine steeple
#

ah you can just download it normally

#

yeah

#

same

#

it's that, it should be able to install drivers for you

regal pumice
#

Strangely this was not an option in the Microsoft store either

alpine steeple
#

hm?

regal pumice
#

The only NVIDIA related app was the control panel

alpine steeple
#

ah

#

did you like reinstall the entire operating system or get a new pc?

regal pumice
#

I'll see what I can do with this and let you know how it goes :)

#

Reinstalled the OS, keeping files while deleting applications

alpine steeple
#

ah

#

that explains it

#

on new pcs it's usually pre-installed

regal pumice
#

Ah, so there is more on a fresh PC than a fresh OS?

#

makes sense

alpine steeple
#

yep

regal pumice
#

Apparently I've had the same driver since 2021

alpine steeple
#

yeah that's kinda old widegladeline3

regal pumice
#

Looking at roughly 50 minutes of install time, I'll let you know if this fixes the issue

#

(being honest ive been a bit naughty cause ive had this issue with all of my applications, hence the OS reinstall. ive tried a number of technical support sources and nothing helpful xD this is the first time anything has looked like it might be a solution)

alpine steeple
regal pumice
#

thank god everest error logging is actually detailed, i havnt been able to figure out another way to actually see what the issue is

#

using a modding engine as a debugging tool

alpine steeple
#

lmao

regal pumice
#

I am finding what appears to be the same result, after updating the Game Ready Driver through GEFORCE Experience (which I am not sure is connected to GPU, though I do not see another driver listed) and rebooting the PC

alpine steeple
#

have you rebooted?

#

i promise i can read snip_stare

#

i have no other ideas other than maybe the gpu being bad or something sinister oshiregret2

#

i'm sorry

regal pumice
#

thats ok :)

#

can you elaborate on "GPU being bad"?

alpine steeple
#

like, a dying gpu

#

yknow

regal pumice
#

that is entirely possible. needing to replace it?

alpine steeple
#

yeah

#

i really don't like suggesting that as gpus are pricey

#

and it's gonna be even worse if it turns out that wasn't even the issue oshiregret2

regal pumice
#

lmaooo

#

is it ok if i list the other symptoms of the issue, to see if you find ideas? this steps away from celeste specifically

alpine steeple
#

doesn't hurt

regal pumice
#

ive recieved multiple notifications that "Microsoft Windows Operating System has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware"

#

the occasional miscolored pixel that appears or disappears depending what applications are open

#

applications closing correlate to internet disconnection

alpine steeple
#

what the hell

#

do you have screenshots of those

regal pumice
#

i had one a while ago, let me find the notification

#

this has not occured in a decent amount of time, im unsure if it correlated to a specific application

alpine steeple
#

?????????????????????????????

#

what could even be causing that

#

what the fuck

regal pumice
#

yeah i found that a bit fucked too xD

alpine steeple
#

something fishy's going on

#

either a very very weird antivirus or some sort of virus

#

this is incredibly cursed

regal pumice
#

@golden crest im not asking for your help here, i just think you might appreciate how fucked up this is :)

#

would a virus outlast an OS reinstall?

alpine steeple
#

no way it would

regal pumice
#

i kept files, remember

alpine steeple
#

hmmm

#

not sure

regal pumice
#

ill run a virus killer, do you recommend anything specific?

alpine steeple
#

ii just use defender but i've heard good things about malwarebytes

regal pumice
#

trying that now

#

Malwarebytes scan revealed nothing

alpine steeple
#

hm

#

only other suspicion is just gpu fault

regal pumice
#

so, needs replacing?

#

i can save for that :) just means in the meantime i cant alt-tab much when modding

alpine steeple
#

maybe
