[tough wigeon]

Just the dlss profiles, not the actual version can be changed driver side?

[proven sundial]

You can

Driver sided

[tough wigeon]

Can you link me an article how this is done?

[proven sundial]

Download nvidia profile inspector

[tough wigeon]

nvidia app only has model preset selectors

[proven sundial]

It should have more dlss overrides

And more specific options

[tough wigeon]

The nvidia app has all presets until M. I havent used inspector in ages let me check it out.

[proven sundial]

My friends told me it has more advanced options

So worth a try

[rancid loom]

this fricking game

[proven sundial]

You don't need tech support 😂

You know the solution

[rancid loom]

ye I already know what to do

it's just dumb that this happens at random

[proven sundial]

It's just windows not able to read and write sometimes

[tough wigeon]

It actually automatically overrides it to the second latest version, so I guess its fine.

[proven sundial]

Good to know 🙂

[tough wigeon]

Thanks man! I forgot about nvidia inspector

[proven sundial]

All good take care

[rancid loom]

solved it

yeah this error is always dumb as usual

[proven sundial]

It is what it is

[summer pagoda]

damn there are people that regularly get the releasing resources issue?

software diff ig

[rancid loom]

regardless, it's annoying af lmao

like, just played yesterday with no issues

then after a day this happens

[summer pagoda]

you should setup a script to run the fix for you at every launch

[rancid loom]

I'mma like "What the fck is going on?"

[proven sundial]

Going with a script just for that would be a bit silly 😂

Running scripts to target irrelevant files in windows that's a great thing

[summer pagoda]

I heard Marathon is slamming people's CPUs, time to find out

[proven sundial]

HE's going in

https://tenor.com/view/marathon-marathon-game-gifcaption-caption-gif-10881002704809381083

[summer pagoda]

I just need 12 more minutes to get my discord orbs and then I'm out

[proven sundial]

Lol well

Actually marathon is not too bad

[agile mortar]

Is it possible to play Arknights on a MacBook?

[summer pagoda]

Maybe it will hit me hard with destiny crucible nostalgia and I'll stay for a bit

[summer pagoda]

afaik only through paid emulators?

[agile mortar]

I need it free if possible

[proven sundial]

Use playcover

[agile mortar]

I'm using playcover and it won't work, it launches for 2 seconds and then closes on itself

I don't think the IPA is corrupt but it won't start no matter what

[proven sundial]

Hmm well the only other way to play is with mumuplayer

That is free

[tardy sky]

mac support soon?

[brazen flume]

Nvidia background application max frame rate not working in Arknights: Endfield
How can I fix this issue? It only occurs in this game out of many others installed on my PC.

[summer pagoda]

tried myself, no luck

[proven sundial]

Perhaps use rtss ?

[proven sundial]

#contact-us

[brazen flume]

Yes, I use it
But in other games, it doesn't affect the background FPS limit

[proven sundial]

I get what you mean it's a bit of a pick your poison in this situation

[brazen flume]

Try disabling rtss and re-entering the game - should the background FPS limit work?

[proven sundial]

Well it should work properly on nvidia

[summer pagoda]

my 4070 is getting around 75-85% usage while my 9800x3d is hitting the 60s
wtf is bungie doing

do they only know how to sell microtransactions now?

[proven sundial]

Good old cpu juggling

Is the main thread being fully used ?

[summer pagoda]

shit man you want me start another game

[proven sundial]

It's as you please

I aint asking shit

[summer pagoda]

is the first run confirmed pve only?

cuz I so no other players in 30 min

[proven sundial]

There are always players

Scavs and normal players

Scavs are weaker

And do less damage

[summer pagoda]

I'll give it another run

I don't like the stamina system

[proven sundial]

Fair enough

[brazen flume]

Disabling rtss didn't help at all
Background FPS is still not capped at 20 as specified in NVIDIA settings
120 in active game and in the background

[proven sundial]

Then the driver level override is not working

[summer pagoda]

works in Marathon
Bungie 1
HG 0

[brazen flume]

But this problem only occurs in this game, I didn’t think it was a driver issue

[proven sundial]

It's probably because it is a heavily modified unity engine

There are other games like this that have the same issue with modified unity

Unfortunately i don't have a nvidia card on the side to test

[brazen flume]

How can I contact technical support? I'd like the developers to resolve this issue

[proven sundial]

#contact-us

Best way to do it

[proven sundial]

So any cpu threads being overworked ?

[summer pagoda]

it's so cooked dude

[proven sundial]

Huh 4 main threads

Just like destiny 2

Welp

[summer pagoda]

but reddit told me they improved the engine

[proven sundial]

Well they did

Since it uses more than 4 cores nows

[summer pagoda]

anyways, not my type of game

game has good clarity though

[proven sundial]

Good to know

[summer pagoda]

It looks good

[proven sundial]

Well it is a server slam

Beta test as we speak

[summer pagoda]

isn't release next week

[proven sundial]

Yup

Welcome to gamma testing

Then

[summer pagoda]

speaking of game testing

how did you like crimson desert

[proven sundial]

Crimson desert is shit

Nah jk

[summer pagoda]

damn

scared me ngl

[proven sundial]

It's actually very well polished

And render distance is 5km

Reminds me of crysis 3

[summer pagoda]

BDO engine

[proven sundial]

A WELL OPTIMIZED ENGINE

[summer pagoda]

in this day in age?!

[versed nimbus]

[summer pagoda]

NOWAY

[proven sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/yuru-yuri-anime-drool-drooling-loading-gif-15638770612162896677

Anyway

I got 188 fps in 1080p

And 130 at 1440p

[summer pagoda]

Embark and Pearl Abyss my goat devs

🥹

[proven sundial]

Ooh and

They have advanced light rendering

Looks better than ray tracing

[summer pagoda]

is it new tech or did they actually take the time to bake it well

[proven sundial]

They have dynamic light baking

It cycles every 5 seconds

Honestly looks good

No artifacts

[summer pagoda]

I'm excite

watch it mogg witcher 4

[proven sundial]

Can it run crysis 4 though

[summer pagoda]

you think crysis devs are going to go all out just to revive the meme

[proven sundial]

Hey them germans doing work

👀

[versed nimbus]

Can they revive my pc tho?

[proven sundial]

They will support 96 cpu cores

You know what that means

[summer pagoda]

"Building a server to run Crysis (20-whenever)"

[proven sundial]

You tried reviving it ?

[proven sundial]

I have a 48 core 96 thread xeon on the side

Would be funny to see

[summer pagoda]

half the fun of a new game is the benchmarking!

[proven sundial]

I mean the threadripper will blast the xeon out of the water

But

Seeing all those cores being used

May be a joy for my eyes

[versed nimbus]

I setup my fans on fancontrol

Why does it not remember it on startup

Should I use a different program for this?

[proven sundial]

You mean fan control on your mobo or os program?

[versed nimbus]

program not bios

I want it to change fan rpm based on temp I don't think bios can do that

[proven sundial]

Read your mobo manual

Some do pwm

[summer pagoda]

what yes you can

that's basic fan control

[proven sundial]

Or what could happen

Is your windows

Broke the comms between fan control

Happened to me once

[versed nimbus]

It keeps defaulting to 50%

and that is pretty loud on the aio fan

[proven sundial]

Reinstall fan control first

Something must be wrong with the install

[versed nimbus]

Oh

Apparently its a windows thing

New version wants you to use a different kernel lvl thing

Cause apparently windows blocks it from looking at the sensors?

[proven sundial]

Yeah like i said it breaks the comms

[versed nimbus]

So I have to do it in the bios

or is there an easier program to use

[summer pagoda]

just have a fan hub

nzxt is my one stop app

[proven sundial]

I mean just do it in bios

It's set and forget anyway

[versed nimbus]

What do you recommend for idle %

[proven sundial]

Depends

[summer pagoda]

700-800rpm

or less if bigger fans

[proven sundial]

If you have normal fans 30 percent

[summer pagoda]

I use 33%

[proven sundial]

Lol

[versed nimbus]

What temperature do you go up

[proven sundial]

What was the cpu again ?

[versed nimbus]

7800x3d

[summer pagoda]

hot boy

[versed nimbus]

45 celsius during genshin rn

[proven sundial]

Well at 40 celsius

Your fans should gradually go up

Like a linear curve

[versed nimbus]

100 at 80?

[proven sundial]

Never go 100

[versed nimbus]

80 at 80?

[proven sundial]

90 at 78

[versed nimbus]

can you do case fans too in bios based on cpu/gpu?

[proven sundial]

If they are connected yeah

I usually have a fan controller

External

[versed nimbus]

I've never had that before

[proven sundial]

But doing it via bios is good

Ugh i hate myself

It's actually uefi nowadays

But hey

You should be fine

[golden zenith]

dont worry, i called them bios even though it uefi

[proven sundial]

My brain wants to kill itself when i am not using the correct term

I guess it's a software error on my end

[versed nimbus]

Is it normal for gpu to use 70w in genshin

[golden zenith]

ahh, bios just roll off the tongue unlike uefi so it normal

[proven sundial]

That's nothing

[summer pagoda]

"oof-fee"

[proven sundial]

My gpu uses 380 watts in endfield

[versed nimbus]

But is it too low

[summer pagoda]

please tell you're uncapped

[proven sundial]

Yes uncapped and frame gen

[proven sundial]

Nah all good

[versed nimbus]

Brain fried by everything

[proven sundial]

My main monitor is 280 hz

[golden zenith]

GI ran on like 60-70w for me

[summer pagoda]

noice

[proven sundial]

Genshin impact is actually very light

[summer pagoda]

I'm waiting for asus to drop the glossy true black 240hz 4k tandem oled panels

[versed nimbus]

Every stutter is now internal trauma

[summer pagoda]

e-every s-stutter?

[proven sundial]

I mean tandem oled is nice and all but will you achieve 240 hz

[versed nimbus]

[golden zenith]

you know, GI made a pretty dumb decision....

put the 120FPS cap only on iOS product...

[summer pagoda]

yea man the 6070 will have 5090 performance for only 1000usd

[proven sundial]

I honestly don't play genshin anymore

The only reason why i played it

Because of covid depression

😂

[golden zenith]

sound about right

[versed nimbus]

I like the story

[summer pagoda]

genshin was cool when it was the only thing around

[versed nimbus]

And building character fun

[proven sundial]

Wuwa is just the GOAT

Combat is aggressive

Story is deep

And counters are fun

[summer pagoda]

Help, I S3 Aemeth and now everying dies in one rotation

[versed nimbus]

No clue what fan is which

[proven sundial]

My daughter

[golden zenith]

meanwhile there me who dont enjoy it, suffer due to my friends that played it & need helps

it really not my game

[summer pagoda]

I forget what else I was playing around that time

[proven sundial]

Ooh i remember i raged on for honor

😂

[summer pagoda]

maybe bf4 was getting stale for me

r6 Seige maybe too

[versed nimbus]

There are 6 fans

I have 3

[proven sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/james-doakes-doakes-curious-suspicious-questioning-gif-14390669560130901665

[summer pagoda]

just ramp them up to find out

[versed nimbus]

Or are the front 3 individual

[summer pagoda]

are they on a splitter

[golden zenith]

are the 3 daisy-chained together?

[proven sundial]

Must be

[summer pagoda]

is this a prebuilt?

[versed nimbus]

No

[golden zenith]

Nah, Riko built it

[versed nimbus]

But I don't remember this 100%

[summer pagoda]

then why don't you know 😭

[versed nimbus]

Dementia I don't know

[proven sundial]

Slap a note on his forehead

[versed nimbus]

I forget a lot

Why is there a CPU fan, cpu opt but also a sys fan pump

[summer pagoda]

pump is for pump

[golden zenith]

ahhh, those....

[proven sundial]

Cpu fan is cpu fan

[broken swift]

cpu opt, pump are for pump, cpu fans for cpu fans

[summer pagoda]

opt is just a bonus cpu fan

[proven sundial]

Riko

You need to be honest

Who built it ?

[versed nimbus]

I did

[broken swift]

cpu opt can be used for pump too

[versed nimbus]

But I am not the smartest tool in the shed

[summer pagoda]

a second pump

[runic wolf]

Bro my farming not work

#aic-factory

Servers are up and running what platform are you on ?

[summer pagoda]

NA/EU worked fine for me just now

[oblique haven]

pc

[versed nimbus]

I have one back fan

[proven sundial]

Error screenshot ?

[versed nimbus]

3 in front

[golden zenith]

ahh.... RU player....

[versed nimbus]

But the other one

I have no clue

[summer pagoda]

your planter and picker are flipped

[golden zenith]

that what i assume as well, bird not in hatchery

[proven sundial]

Perhaps check which fans you bought ?

You'll know which ones are connected

And which are not

I mean individial fans and daisy chained

[broken swift]

3 intakes and 1 exhaust?

[tall acorn]

lmfao, what's your issue?

[versed nimbus]

So I guess you have the mini fan on the cpu, the fan on the pump, the one in the back and the 3 in the front

[broken swift]

what mini fan?

[versed nimbus]

Not really an issue

[summer pagoda]

It's not his hard to plug in fans

[versed nimbus]

I just see one fan which I don't know what it is

[golden zenith]

technically, stuttering issue... from the beginning

[proven sundial]

Show us

Take a picture

[golden zenith]

but we exhausted all the options

[summer pagoda]

imagine that the fans are the cause for stuttering

[broken swift]

show us the side of the rig and the position of the unplugged fan

[golden zenith]

hey... can happen

[proven sundial]

Fuck me i have 12 fans in my case

I know all of them

[summer pagoda]

show us a pic of the cable management in the back too

[broken swift]

more rgb fans should give more fps, right?

[versed nimbus]

Y'all bullying me

[proven sundial]

Not bullying just asking riko

A bit of clarity is needed

[tall acorn]

true

[golden zenith]

Xomori not bully, he nice

[summer pagoda]

I set them to blue for cooler temps

[tall acorn]

atp you should just send them your entire PC so they can take a better look at it

[tall acorn]

also unrelated question, how much ram do you have in your computer?

[summer pagoda]

ship your pc so we can rebuild it

[summer pagoda]

perfect

[golden zenith]

iirc 32gb 6000m/t

[broken swift]

i use light blue and darker blue

[proven sundial]

You know which color i have emerald green and crimson red

[versed nimbus]

Okay so sys fan 2 shows in bios

But doesn't have anything

I guess that's normal

[summer pagoda]

which mobo do you have

[versed nimbus]

b650 aorus elite ax v2

[rancid loom]

don't really care abt RGB, it's just aesthetically pleasing but your setup your choice

[tall acorn]

manufacturers will drop god panels after they've already exhausted dropping semi-god panels throughout all the previous years

[proven sundial]

So 6 fan headers

[summer pagoda]

for reference

[versed nimbus]

I just expected it to be greyed out

[tall acorn]

exclusivity deal that iphones can't even realistically utilize, but companies do stuff like this to incentivize users to switch to their platform

[summer pagoda]

get your crayons out

[versed nimbus]

Cause the slot is not in use

[rancid loom]

wait are those 3 M.2 slots??

[broken swift]

yes?

[rancid loom]

https://tenor.com/view/endmin-endministrator-pengmin-shocked-surprised-gif-8860803684743085838

[golden zenith]

still... fk them for doing it like that

[versed nimbus]

There is nothing wrong

I just expected the option to be greyed out

[tall acorn]

🤷‍♂️

[summer pagoda]

ever seen a

[versed nimbus]

Also holy shit this is scuffed to change

[tall acorn]

better revenue for apple, better revenue for the game, worse satisfaction for everyone else

[zenith carbon]

has anyone else's arknights failed to boot today, ive been running it fine since launch but today i cant get past the "loading shaders" bar without the audio stuttering with the game crashing and sending me back to Gryphline launcher :(

[rancid loom]

lmao does this even work properly?

[tall acorn]

have you tried switching to DX11 and then back to vulkan? @zenith carbon

[golden zenith]

oh well, it is what it is... let end it here

[zenith carbon]

yeah i have, ive attempted multiple launches with both with the same result

[broken swift]

this thing can do 7 m2 (2 from expansion and 5 on mobo) 💀

[proven sundial]

Ai ai ai

[broken swift]

they also marketed their psu as AI psu

[rancid loom]

AI!

[rancid loom]

the PSU is intelligent now??

[proven sundial]

Okay guys wait

Let's help our brother in need

[rancid loom]

or we just sticking things AI to make it somewhat profitable??

[proven sundial]

So he can play

[rancid loom]

aight

about the loading shaders

[summer pagoda]

I'm still waiting for the cable management pic

[rancid loom]

@zenith carbon try doing this first and let us know what happens

[tidal wagon]

does anyone having the same issue on PC?

[golden zenith]

@rancid loom ^

[rancid loom]

use Cloudflare Warp

[rancid loom]

oh thanks lol didn't see that

[tidal wagon]

what is that? 😮

[rancid loom]

checked game integrity?

[versed nimbus]

Starting from 30% 40C to 90% 78C, then doing auto has some wack numbers

[rancid loom]

search it on Google, it's a DNS modifier. Don't worry, it's safe for you to do this

[proven sundial]

Eh it works don't think about it

[summer pagoda]

damn 90% at 78? I run 80% at 90

never seen 90 though

[versed nimbus]

That is what xomori recommended

[proven sundial]

Tjmax for 7800 x3d is 89

[summer pagoda]

xomori smort

[proven sundial]

So

[summer pagoda]

isn't 95?

[zenith carbon]

ive just tried it again, still getting the same result :c

the furthest ive gotten is the "loading shaders" bar completing and im waiting for endministrator to start walking for abt 3-5 seconds, and then audio starts cutting out, the game freezes up and im instantly back in the Gryphline launcher. other attempts i dont even get to shaders the audio gets choppy within 5s of booting and then it crashes...

[summer pagoda]

oh

[proven sundial]

No with newer bios revisions it changed

[rancid loom]

did you already check game integrity then?

[summer pagoda]

ig v-cache needs to run cooler

[versed nimbus]

So 50% on 50C

Is good?

[zenith carbon]

mhm ive done that as well, and i havent made any changes to my pc in the last 24 hrs since the game was working

[summer pagoda]

try it and see how you like the noise
kinda high if you ask me

[tall acorn]

check reliability monitor for crashes, @zenith carbon

[golden zenith]

might be gpu related issues then, what your spec?

[versed nimbus]

50% was kinda noisy

[zenith carbon]

you all are so kind and awesome btw <3

[summer pagoda]

I just leave it at 800rpm~ until the 60s
slow climb and then jump up at like 75c

[zenith carbon]

this is what i got, no clue what it all means T_T

Shit windows stopped working

[broken swift]

"few"

[tall acorn]

right click on the blue checkmark windows one

also go to the previous dates with X marks and screenshot the entire pages of those too

[zenith carbon]

you guys im scared

[rancid loom]

could you View technical detals on the summary that says Windows stopped working?

[tall acorn]

most likely some sort of driver issue

[golden zenith]

yes, 1million error is consider few

[broken swift]

well i guess ddu then?

[summer pagoda]

"you have 1 million virus on your computer"

[zenith carbon]

i should mention my laptop did black screen earlier

[summer pagoda]

[zenith carbon]

but ive attempted multiple launches since and no blackscreen

[proven sundial]

Ah windows integrity failure

[tall acorn]

there's a chance it's any driver

[rancid loom]

let's let him check on Event Viewer

[tall acorn]

what are your computer specs?

[zenith carbon]

what could be the cause of this? im using a Legion Pro 7i 5080

[tall acorn]

also are there any other error codes?

[golden zenith]

Lenovo.....

[tall acorn]

DDU will most likely fix your issue

[broken swift]

oh wait, are you using the latest driver that support re9? Many have reported bugs with that driver

[proven sundial]

so both windows integrity failure and a ddu i suppose

[tall acorn]

[rancid loom]

[tall acorn]

@zenith carbon check your driver version lol

[broken swift]

well it's another broken driver from nvidia

[zenith carbon]

is this what u needed to see?

[versed nimbus]

I set max on fan to 90%

Click to the next fan

Settings are set to 100% again

How do I avoid this

[zenith carbon]

where can i check this?

[summer pagoda]

is it in DC or PWM mode

[versed nimbus]

Pwm

[zenith carbon]

my nvidia driver is the most recent

[summer pagoda]

did you click save?

[tall acorn]

launch the nvidia control panel and click on system information @zenith carbon

[golden zenith]

detail please

[versed nimbus]

No but I haven't exited bios yet

[tall acorn]

you'll be able to see it in the details on the very right

send a screenshot of it

[summer pagoda]

didn't nvidia temp remove the latest driver from dl

[versed nimbus]

The other percentages are kept

[zenith carbon]

ver. 591.86

[golden zenith]

okay it not the broken one

[versed nimbus]

Just the last one is bumped to 100%

[broken swift]

so you're still safe then

[tall acorn]

they could've possibly downloaded it in the first few hours of release, but we can go with DDU anyways

[summer pagoda]

turns out they don't have it

[tall acorn]

@zenith carbon, you can follow this guide and use DDU to clean install new graphics drivers

hold on though

[zenith carbon]

holding on!! o7

[rancid loom]

he's using the latest

[summer pagoda]

not latest latest (removed)

[golden zenith]

im guessing you havent heard the news

[tall acorn]

latest drivers that released on the 26th got removed cause they were insanely broken

of feb

[tall acorn]

[summer pagoda]

lol not game ready good one

lmfao

[zenith carbon]

do you know what couldve happened in the last 24 hrs? i play many games and use a lot of design programs but endfield seems to be the only one affected

[summer pagoda]

AI drivers are a dystopian future

[proven sundial]

They are here now so

[versed nimbus]

It doesn't allow me to set it to 90%

[rancid loom]

more like a Huang-big failure

[versed nimbus]

I don't get it

[rancid loom]

@zenith carbon keep us updated once you're done using DDU, we are happy to wait

[proven sundial]

Endfield uses kernel level anti cheat and messes around with files on your pc

[summer pagoda]

I'm not familiar with gigabyte uefi so

[zenith carbon]

should i follow that guide then?

[rancid loom]

yes follow the Zencrox guide

[versed nimbus]

I guess I just throw 100% at 90 C or something

[rancid loom]

[proven sundial]

Yeah do that then

[tall acorn]

update images

[golden zenith]

there a lot of factors, we just narrowing down the possibility

• Game Server patches breaks the files
• KLAC breaks the files
• Windows will break the files
• Drivers update not properly updating
  Basically anything will affect, unless you on linux

[rancid loom]

KLAC and Windows competing who's better at breaking your computer

[zenith carbon]

would anyone be willing to help me with the guide through screenshare, a lot of windows are popping up and im a bit intimidated

[golden zenith]

oh god....

[zenith carbon]

im stuck on step 1 guys T_T

hold on

[proven sundial]

You can do it akira

@zenith carbon do you have a second device where you have discord installed and are logged in?

[rancid loom]

Zencrox saving my skin

[zenith carbon]

yeah my phone!

[rancid loom]

[zenith carbon]

or does it need to be a pc

[tall acorn]

phone works, one sec

[rancid loom]

phone works, coz you're gonna have to shutdown your PC eventually

[golden zenith]

any device you can communicate through discord other then your laptop is good enough

[zenith carbon]

thanks again everyone!! you all are wizards haha

[tall acorn]

alright let's start from scratch, @zenith carbon

restart Nvcleaninstall and start from here

[versed nimbus]

Btw what does temperature interval do?

[zenith carbon]

do i stop this?

[tall acorn]

when you're selecting the driver version, make sure you select 591.86, and not the latest one

[zenith carbon]

i followed all of the steps accurately so far i believe

shit

[proven sundial]

It indicates the time for the fans to switch

[zenith carbon]

i chose the latest one

[tall acorn]

latest is cooked right now

[zenith carbon]

okay i canceled

[versed nimbus]

So what do the numbers change?

Like what does 0-3 differ

[proven sundial]

Normally fan speed switching happens at 250 ms 500ms and so forth

[tall acorn]

once you reach the second menu, make sure you have these three options selected @zenith carbon

[zenith carbon]

then i select legacy control panel and nv platform controllers correct?

[tall acorn]

yup

[zenith carbon]

great

now the wait

[tall acorn]

proceed to the download, afterwards you'll see these options once it finishes @zenith carbon

[versed nimbus]

Okay should be quieter now

[zenith carbon]

almost there

done, i selected both and clicked next

[versed nimbus]

I don't know what I changed btw, but now on ak:e startup my second monitor goes black for a second

[tall acorn]

next show in folder

[zenith carbon]

done

10 items

[tall acorn]

forgot to click the download button to provide images, one sec lol

alright now click up here @zenith carbon

move the entire selected folder into your downloads folder

[zenith carbon]

okay done

ignore the folder names lol

[tall acorn]

now, Search msconfig in your windows start menu and open it, afterwards navigate to the boot tab and check the safe boot option. @zenith carbon

[tall acorn]

is that a shortcut to the folder?

or what is that

you need to relocate the entire actual folder itself

[zenith carbon]

i dragged it into downloads and thats what it looks like

shoot

[tall acorn]

otherwise it will spontaneously combust the second you close out of Nvcleaninstall

[zenith carbon]

do i cut the shortcut

[tall acorn]

delete the shortcut

[tall acorn]

ctrl + C the nvcleanstall folder

[zenith carbon]

ok done, i lost the original location though

[tall acorn]

and ctrl + v it into your downloads

[tall acorn]

[tall acorn]

click on show in folder again if you haven't closed out of it yet

otherwise you will have to redo the entire download proces again

[zenith carbon]

oh thanks

found it

[tall acorn]

okay

[zenith carbon]

where do i ctrl c?

im not able to select the folder

[tall acorn]

go to temp

at the top

[zenith carbon]

got it

[tall acorn]

you'll have the folder selected by default, might have to scroll down as well

[zenith carbon]

ctrl c the bottom right

[tall acorn]

Ctrl + C -> click on downloads and Ctrl + V

[tall acorn]

yup

[zenith carbon]

this looks right

[tall acorn]

looks good now

thankfully you sent a screenshot of what the folder looked like before we went into safe mode

[zenith carbon]

haha....

oh

[tall acorn]

next you can do this, and prepare to switch to your phone

[zenith carbon]

okay so i click safe boot and then ok?

[tall acorn]

yeah

[zenith carbon]

it selected minimal

[tall acorn]

yeah that's fine

[zenith carbon]

ok

new pop up

[tall acorn]

quite annoying tbh

click on no

[zenith carbon]

uh oh :(

i clicked no

[versed nimbus]

Win11 thingy

[tall acorn]

there's other ways to enter safe boot which shouldn't require your bitlocker rkey

[zenith carbon]

i wont pretend to know what a bitlocker rkey is

im still on the boot window

[versed nimbus]

I don't know what it is either but its a setting in your bios that you have to enable for win11

[tall acorn]

looks like there's a way around it, but just to be safe you can find your bitlocker recovery key here if you need to use it in the future

page link
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/find-your-bitlocker-recovery-key-6b71ad27-0b89-ea08-f143-056f5ab347d6

recovery key sign in link
https://account.microsoft.com/devices/recoverykey

[tall acorn]

windows encrypts your drive and requires a recovery key to unlock it when setting up a new computer, or apparently in cases like this on windows 11

but you need a microsoft account to access it

most likely won't have to do that though

[zenith carbon]

i feel so clueless right now @tall acorn the way you just know all this 😭

[tall acorn]

i'm aware of the bitlocker recovery key and how windows ends up screwing users over in 99% of cases, but i wasn't aware that there's a prompt now when changing boot configuration on W11

[golden zenith]

it the amount of bs that people to us tbh

[zenith carbon]

im guessing we're avoiding the bitlocker route then

[tall acorn]

yeah

[zenith carbon]

ready for the next course of action 🫡

[tall acorn]

you can just go straight into safe mode from the recovery environment, skipping changing the boot configuration, but i'm triple checking to make sure you don't get prompted for the key after exiting safe mode

[tall acorn]

sure, give me one minute

[zenith carbon]

of course, didn't mean to rush at all

[zenith carbon]

i appreciate it~

[golden zenith]

guys help.... Bao torturing me

[rancid loom]

and here I thought bao will be the one who's tortured into troubleshooting

[zenith carbon]

what if i just turn off my pc and hope everything goes back to normal in the morning

surely thats a method

[golden zenith]

doesnt work like that, Reliability Mon already shows windows instability

gotta fix those instability to make sure the system is running smooth

[zenith carbon]

is it caused by arknights then? or did i mess something up

[tall acorn]

honestly the safest scenario is just to make sure you know the recovery key before we proceed @zenith carbon

https://account.microsoft.com/devices/recoverykey

[toxic atlas]

So what's his issue?

[zenith carbon]

i did watch some sketchy youtube vidoes on optimization

probably a bad idea

[tall acorn]

gpu driver related crashes from what we've seen so far

[golden zenith]

...

[toxic atlas]

What does the dump say?

[tall acorn]

haven't read it

[golden zenith]

nvr follow a video, must understand what they do

[tall acorn]

go there @zenith carbon, and take a picture or write the long ass recovery key down temporarily

[zenith carbon]

okay recovery keys secured

[tall acorn]

we'll boot into safe mode from recovery mode, and if you get prompted you can just enter the key

[zenith carbon]

i have 4 of them

[tall acorn]

alright

[zenith carbon]

i emailed it to myself and took a pic on the phone

[rancid loom]

wait he has bitlocker drive encryption on????

[tall acorn]

windows 11

[golden zenith]

yes

[rancid loom]

fck

[tall acorn]

[rancid loom]

well not his fault anyway

[golden zenith]

Windows moment...

[rancid loom]

it's Windows 11 so... yeah

[tall acorn]

let me see if i can find the screenshots i've already sent here

would've thought i'd mark them to reference later

[zenith carbon]

okay so we're going back to this right

[tall acorn]

yup

[zenith carbon]

but yes this time?

[tall acorn]

not that though

click no

[zenith carbon]

oh

yeah its old pic

i havent done it yet

im here rn

[tall acorn]

click cancel

[zenith carbon]

done

[tall acorn]

alright

now to enter the recovery environment, you'll have to hold shift and click the restart button in the start menu on your computer, @zenith carbon

next, click here

and you can press whichever number corresponds to safe mode

[rancid loom]

i believe it's number 4

[zenith carbon]

i mightve screwed up

[rancid loom]

no you're on the right track, just press 4

[tall acorn]

elaborate?

[tall acorn]

it's different sometimes in very specific scenarios i believe

[zenith carbon]

i held shift and clicked this

[rancid loom]

understandable

[tall acorn]

yup

[versed nimbus]

Thats fine

[zenith carbon]

but i cancelled the restart

[versed nimbus]

Do it again?

[tall acorn]

you can just do it again whenever you're ready

[zenith carbon]

oh okay

[north moat]

What is your problem?

[zenith carbon]

oh yay my screens blue now

[versed nimbus]

He is running ddu

etc

[north moat]

[zenith carbon]

click 4?

[tall acorn]

follow this @zenith carbon

yeah restart

it is indeed a bit different

[zenith carbon]

i click restart?

4 did nothing

[tall acorn]

yup

[zenith carbon]

alright

[tall acorn]

afterwards you'll probably be able to click 4 - or whatever number it says on the screen

[rancid loom]

press 4 after the restart

[zenith carbon]

ur playing chess w my pc hahaha

[tall acorn]

yeah..

[zenith carbon]

good thing i have a key 😈

[tall acorn]

enter your recovery key

[tall acorn]

[rancid loom]

ah I think this is where you enter the recovery key

why the fck does Win11 even have this shit anyway

[tall acorn]

it's useful but causes problems sometimes

[versed nimbus]

Why have I never seen that screen?

[rancid loom]

I think the only use for this would be in a corporate setting

[versed nimbus]

Cause I log in with my microsoft acc?

[zenith carbon]

enter after ive put in the key?

[tall acorn]

yup

[zenith carbon]

ive enabled safe mode

[rancid loom]

more like your storage drive isn't locked by Bitlocker

[tall acorn]

i mean if someone steals your computer or laptop, you wouldn't want them to have access to literally everything on your computer

it's great for that reason

[golden zenith]

so that people wont steal your data inside physically... meanwhile just wipe the hard drive & use it as my own

[zenith carbon]

its asking for my pin

do i oblige

[rancid loom]

Understood, but there are also third party softwares who can do this right?

[tall acorn]

can still cause problems though if you are for some reason unable to access the key

[rancid loom]

true

[tall acorn]

yeah you can log in now, and we're onto the DDU step

assuming you've already downloaded DDU

[zenith carbon]

All of my desktop icons are humongous

[zenith carbon]

and yes

[tall acorn]

alright

disconnect from your ethernet and wifi @zenith carbon

otherwise windows will interrupt the process

[rancid loom]

I mean he's on safe mode without networking but I guess that's more on preventing Windows immediately installing new drivers once he logs back in

[zenith carbon]

i dont see the usual wifi toggle on the bottom right

should i fix the enlargement issue

[tall acorn]

next, Run DDU as an administrator and select Clean and do NOT restart, and Clean Shader Cache (Only), after selecting your dedicated GPU device type. @zenith carbon

[tall acorn]

no

[rancid loom]

that's normal if you're on Windows Safe mode

just go to DDU

[tall acorn]

looks like you're fine

[zenith carbon]

roger that

[tall acorn]

let me know once that's finished

[tall acorn]

yup

[zenith carbon]

im so f ing scared rn

[tall acorn]

it's fine

[rancid loom]

press Run

it's okay

[zenith carbon]

i click through till finish right

does destination folder matter

[tall acorn]

yeah

not really

[zenith carbon]

okay im in

[tall acorn]

but place it somewhere you can reach it again

[rancid loom]

wait isn't the DDU a portable one?

[tall acorn]

you're... in?

[rancid loom]

or is it that he downloaded the installer one

[zenith carbon]

yes…???

[rancid loom]

anyways

[zenith carbon]

ur scaring me

i clicked the linkk

[tall acorn]

now follow this @zenith carbon

select NVIDIA as your GPU and clean the shader cache, also clean and do NOT restart

[zenith carbon]

i clicked the first one “Clean and do NOT restart” but it froze the app

is it doing its thing

[tall acorn]

continue waiting

[zenith carbon]

alright

click nothing right

[tall acorn]

could take 2 - 5 minutes

[zenith carbon]

hands off the mouse

[tall acorn]

doesn't really matter

[zenith carbon]

okay i will wait

[tall acorn]

for me the longest it ever took was 1 - 2 minutes

[tall acorn]

click no

next you can clean the shader cache

[zenith carbon]

that was quick

that was for the shader cache^

[golden zenith]

meanwhile one of the Memtest i did for a person took 4 days 🙃

[tall acorn]

after you clean the shader cache, you may exit

[zenith carbon]

alright

now i see this

[tall acorn]

all to push that extra 0.079% clock speed

[tall acorn]

you can close out of the notepad

[rancid loom]

why did it take THAT long?

[tall acorn]

to ensure stability

[zenith carbon]

alright, is it normal to have a black wallpaper

[rancid loom]

4 days is nuts

[tall acorn]

depending on what they were testing

[rancid loom]

on safe mode yes it is

[golden zenith]

128GB of RAM

[tall acorn]

yeah, in safe mode the majority of windows features are temporarily disabled

[golden zenith]

or i cant remember

[zenith carbon]

i see, good to know

(im never doing this again)

[tall acorn]

lol

[toxic atlas]

Literally just windows things

[rancid loom]

if your PC is in deep shambles, you may have to do it again in the future

[tall acorn]

next, locate the Nvcleanstall folder and run the .exe inside as an administrator @zenith carbon

[zenith carbon]

i need to know who the culprit behind all this after its all said and done

[golden zenith]

sooner or later you come back... due to windows

[hazy venture]

funny how safe mode can just kill your day if you don't know advanced computer stuff

[zenith carbon]

jesus

[rancid loom]

but ofc I hope that doesn't happen

[versed nimbus]

Funny how my pc can just kill my day

[hazy venture]

also hi y'all

[versed nimbus]

[hazy venture]

dance_rainbow

[rancid loom]

delete system32 in safe mode

[golden zenith]

you can ask Microslop

[zenith carbon]

i dont see a .exe

[tall acorn]

the setup

my fault

[hazy venture]

just safe mode causing your login profile to be broken ^^

[toxic atlas]

Did y'all ever end up checking the blue screen minidump?

[zenith carbon]

run as admin right

the green check

[tall acorn]

maybe after they get back into normal mode

[tall acorn]

yup

[hazy venture]

https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/1fw3t2t/comment/lyvnej0/?translated=1&show=original

what i'm refering to btw

[zenith carbon]

why isnt computer stuff more intuitive in 2026 i built my first pc in 2018 and it was just as confusing

[hazy venture]

am i the only one on 23H2 lol

[hazy venture]

cuz 24H2 causes weird bugs and 25H2 didn't came out yet at the time

[tall acorn]

the only intuitive thing you need to know in 2026 is that you don't need to know anything

and companies are steadily advancing features and making everything easier and better for users as time goes on

[rancid loom]

uh....iirc 23H2 is currently not supported by Microslop

[hazy venture]

what?

[tall acorn]

you may rest easy knowing all is well

[tall acorn]

agree and continue

make sure you select clean installation in the future menus

[rancid loom]

Microslop is pushing for PCs (namely Windows 11) to be onto 24H2

[golden zenith]

nope, not yet. he nvr announce BSOD, just black screen freezes.

[rancid loom]

at least 24H2

[hazy venture]

😒

well i have 23H2 and it's not wanting me to upgrade so..

i installed 23H2 on my own

[golden zenith]

we try that later Max

[toxic atlas]

The fuck you mean

On my work laptop

[hazy venture]

huh

[rancid loom]

better not upgrade to 25H2 tho

[tall acorn]

[hazy venture]

tf is that

i don't have that

[tall acorn]

select custom

[toxic atlas]

If it even fucking installs in the first place lmfao

[rancid loom]

25H2 is more AI slop shoved into your asses

[hazy venture]

i just have that security thing rn

[toxic atlas]

It's just pain on my work laptop

God I'm glad I'm not using windows at home

[hazy venture]

lol

[rancid loom]

well just stay there. it's better if you do

[hazy venture]

maybe it's cuz i'm using atlas

[golden zenith]

Ahhhhhh, the infamous Windows will force push the update

[tall acorn]

want to mention that i was kidding here @zenith carbon

[rancid loom]

or better yet just go back to Windows 10

[hazy venture]

dw i didn't even know windows could update that way, never seen it

[tall acorn]

yup

[rancid loom]

like I did

[tall acorn]

select that

[hazy venture]

NO

[versed nimbus]

cleange install

[zenith carbon]

it was very comforting to hear you say that dont worry 🫶🏻

[rancid loom]

hey I went back to Windows 10 without a hitch (I'm lying there was a bit of a hitch) but it has been better

[toxic atlas]

https://youtu.be/IQQRJTAoB_A

[hazy venture]

lol it keeps duplicating everytime i search for updates 😂

[tall acorn]

every other month microsoft critically breaks something

[rancid loom]

true

[tall acorn]

and just yesterday nvidia released a driver which broke a bunch of stuff

[zenith carbon]

do you work in the tech industry? @tall acorn

[proven sundial]

@toxic atlas fusion compute on metal works by putting it into the terminal it auto installed 😂

[tall acorn]

not atm

[hazy venture]

huh

[rancid loom]

these companies glorifying AI stuff and using it in their development process, these disgusts me

[toxic atlas]

Lolwut

[hazy venture]

wdym fusion-

what about me

[proven sundial]

I can leave windows behind now

[tall acorn]

let me know once the installation is finished @zenith carbon

[hazy venture]

i don't think i'm going linux until they release an easy distro plug and play

[zenith carbon]

did you acquire all this knowledge yourself :o

[toxic atlas]

Bazzite...

[hazy venture]

ITS NOT PLUG AND PLAY

[zenith carbon]

will do 👍🏼

[hazy venture]

i installed bazzite as my first linux distro

just pain

[toxic atlas]

How fucking plug-n-play you want your OS to be?

[hazy venture]

maybe not as much as other distros

[golden zenith]

i trust Max here

[proven sundial]

Wdym ?

[hazy venture]

FUCKING WINDOWS

[toxic atlas]

Grab Nobara then

Bit less of a headache

[hazy venture]

had to install bunch of shit on different website that i didn't even understand

[zenith carbon]

yk for a split second i forgot this was even about arknights

maybe i should thank arknights for saving my pc

[toxic atlas]

We're just general tech support at this point

[versed nimbus]

Tech support

[zenith carbon]

yes 😭😭

[versed nimbus]

but can't help me

[hazy venture]

even with my brother who's a good at linux i didn't even stand a fucking day

EVEN REINSTALLING WINDOWS WAS A PAIN

[zenith carbon]

@tall acorn

[hazy venture]

mental support 😭

[toxic atlas]

Reboot time

[hazy venture]

good

[zenith carbon]

close?

[toxic atlas]

Yeah
Close, reboot Windows

[hazy venture]

the thing is, you can't play some games on linux due to anti-cheat (looking at you call of duty)

so i couldn't play.

[proven sundial]

You mean call of ai ?

[toxic atlas]

People play the new CoD's?

[zenith carbon]

reboot as in do a normal restart?

[hazy venture]

no, regular warzone.

[toxic atlas]

Yeah, just restart

[tall acorn]

you can exit safe mode by restarting your computer now

[hazy venture]

imagine that doesn't get him into normal boot

[proven sundial]

I am glad linux does not allow klac at all honestly

[toxic atlas]

OH MY FUCKING GOD

[zenith carbon]

okay it looks normal

[tall acorn]

yeah that happens occasionally here lol

[toxic atlas]

It's the first time I see this shit

Like ever

[hazy venture]

wtf

[zenith carbon]

should i try launching ak

[hazy venture]

lmao

you're on 24H2??

[toxic atlas]

LMFAO

[hazy venture]

max

[tall acorn]

yup

[proven sundial]

Yay install corruption max

[zenith carbon]

sounds like a great time 😭

[toxic atlas]

Yes
About to get updated to 25h2

[hazy venture]

lmao

[golden zenith]

sigh

[rancid loom]

lmfao

[toxic atlas]

Hey it's my work laptop

[tall acorn]

there's a solid chance your issue is fixed, if it isn't, we'll look into it a little deeper

[toxic atlas]

That's me taking the rest of the day off

[zenith carbon]

should i run gryphline as admin

[hazy venture]

should've got atlas OS on top of windows so that it doesn't do that type of shit

[rancid loom]

you'd rather run the Endfield.exe as admin

[toxic atlas]

It's a work device
Can't just do that shit

[broken swift]

It was double that update amount for me when i opened my laptop this week
