[Info Request] Red Screen Of Death - Information Request

[ Edited ]
Community Manager (retired)

Greetings Everybody,

 

We understand that users are currently experiencing an issue with AMD cards and Windows 8, where during a map change, there is a crash to desktop, often associated with a "Red Screen of Death". We are currently investigating this issue, but would like to gather some information to resolve this issue as quickly as we can.

 

Possible Solutions:

 

We have received some reports that rolling your drivers back from the beta drivers to 13.9 should address this issue. Additionally, completely uninstalling your graphics drivers, and reinstalling the most current stable release has also shown some promise. However, if you have tried this, and are still running into the dreaded Red Screen, then we need to gather a bit more information from you.

 

Information Request:

 

The information we need is mostly related to your computer specifications. While I understand you may have posted this in another thread, for the sake of organization and ensuring we are gathering information from individuals who are still experiencing this issue, we would love it if you could post this again.

 

The information we'll need:

Graphics card

Operating System Version

Current Driver Version

 

Additionally, we would like you to post the following:

 

1. Open your Start menu and type "view reliability history" into the search box.

2. Select the most recent bf4.exe failure, denoted by the red circle with the white X in it.

3. Double-click the related Critical Event under Source.

4. Choose copy to clipboard on the bottom and post the full information of the reliability history in here.

 

We apologize for the frustration this is no doubt causing, and appreciate your time in bringing us this information! 

 

-Stiv

 

/update:

For owners of an AMD ATI video-card, could you please try to install following new Beta driver:

Okay, did some thorough testing.

 

Radeon HD6950 2GB

Windows 8.1 x64

13.9. Also tried on 13.11 Beta6 and Beta7, same problem still.

 

Tried running in compatibility mode aswell - Windows 8. Crashes for me when map switching (so no red screen, just crashes to desktop). However, it hangs more often, crashes more often midgame.

 

This is the most recent crash, but it seems to be a 'normal' crash to desktop. If you get a red screen, a failure like that is not recorded in the reliability history!

The information we'll need:

Graphics card: HIS HD 7870

Operating System Version: WIN 8.1 64Bit

Current Driver Version: I've tried 13.9 WHQL, 13.10 WHQL, 13.11 Beta3, 13.11 Beta6, 13.11 Beta7

 

Additionally, we would like you to post the following:

 

I don't think this information are usefull because the "reliability history" only shows normal C2D and not a full system crash caused by the ATI Drivers.

 

Here is the analyze of my dump file instead:

EDIT: Also a funny thing is I only get blue screens when it map changes while i'm streaming to twitch.tv instead of a red screen. Not sure if this helps but could lead to something i guess. This happened the other day but i didn't think much of it at the time but it got to the point when i just stopped streamming all together and got the scary red sceen for the first time instead :/

MSI Twin Frozr III - Radeon HD 7950

Windows 8.1

Currently have 13.9, tried 13.11 beta 6 and also had the same problem

 

The information below is the most recent information that was available in the Reliability History, however, the game has crashed serveral times since then, both red screen of death and typical application crash.  I have tried both x86 and x64 BF4 executables.
