Nvidia Rage & Delicious Tears.

[Stath]

Help me Arelith Forums, you're my only hope.

"The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver due to exceeding the windows TimeOut limit and is unable to continue. The application must close. Error Code: 7."

After like 10 minutes of playing Arelith I'll get hit with either the game freezing and locking up, or a simple crash to desktop with this message.

Is there a fix for this or should I just start dragging the computer behind my car while I drive?

Well, as I said on another thread, it helps to have a OpenGL Interceptor.

Another fix might be downloading some old driver. Not really suggested.
Or try using a virtual machine with WINXP. Not suggested either.

Thank you! Sorry for not searching for it, couldn't see for tears.
I've tried the GL Interceptor! I'll let you know how it goes.

Aight, that'd be gut. Might or might not be able to fix it, but at least for me it's helped some.
Earlier, I couldn't even load certain areas due to instant crashes.
Now, it does it randomly if I alt-tab and re-fullscreen.

I had that same error when I was streaming my Neverwinter Nights gaming. Turning off the Open Broadcaster Software fixed it for me.

Although chances are small that you're streaming as well I guess

Thank you so much for the help guys. I think it MIGHT be an entirely unrelated memory issue causing everything! I managed to wrangle an old laptop and get that working, so at least I can play Arelith now!
