big jit.window / 4 beamers / NVidia driver error
Hello,
in some ways my setup is very similar to Brantiko :
https://cycling74.com/forums/just-play-a-video-efficient/
I want to display a big window 4096x768 across 4 XGA (1024x768) beamers.
I have several videoplanes :
- a big 1 in background, with a jit.movie playing 1 video (4096x768 ; 1 min ; photo JPEG 50% ; 20 fps = 270 MB)
- 16 small in foreground. each is 220x270 has a jit.movie playing a small file (220x270 ; 8 sec ; photo jpeg 25% ; 15 fps ; 800 KB)
I've just finished the patcher and everything was ok until I stress tested the machine with all the beamers on during several hours.
Yesterday after 6 hours running without problem, an error occurred. Today the same problem came after 5 minutes.
Here is the error message :
"NVidia Open GL Driver :
A TDR has been detected. The application must close. Error Code 7"
There's a link to nvidia web site, it refers to TDR a Windows tool to prevent screen freezes...
An other error today :
"NVidia Open GL Driver :
Unable to recover from a kernel exception. The application must close. Error Code 3"
I'm actually downloading the last drivers from NVidia to see if it changes something...
Someone has an idea ?
Thanks
Alain.

my setup :
Core i7 Haswell
16 GB RAM
SSD 256 GB
GPU NVidia GTX 660 , 2 GB >> 4 XGA beamers
Windows 8.1
Max 7.0.6 32 bits
Quicktime 7.7.8
My GTX660Ti had a similar issue under heavy load: http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3007
Turned out to be a hardware failure.
Ouchh...
It sounds bad...
I'll try the last drivers in case...
Do you think I could have damage the GPU with my Patcher ?
If a program damages the GPU the GPU was already faulty to start with. If you haven't been overclocking, then nothing you throw at it should break it.
I replaced mine under warranty for a GTX670 when it happened.
OK, that's what I thought.
Thanks.
Mine isn't under warranty anymore. I'll have to replace it, and I'm starting to wonder how.
That's why I join an old topic :

I 'm wondering what s with that 660(ti) series... I broke 2 under warranty, made by MSI.
Mine is made by EVGA.
