UPDATING EVE NG UPDATE

Device Manager, running as administrator, would fail on the device with an ‘Access Denied’ error if not in Safe Mode. The NVIDIA application would just give an ‘Install Failed’ message, not too helpful. This is the first and major sign something is amiss if you are having the same issue.

UPDATING EVE NG INSTALL

If Windows boots without a ‘proper’ graphics driver it uses a generic windows OS driver so you don’t have a blank screen.Īt this point, Issue was when I tried to install the drivers, I could only do so while running in Safe Mode. That, and my motherboard has an integrated AMD, so I wasn’t sure if it was causing conflicts.

While I was in there at about the 25th time, I cycled through all of the driver options, just to make sure my system was really clean of any graphics drivers. Its a decent tool, I know, I used it about 30 times in all of this. To uninstall NVIDIA drivers, recommended to get tool DDUninstaller, boot to safe mode, and run the tool. When it comes to drivers, I operate on premise if its not broken, don’t fix it. I would recommend disable this functionality.

UPDATING EVE NG UPDATE

At that point you really are looking at something outside of EVE.ĭigging in Device Manager, I had discovered Windows Update messed up the driver when trying to update. I even did the full EVE wipe, re-download, re-install to no results. Last, I ran through other items seen on forums, like ‘verify’ the eve shared cache, clean it. Again, mine did, when broken but check in event you have easier fix on your hands. Next, run DXDiag on your windows box, verify your graphics adapter and proper directX versions are supported/running. Mine did, even when ‘broken’ but if missing would be a why that error 12 might show. This log should have an entry, or several, of display adapters. You can parse through everything in that log(as I did, its a great read on what all the client is doing) or just filter to the error/red items.ĭigging into the EVE directory, you can find logs for the Launcher everytime you start it. Symptoms: Loglite tool for client gives error ‘No valid display adapter found’ error code 12. NVIDIA wasn’t helpful at all, just responded to my ticket telling me to do steps that I already had clearly stated doing in my ticket.Īnyways…for ‘Game Client Doesn’t Start from the Launcher’ here is my problem and resolution:

UPDATING EVE NG HOW TO

The ‘help’ from EVE was probably about as good as they could with issue, telling me how to verify that it wasn’t ‘EVE’. On that note, after getting a little less grumpy and waiting after initial post, EVE support did contact me 3 days after ticket was put in, credited me a few days game time saying that wasn’t an acceptable level of support/response. Really, serious, if you aren’t comfortable with the possibility of making a computer inoperable and rebuilding it from blank drive up, don’t do some of these things. On the ticket I submitted I also attacked a DxDiag and LogLite file of one of the freezes.So, after trouble tickets with both EVE and NVIDIA, and not so much helpful information there I spent game time the last few days figuring out the problem, and finding and fixing isn’t recommended for the faint of heart with computers. I even did a complete un- and reinstall of the EVE client without any succes.

UPDATING EVE NG DRIVERS

Ive verified the cache files, did a full virus scan, looked for any quarantained EVE files, complete defrag of all HDDs, checked all drivers but none have updated in the last weeks or have a recent update available. I have not been able to link it to any action. This happens everywhere between 0 and 10 minutes after starting the client. I am therefore unable to enter task manager and have to do a reboot in order to get EVE to shut down.

When it does, I can alt-tab trough all the other programs and background programs keep working fine, however no matter what I do EVE stays on top. Since 2 days my EVE client keeps randomly freezin over. Let me start off by saying that I couldn’t really find the right forum/sub to post this in and that I’ve already submitted a ticket about this issue without any response.
