HLDJ and nvlddmkm problem

Hi Renegade,

Not sure if this is HLDJ, Source or NVIDIA related, but it only seems to occur when I use HLDJ, so I'll give it a shot.

When playing TF2, HLDJ works perfectly. However, after an indeterminate amount of playtime (anywhere from 15 minutes to 45 minutes) after first playing back a sound or enabling HLDJ, my nvidia driver crashes. The text in the event viewer is not helpful, just contains;

Code: Select all

Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
I know that HLDJ has something to do with it because I can play TF2 without this crash if I don't run or enable HLDJ.

Any ideas? I can give you more specs if you need them.

Ta :)

Hi, I can't offer much help other than to say it's probably a driver issue. HLDJ doesn't make any calls into the display driver directly. Do you have a dedicated sound card, or is it on-board? You can try copy-pasting the crash details here (in the crash dialog there should be a link to show the technical details of the crash report)... other than that, try re-installing your display drivers.
