BaconIcecream Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Randomly in a mission my screen will go black, I lose audio and my monitor comes up with no signal. Have to reset my computer. It was happening ever couple of days or so and today it happened every time I tried to do a mission. I tried a bunch of stuff, fiddling with settings, changing to windowed and disabling multi thread rendering, updating drivers, verifying cache. After I verified cache it seemed to fix it, but it happened again just now. This problem only happens in Warframe, I just started playing again, never used to happen before.

likeitsillegal Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Something similar happens to me, though the audio usually comes back but my monitor remains on no signal. If I CTRL+ALT+DEL to bring up process manager and force-close Warframe, things return to normal. From my experience it seems to be the GPU driver crashing. However, considering our symptoms are a bit different, I don't know for sure if our problems root from the same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconIcecream Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 I can't even ctrl alt del, the monitor isn't getting signal anymore after it happens. I've waited a minute or so after it happens to see if there's a change, nothing happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconIcecream Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Minor update, tried different power outlets, cleaned the dust out of the computer, ran stress tests in FurMark. No change, and the problem remains unique to Warframe. It happened in a menu for the first time today, however. PSU is a 550w Corsair less than a year old. Not against buying a new GPU but I'd like to know it's the problem first, I don't have a spare GPU to swap it out for though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darklink68 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 This is also happening to me. Running i5 3570k 8gb ram gtx970. What drivers are you running, OP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reithan.PC Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I have a similar issue. Whenever I run Void missions after a few minutes it appears that the game is closing/crashing, and it goes back to my desktop, but the game remains open, accepts input & plays sounds...it's just invisible. Like, I just see my desktop, but I can hear my weapons fire when I press attack, etc. Tried a bunch of different settings (fullsctree, windowed borderless, 64bit/32bit, dx10, 11, 9, multithreaded & not), can't make it stop happening. Very frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrongLad Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) I'm having the exact same issue and symptoms. Start a mission and within 3 minutes computer: -freezes -Black screen -audio stuck in .5 second loop -can't ctrl+alt+del -computer restarts automatically (After system failure) It's not giving me a memory dumb, so no BSoD. Just did a Local game Cache verification, missing 4.8 GB of data?Additional 800 MB through the Client. I've heard recently the developers have been doing some Directx10 work? Not sure.

Steams local files on their server are ALWAYS behind than the clients version from DE. Stop verifying through steam since it's useless. Just use the launcher's verification. Just seems more like a system crash rather than a WF issue. But no dumbs is kind of weird. I know there are 2 kinds of dumps, for the BSOD and just for system application ones. The 2nd one is located in C:\Windows\LiveKernelReports\WATCHDOG I'm getting an similar issue. Getting at random times black screens although my audio/game keeps running. It's like my amd driver crashes and then recovers although it can't recover it for the game. But if I look at my system logs and such there's barely anything there except for a log that always the same when this happens. LiveKernel errors. No ACEevent log errors (amd driver logs) just the shutdown and restart logs. Only getting this issue with WF, not in any other game that I play, and I play like a dozen of games currently, even more intense ones.

Random286 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 This has been happening to me too. I have noticed it doesn't happen on missions with small map sizes ie. defence, interception, dojo, conclaves and dark sector conflict. Maybe it has an issue with loading larger maps?

DuskStride Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I'm having this problem as well. If I try to log in with Intel Turbo Boost on it crashes right away, but if I log in without it I get through to loading a mission before it crashes. :/ Only happening with Warframe. I can still play all my other games just fine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poiluchette Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hi i'm having this kind of problems too , the game running perfectly but yesterday or very early today , i got the black screen for unknow reason , the audio works but i can't even load my pseudo or anything else . If someone has a solution it would be helpfull . ( sorry for my bad english not my main language) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JafoZero Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I'm getting this too...and I'm fairly certain its something with Warframe itself as prior to the 15.5.4 or 15.5.5 I wasn't having any issues with the game. At the same time, I'm easily able to play saints row 4 on higher settings for several hours without experiencing a crash that would indicate that its my video card or a power supply issue like I was originally assuming it was. Regular missions I can do for about an hour before a crash and it seems like Archwing stuff is just an excuse to get my machine to lock up and restart before I get 30secs in. I can't diagnose a BSOD cause there isn't one and I can't send in a crash report cause the game doesn't crash either...so I'm having a difficult time troubleshooting a cause.

Egaheer_687 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 my first post on forum is about bug :D so first ill say i love the changed valkyr moves (couple updates pased since that was changed but it still amaze me). To the point is that I maybe foud a glitch in that part course game tends to freeze when i use valkyr on survivals or some other longer sessions during hysteria animation, aroud 20-30 min. i cant send bug report after that so i leave a post here.

saltygr33n Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I've recently started experiencing the same problem as the OP, which started a week earlier from today and usually always happens when I am soloing, haven't had any crash as long as I am in a party thus far.

Hooot Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Hi, I got the same black screen randomly with any tilesets or weapons , even archwing missions solo or multi. I try physx ON/OFF , multi thread ON/OFF, downclocking gpu/memory and nothing changes. So i've stop play...because it piss me off. Hope they will find a fix.

Kurnuttaja Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Ive had this issue for long, it happens in different forms but one common symptom is black screen and signal loss from monitor. Im 100% certain its caused by GPU drivers crashing, as seen from Windows error logs, every crash adds a new "video device error". Sometimes it just crashes drivers and recovers, results in only 1 bccode 117 entry, sometimes its followed by a bccode 116 BSOD, like the most recent one I just had. When the BSOD happens it does not display the blue screen but it does restart my PC, BSOD always happens if sound loops during black screen. The non-BSOD may either crash the game and open the crash reporter or keeps the game running but without being able to see anything but desktop. Its also completely random, sometimes I can play for 2 hours straight without crash, sometimes I crash in 5 minutes. Havent had this happen in any other game yet but its not a warframe specific crash either, it just seems to happen more in warframe than in other games.

BrazilianJoe Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 It was not as bad with a few drivers generations back, but Nvidia-wise, driver 347.09 is the worst when playing with a GeForce 765M. Other games work well though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another thread, someone said it wasn't just nVidia since they had an AMD card. So it's more than likely something with the Evolution Engine that they need to fix that's causing problems with both nVidia and AMD drivers. I'm getting different crashes using different drivers personally. The latest GeForce drivers only partially crash and the engine keeps running and I have to force exit. The last stable drivers before that just plain crash and generate a report. Edited January 9, 2015 by Ceryk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't tried 15.9 yet thou but the changelog doesn't mention anything about stability or anything of value to me in this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
