BoogieMan82 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Beta drivers are not a good idea unless your system is extremely unstable. https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/64026-diagnosing-system-crashes/ (See #1) That being said, the new 326.19 Beta Drivers WILL cause Warframe to Crash/Hangup on Startup. DO NOT USE OR INSTALL. If you have already installed, I suggest rolling back to: 320.49 WHQL How do I make sure not to install Beta Drivers for Nvidia? If you have GeForce Experience: -Open GeForce Experience -Preferences > Updates > Make sure "Include Beta Updates" is unchecked If you don't have GeForce Experience: -Open Nvidia Control Panel -System Update > Update Your System Drivers > Make Sure "Include Beta Updates" is Unchecked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0Pinger Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Since they added the resource hog app that runs in back ground, not a chance of that. Currently still on 314.22 as the newer drivers dropped my FPS dramatically in defence missions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sysolos Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Is the crash/hangup issue with that beta driver something that just recently came up? The reason I ask is because I have been running that driver since it was released on the 18th and have not had any problems with Warframe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plznohurtme Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Since they added the resource hog app that runs in back ground, not a chance of that. Currently still on 314.22 as the newer drivers dropped my FPS dramatically in defence missions In all honesty you should be doing a custom install of your drivers when it comes to the nvidia stuff anyways. On my system I never update anything other than the drivers for graphics and physx, because you can omit geforce experience/hd audio/3d vision etc if you're not using them. Is the crash/hangup issue with that beta driver something that just recently came up? The reason I ask is because I have been running that driver since it was released on the 18th and have not had any problems with Warframe. I'm assuming it's actually an issue that only effects some people and/or some setups. I have zero problems with these drivers as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeuro_Dragovar Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 I'm running on 320.49(non-beta) and i still get crashes / hang ups. no one seems too know why. Already did some diagnostics. Nothing out of the ordinary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrion Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 i have the 320.49 and it crashes my game everytime. still using the best nvidia drivers AKA the 314.22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoogieMan82 Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 Sometimes doing a "clean" install of the drivers helps as well. It removes ALL old information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aim4it Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I've been using this beta driver with no problems at all. It maybe be specific to your card in combination with this driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nanogenesis Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I'm using 326.19, and it just works fine. Have not yet gotten a crash due to driver reset. The game even works fine on 326.01. The ONLY issue is that, the game crashes if I enable SLI on both drivers. 314.22 didn't have this issue, so yeah 314.22 WHQL drivers for us 500 users is still gold in Warframe.

[DE]Linkski Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I'm not quite sure a PSA is necessary if most of the people commenting on this thread claim that the drivers are working fine. We've been using the 326.19 beta drivers for quite awhile now and have yet to experience any crashes. You may want to try submitting a support ticket with your log / dxdiag.
