Hey LocusDio,

Just throwing a long shot, does your motherboard have any onboard graphics options and do you see anything like that in device manager in display adapters? I just thought it could be worth checking out, there is an option via the nvidia panel to choose a gpu for each application and if there were other gfx devices in your system MoI could be using a weird one.

Also, it could be worth checking out if uninstalling gpu drivers completely and letting windows run on the default display adapter driver for your card solves the issue. Or even booting into safe mode and see if MoI crashes or not.

Again, just things that popped into my head and I would try in your shoes, I do not mean to make you pointlessly jump through hoops to make MoI work.

Good luck! :|

Ah thanks for the suggestions, Nameless!

Unfortunately, I had the foresight to test exactly that in between uninstalling my drivers via the method you described a few days ago. It unfortunately was still freezing in Safe mode, without nvidia's graphics drivers installed.

I do believe that effectively rules out it being a display driver issue. I'll give it a 2nd test, though. I guess it couldn't hurt.

I don't have an onboard graphic's chip, either; my Motherboard is an Asus Rog Zenith Extreme Alpha X399. Onboard graphics were one of the bells and or whistles it didn't come equipped with.

Hi locus,
Does your issue happen on just a default "empty" file, or are you dealing with a specific file?

If it is file specific, tune the view angle to something like 40, then test.

Sorry, that's all i have...

Side note:

Nice build! Putting together something for my son right now. I went intel. Just waiting for the processor to become available and i'll get it completed.

Thanks for the advice, BurrMan. Appreciate it.

It happens in an empty file, and whenever I load a file up as well.

I'm not sure I'd want to change the perspective, it would just negatively impact my design work in all honesty. Though it's worth a test to see if it makes any difference in the viewport problem.

Appreciate the compliments about the rig as well. Good luck with your son's! hopefully it all turns out well!

Hey Locus,
Just so you know, the "View Angle" I was referring to, I meant the "Mesh Angle", which is under the view options. This regards the viewport and how finely the system dices up the surfaces you see. (With a larger model, this can start to bog down the system)

Anyway, since it happens for you on an empty file, this is of no help for you....

Last note:

""""""""""""This didn't start becoming an issue until I updated both Windows and my Graphics driver in the middle of January."""""""""""""

Maybe try moving to the February update. I'm on "18362.657"

When I get my sons system built, i'll be on a 2080 ti, so may be able to play more then....
