Salem

The problem is this:






This usually happens within a few minutes after starting the game. Sometimes the glitching may be smaller and less "in-your-face", so that I may be able to keep playing for a maximum of 10-15 minutes or so, after which the game closes itself without any error message. The crashing may occur much sooner too.

My specs are as follows:

Intel Core i3-3220 CPU @ 3.30GHz
16 Gb RAM
Nvidia Quadro 600
Windows 7 64-bit

My graphics card drivers are up to date.

Does This only occur in my client, or do you have the same problem in ender's or the default client?

It happens in all of the clients.

Having similar issues frequently (not everytime though). Did you find out the root cause?
I'm using java 6 update 27 (32 bit)
Intel Core i7 3520M @ 2.90GHz
8GB DDR3
NVIDIA Quadro K1000M (driver date 1/24/2014)
Win7 x64
Confirmed, it happens with default client too.

I shan't bet on it, but it looks to me like hardware trouble. Are you sure your RAM is error-free and that your GPU is properly cooled?

I checked my RAM with Windows Diagnostic tool and didn't get any errors.

I also checked the temperature of my GPU. On idle it's around 50°C, and during Salem it gets slightly above 70°C, so it doesn't look like that's the cause of the problem either.

That old school video card is taking a poop...flush it...I seen this issue in many games and its always been video hardware.

Your GPU on idle is almost able to cook eggs on it.

Yeah, I'm aware that the video card is a piece of crap, and I've been thinking it's probably the cause of all this. However, I use this computer mainly for work, so I'm not sure if I'm ready to replace the video card just because of Salem. I actually have a gaming rig too, which runs Salem fine, but it would be amazeballs if I could run it on this other computer too.

And yeah, the card is already a bit old, but I wouldn't go as far as calling it old school... I believe it was released around 2010-2011 or something like that.

As far as I know, 50°C should actually be pretty normal. Correct me if I'm wrong.
