crash with opengl on secondary screen / xp
Aug 22nd, 2008, 4:24pm  
hi there!

i encountered a strange crash while rendering opengl under windows xp sp3. everything is fine and stable if i run my sketches on the laptop lcd, with the system freshly booted and secondary monitor disabled. as soon as i enable the secondary screen (dualview mode on a gforce 7600 go, original toshiba display drivers 8.4), there are some problems while creating the window - either it won't show up or will just stay grey. if i run presentation mode once and exit, it works as expected, but: i get crashes after a minute or two...console says:

#  EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x6968ac6b, pid=3604, tid=2316
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_15-b04 mixed mode)
# Problematic frame:
# C  [nvoglnt.dll+0x18ac6b]

i fiddled around with the nvidia display settings (multiple display acceleration etc) but i don't know where to look further. anyone got a clue?

system is windows xp sp3, running processing 148 with included java.

if needed i can post the whole crashlog...

many thanks in advance,

micha

ok, just installed some fresh display driver with a hacked .inf file, problem is gone, BUT: my card is now clocked at half the speed and there are several others issues (fan?) with hacked drivers on my laptop. so, is there is any chance to get it working with the old driver?
