AH Wont oppen after last update.

Well, that took all of five minutes. Same as last night. Log in, play for a bit, computer lock up, power off reboot.

Oh well. Back to Trainz for awhile.

What anti-xxxx software is it?  Most of them cannot actually be disabled.  All disabling does is turn off the reporting of problems.

You cannot rely on Windows 10 to keep drivers updated, especially video card drivers.  Microsoft is usually several releases behind.  NVidia had a couple of drivers, recently released, which had a number of issues.  They have been releasing hot fixes pretty regularly, which never get to Microsoft.

I am thinking there is something else going on here.  Random lockups, not occurring with everyone playing the game, usually point to something else.  What are the temps of the video card and CPU?  What size/brand/model power supply is in the computer?

I know there's something else going on lol. And more than likely, it's something incredibly stupid. After fourteen years of playing AH I've learned that these major changes take a lot of time to sort things out and plenty of patience.

The power supply is a Thermaltake TR2 600w

I couldn't find temps. Control Panel, System info, Graphics Card info...nothing...all the technical data is there but couldn't find a CPU or GPU temp reading anywhere.

I'm not worried about the anti virus software. If it's really on when it tells me it's off then there's nothing I can do about it. All I can say is I go in and toggle off everything it allows me to each time I get ready to log in. I wish I could do the same with Win10. Especially the update. WinXP allowed you to completely disconnect from MS but as far as I can tell Big Brother MS took that luxury away.

If you leave Windows 10 updater at its defaults, it will merrily reboot the computer in the middle of a game.  I just hope, if it happens to anyone, they are not flying an expensive perk ride at that time.

Just came from a long session in the Dueling Arena. Two big hiccups but no lock ups. Ping is 49 to 68. I'll try the Main Arena again later today.

Seems rock solid with patch 13. I'll let you know if it's an illusion.

[Blooz]

It's an illusion.

Locked up three times tonight. The third time was able to recover fast enough that the AI saved my place and I carried on to the target.

Played 23 minutes before the first lockup. Locked up the second time right after logging back in right in the tower as I was scoping the map. Third time I was on roughly 10 minutes, it locked, I shut down and rebooted, came back in and the AI let me pick up where I left off. Went on to play another half an hour or so then logged. Can't see a or reason for it. Each time I was in different places doing different things.

I know this is nothing to go on. Wanted to report it though.

I'll start recording my sorties and when it happens again I'll send it to ya.

Finally remembered to turn the film on and captured a lockup while in the training arena. Hopefully it will have data you can use.

Film attached (if I did things right)
