krassy 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) I tried almost everything i can find around this forum. I am 2 vmware each with 2gb ram, 2 cpu core, paging 1500-3000, when i try to run more than 1 of the vmware, 1 of them freezes suddenly and i need to do ctrl-alt-del to close it. if i run each separately they run perfectly. i run dxtory on each capped at 30 fps. Both vmwares are on SSD my cpu is 2500k overclocked at 4ghz, tried with no OC, never passes 50%cpu with both clients running gpu is 560 ti, tried with force voltage on/off, never passes 40% gpu use tried running vmware 7.13 /10 same thing. Reinstalled windows multiple times/ tried clone/tried linked-clone i don't think my cpu/gpu is bottlenecked. Any tips?

leeroy788 2 Report post Posted March 22, 2014 Same problem. There is another thread with the same issues as this one, seems like no ones has found a definite fix yet. I upped the amount of cores per vmware from 2>6 & upped ram from 2>3gb, and it seems to allow me to run 2 vmwares without any freezing.. but still after 2 I cant stop them from freezing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jesuschristbaby 1 Report post Posted March 22, 2014 I have found the bots don't seem to crash if you just don't check them every minute and keep another window open in the vm tab, like home so the bot doesn't need to be constantly displayed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"The work around is: Press Start, Search "regedit", launch the program that comes up, use the file system on the side and click the drop down arrow on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, then HARDWARE, then DEVICEMAP, then double click VIDEO, a file named MaxObjectNumber shows up in the directory with the Type REG_DWORD, this is your TDR Timeout setting, 0 = Off and any positive number will set a delay." I did this in my Host and both my windows guests. Did the following to Host only. Import to registry, backup before use that.Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\GraphicsDrivers\DCI]"Timeout"=dword:00000014"TdrDdiDelay"=dword:00000014"TdrDelay"=dword:00000014"TdrLevel"=dword:000000[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\GraphicsDrivers]"TdrDdiDelay"=dword:00000014"TdrDelay"=dword:00000014"TdrLevel"=dword:000000 I also set in my Nvidia the power management to Prefer max performance rather than adaptive Physx set to my GPU and forced Ram voltage Edited March 23, 2014 by krassy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
