Intel System Support Utility report

If you can't replicate by just booting up any of the games I mentioned on 4824 on an A750/770 and there's a chance it's setup specific I'll add it.

Description and steps to reproduce [Required]

With 4824 and 4826 DirectX 8 games don't work. Nothing more to say. I go back to 4672 and it works fine. I haven't tested 4676. I've tested Postal 2, Arma: Cold War Assault and Max Payne. Max Payne plays the intro FMV but crashes on the menu. The other two don't boot. Even with a dirty driver install without reboots or DDU it's the same, 4672 works and 4824 doesn't. I can (and do) use various wrappers like DGVoodoo, D3D8to9, DX8VK, but it'd be awfully nice if I didn't have to use them for games that worked fine as is. MXoa5u3cQG k5oHl89rvL

Hey @yawnbunny let us check what's going on. Debug in progress :)

Karen-Intel commented 12 months ago

Hello @yawnbunny help needed!

Can you please change the title of this game and select one of the 3 you have reported + I need you to generate another 2 threads for each of the other 2 games.

Thank you, I am reporting this asap but I need your help with it to create a case per game.

Karen

yawnbunny commented 12 months ago

Done. I'll make another for Postal 2 since these two are the most relevant and run the most issue free.

Can you check, if you seeing the same behavior in 3DMark2001 SE (KEY: 7QMF2-TSLJR-ESRDD-L3FJF) with 4672 vs 4826 driver. Is a DirectX 8 benchmark and it uses Remedy MAX-FX engine.

Ignore MMX warning, main window should open anyway.

yawnbunny commented 11 months ago

@BiZkViT96 Can't even finish the setup on 4826, fails at texture conversion. It installed and did a lap in the game just fine on 4672. On 4826, gives me the same "setFullscreen - creating the device failed : D3DERR_INVALIDCALL" seen in the Max Payne error box screenshot in the original post. huipM91JCq C7knmSqwbz

Try patches from UCyborg.

For 3DMark 3DMarkStartupHangPatchv1.01.zip

For Max Payne MaxPayneStartupHangPatchv1.01.zip

Obviously if all DX8 games is affected then this is not a solution to the problem and it should be solved on driver side.

yawnbunny commented 11 months ago

Yeah, that's my point. All D3D8 games are affected, not a single one boots on 4824/4826, when they all boot on 4672.

Eschryn commented 11 months ago

Gothic 2 is also affected. Game apparently also runs using DX8. So the regression is seemingly part of this issue.

Karen-Intel commented 11 months ago

Hey @yawnbunny just FYI leaving here internal tracking number: 22018875778 Our driver cadence for fixes takes ~ 3 to 6 months but I have confirmed the regression to driver v.4676 so it is an option to play this game and others related to this behavior. Stay tuned for updates on this thread, I will post any update I get so please keep it open.

Eschryn commented 11 months ago

Another alternative may be trying to run it on Linux - Gothic seems to run really well on Linux under Proton

yawnbunny commented 11 months ago

I forgot to update but the issue remains on 4885.

paulo-jgf commented 10 months ago

Issue remains on 4887. RivaTuner Statistics Server throws a D3D8 error on startup. I am positive everything DX8 is not working right:

4952 is the newest, but yes it still remains and nothing D3D8 runs unless you use a wrapper like DGVoodoo, D8VK or D3D8to9.

yawnbunny commented 9 months ago

I no longer have issues in this or Postal 2 on version 5074, however it's not perfect. Max Payne and 3DMark01 don't launch the launchers, so I can't actually play the game. With wrappers they work. Thanks for the timely fix though.
