RE: GP4 & Multiple Monitors on Win 7

To add to my previous post I have ran GPXPatch and the first past of the error log file (124 pages long) might help.

Regards, KH

You sadly cut off the stack dump logs (at the end of the 2 last "chapters" you copied/pasted above) which often give interesting infos...

Hi,
I have the complete log but it is 124 pages long in Word pad.

Do you want me to list the entire log?

Also installed GP3, updated to GP3-2000, on the same PC and get some crashes on exit although I can play a full game.

GP3-2000 (and GP3) crashes when I try to calibrate the graphics card. If I skip this and just run GP3 and set graphics manually all is fwine except on exit as mentioned.

Another note I am using Microsoft Security Essentials for Firewall and AV if this makes a difference.

I think pasting one of the stack dump logs mentioned by Laurent will be enough.

Do you have GPxPatch in debug mode ? If so, that sounds normal to me. (just uncheck the Debug mode case)

That's an usual issue. GP3 isn't comfortable with multi-screens. You DON'T have to calibrate the graphics as asked by the game, except the very first time you run it after it's first install. (after that, NEVER calibrate the graphics again)

the crash when calibrating the graphics is usually related to gpxpatch and/or a decrypted exe. make sure you run gp3/4 at least once immeadiately after installation, without applying any patches or other stuff

sorry to ask, but the video controller supports more than one monitor, right?

This should be fixed with GPxPatch 4.44.
