Direct3D Reset device error.

[bandi94]

I bought now 2 week's ago a Lenovo G580 laptop. It have a HD4000 and Nvidia GT635M 2gb video card.

I have latest Nvidia driver instaled.

When i try to run MTA i get a window saying that Nvidia Optimus was detected and i need to chose a running plan (A,B,C or D).

No mather what i chose i press OK after my screen start's ficking on/off and after 10s i get that "Direct3D Reset device" error.

If i try to run the game 6-7 time's somehow finaly start's but after that if i minimize the game (to fix something in a script) when i wanna maximize it to go back i got that error and the game crash.

I tried to run it in the HD4000 / Nvidia GPU selected from Nvidia control panel for gtasa.exe and mtasa.exe (after for gtasa-proxy.exe to) but the same problem no mather what GPU i chose i get this problem anyway.

Can this error to be fixed somehow, bk i can't make anything if i need to start the game 10 time's every time i make a small bug/error fix in a script.

downloaded MTADiag 2.7.8 , it instaled a new version of MTA now i have 8 option's from where to chose but again non of them work.

Here is the pastebin Log : http://pastebin.mtasa.com/161331376

THX again

EDIT: Changed power setting's to Performance =>> desktop switched to Nvidia GPU =>> GPU not chnageing while game is starting =>> game start's perfectly.

But the minimize , maximize (drop it to desktop with window's key) the secound time it's giving error.

I noticed that in windowed mode it dosen't so i think i will stick to windowed mode when i am scripting/testing and need to minimize it many time's. And after i switch it to fullscreen when i am playing.

I don't see any other solution, maybe Nvidia / MTA will solve in the future this conflict between the two engine's.

Well i fixed the problem and thx.I switched the power plan to performance from balanced , and now working.

BTW : I have latest Nvidia Driver, i have the driver updater instaled he is checking every day for new update. I am using the ethernet so =>> i have already instaled wireless driver , i am using the touchpad driver already =>>instaled.

What i am meaning that i know you are trying to help but some drivers on your list are ridiculous (USB3 have no job whit the game ,touchpad , wireless , ethernet , .... They have nothing to do with the Direct 3D engine ..)

The main problem is with the MTA D3D engine hook . He fail to hook the engine after Nvidia Optimus switch the GPU.

Thanks for telling us how you solved the issue. Also thanks for telling us how to do support, and how to fix MTA.

I provide a complete list of drivers to be thorough, and even if you have a driver already installed for the specific device it is probably out of date (who goes and updates their touchpad or Management Engine Interface drivers on a whim?). You do not have to install all of them if you do not want to.
