| == Mumble overlay not working == | | == TF2 Crashes after November 16, 2012 Patch == |
| When using Mumble, the overlay does not display itself.
| | The issue seems to be caused by running the game in DirectX 8. |

| While playing TF2, the game will suddenly freeze causing the sound to be looped and a black screen is seen following the freeze. A message will appear in the taskbar tray stating 'display driver has stopped responding and has successfully recovered'.

| '''Solution'''
| |
| | |
| The only known prevention method at this point is to run the game in DirectX 8.1 mode.
| |
| | |
| # Open Steam and navigate to the Library
| |
| # Right click Team Fortress 2 and select Properties
| |
| # Click Set Launch Options
| |
| # Type in -dxlevel 81
| |
| # Click OK
| |
| # Click Close
| |
| | |
| '''Solution 2'''
| |
| When the nvidia driver crashes and you can hear TF2, but can only see the desktop you can use this to see TF2 again:
| |
| | |
| # Go to the cfg TF2 folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\[your username]\team fortress 2\tf\cfg)
| |
| # Open autoexec.cfg.
| |
| # If there is no autoexec.cfg then right click anywhere in the blank space -> New -> Text Document
| |
| # Open the new text document, click on File, Save As, then at the bottom where it says Save As Type change it to All Files (*.*). For the file name type in autoexec.cfg
| |
| # Copy and paste the follow into the autoexec.cfg file:
| |
| | |
| | |
| alias res_sw "res_low"<br />alias res_low "mat_setvideomode 1024 768 0; alias res_sw res_normal"<br />alias res_normal "mat_setvideomode 1280 1024 0; alias res_sw res_low"<br />bind "o" "res_sw"<br />
| |
| | |
| Whenever the nvidia driver crashes press the o button to be able to see TF2 again.
