Re: screen flickers black pga tour

Hi again and sorry for writing so much, but today after two total crashes within couple of minutes these two error reports were generated:

First crash:

DirectX function
"g_dx12Renderer->getDevice0->CreateCommandList(1<<gpuNode), commandListType, transitionCommandAllocator, nullptr,
FB_IID_PPV_ARGS(&gpuData.dxTransitionCommandList.assign Get 0() "failed with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED ("The video cvard has been phusically removed from the system, or a driver upgrade for the video card has occured."). GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti" , Driver: 53667. This error is usually caused by the graphics driver crashing: tryu installing the latest drivers: DeviceRemovedReason: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("The GPU will not respont to more commands").

Second crash:

DirectX function "GetDeviceRemovedReason" faild with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("The GPU will not respont to more commands").
GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti" , Driver: 53667. This error is usually caused by the graphics driver crashing: tryu installing the latest drivers

Note that I have the latest driver:

Hopefully this helps and hoping to get some help how to configure either the game files or game settings to help with this.

    My crashes always gave me the same errors as yourself

    DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("The GPU will not respont to more commands").
    GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti" , Driver: 53667

    This is what i did to solve the crashes

    I noticed that i had 2 games in EA App installed through steam on c drive.   PGA TOUR and The sims 4 (granddaughters game)

    1... uninstall both games through steam,uninstall EA App

    2...install steam onto a different drive (in my case i changed from c to d

    3... install EA App back onto c drive

    4...insalled both games back through steam onto my d drive

    5...Always play the game from steam library DO NOT run the game from desktop shortcut or the EA App

    Not had any crashes since

    Funny thing is, the sims 4 started crashing,even though it had never crashed before,,solved that by installing to another PC

    No crashes on PGA TOUR in over 8 days

    My conclusion is the EA APP is at fault,  not your GFX Card or Drivers

    Thanks a lot for your reply and suggestions @spillers10 

    I do have Steam on my C drive and most of my games installed on my D drive including PGA tour. I also usually start the game from the desktop shortcut, but will only use Steam library from now on.

    If this doesn't help, I will uninstall Steam and put everything on my D drive, but it's a long operation so I rather not do it but will if nothing else helps.

    I also have a feeling crashes are caused by the EA app, because this is the only game that causes crashes or problems.

    @gimmick2 

    Done some more testing today and i can now confirm what the problem is for me...

    If i only have PGA Tour insalled in EA App then game works, no crashes in 3 hour session

    Installed 2 more games in EA App, that gives me 3 in total

    PGA Tour crashed 3 times in 10 minutes,had to give up

    Good luck in your attempts

    This is the first time i have ever come across this problem

    Have fixed this issue myself. A very strange problem it is

    If i have PGA Tour installed on it's own in EA App the game works

    if i install another game in EA App then both games crash

    Just to clarify i can only have 1 game installed at any time inside the EA App

    Just another thing to add in to the 'fixes to try' for those PC users with nvidia gfx cards is to try a clean install of the graphics drivers, but use the studio drivers that are available in the same download area as the game ready drivers. 

    I found that the game was quite unstable at random when using the game ready drivers, even the most up to date variant. I switched out to the studio drivers, and haven't suffered any crashes since.
