In game screenshots glitching
- 3 years ago
@Kurbizzle I've seen the dxdiag, so you can take it down now if you want. There are several issues that should be addressed. One is that the Windows USB 3 driver is crashing, which may not be a big deal at all: just unplug any device that uses a USB 3 connection and restart the computer.
Your dxdiag also lists a few Windows update failures, so it's a good idea to clean these up. Start with a couple of basic checks of your Windows system files:
- Hit Windows key-X
- Choose either “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Windows Terminal (Administrator),” whichever option is offered
- Inside the window that appears, copy and paste “DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth” without quotes, and enter
- The system will start validating soon. If it throws an error, please list it here
- After it reaches 100%, hit Windows key-X again
- Again, choose “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Windows Terminal (Administrator)”
- Inside the window, copy and paste “sfc /scannow” without quotes, and enter
- Post the message you receive here
Restart your computer, hit Windows key-i, select Update & Security, and click the box to check for updates. If any install, restart again afterwards.
The most relevant issue to the problem at hand is likely your graphics driver, which is somewhat old. You can get the newest one from AMD here:
Try the Recommended one, dated December 8, first; the newer one may be a beta even if the site doesn't say so. Run the installer as an admin: right-click the download and select "Run as administrator." Restart your computer after installing the driver and before trying to play.
If that doesn't help with the screenshots, please set your monitor to run at hte next refresh rate down from 170 Hz, which is its current setting. 170 is technically an overclock, and while it should be stable, an overclock can produce glitches like what you see in your screenshot. 165 Hz should be fine, but if not, try 120 or 144, whichever is offered.
