[0.17.79] Crash on every startup (GeForce 840A, driver 359.40, Win 10)

Post by Cthuga »

Hi,

I have start to play again with factorio yesterday.
Every thing was working fine, I saved my game and closed the game.

Today I tried to launch it again :

I tried to restart the computer, same message.
It's always when the program is loading the mod.
The install is a fresh one from Steam, with just one save.

Can you offer me any assistance on how to resolve it?

Best regards,

Hello, your graphics driver is very outdated and is crashing.

Try to update it. You have GeForce 840A which seems to be weirdly named GeForce 840M so hopefully this driver will work on it: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverR ... 5645/en-us
