Hello,

I've bought this game 1.5 years ago and it always worked perfectly.

Recently I started playing it again (before The Slammer update) but the game keeps on crashing without a crash notification. It just stops and brings me back to my Desktop.

First I thought it had something to do with the tazers but even in a prison without tazers it keeps crashing. My latest prison is around 60 inmates, so not even that big.
When I start a new prison it works fine for 2-3 hours. But then it crashes and it keeps on crashing everytime I load the prison again. Starting a new prison works, but again for only 2-3 hours.

I tried reinstalling the game but it had no effect. I've also updated my graphics card driver but that also did not help.


I have added the debux.txt and DxDiag.txt files.


I hope someone could help me as the game is now unplayable for me.

You have a dual intel/nVidia video setup and the game is running on the Intel. The nVidia utilities ought to choose to put the game on the nVidia of course.

Use the nVidia Control Panel, Manage 3D settings, to force PrisonArchitect64.exe to run on the "high power nVidia" option there.
