The problem is with my benchmark tool 3DMark

Asked By Hall Allen 80 points N/A Posted on - 10/20/2012

Hi guys,

The problem is with my benchmark tool 3DMark.

I received an error message in SLI on my computer running with Windows Vista 64-bit Service Pack 1, intel Q9450 processor and 512 MB of 8800GTS.

Have a look at the screenshot below.

Have you any idea for the problem?

Please help.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Oops!3DMark has unfortunately encountered an unexpected problem during the benchmark run and was forced to abort the test. This is what 3DMark wants to say the exact nature of the problem:

Std::exception

ID3D10Device::CreatePixelShader failed: An invalid parameters was passed to the returning function (E_INVALIDARG)

Hello Hall,

The error you are getting is due to a video driver crash. For some reason the 3DMark lost access to the video card driver You will need to first of all try cleaning the existing drivers and after that you can install the latest WHQL drivers for your video card and see if that will resolve the issue.

Regards,

Nicke
