iDisplay was not uninstalled with the Splashtop program uninstaller or cleaner.
Started poking around and found Osbase>iDisplay folder and figured it had to be the culprit due to the date, dumb luck in a way. I installed Splashtop and the next time I fired up Steam I had nothing but problems.Įven after using Splashtop's Uninstaller cleaner (found on their forums) it wasn't fixed.
IDISPLAY APP CRASH TV
I couldn't get Chromecast to work with my NV Shield TV so I started looking for an alternative, thats when I stepped in it, lol. Just wanted to add that Splashtop remote desktop has the same effect and like OP's experience, MGSV-TPP, MGSV GZ as well as Tomb Raider crashed within a short time. Out of curiosity, I checked my C:\Windows\System32 folder again for the DLL - and lo and behold, it was nowhere to be found. I uninstalled, restarted my PC, and played an hour of glorious MGS5 without issue. Kairos is the copmany that makes Duet, and apparently it brought the ddumd.dll along with it. I pulled up Add/Remove Programs one last time, and bam - there was Kairos Display. Simply uninstalling Duet Display wasn't enough. Sure enough, the crash was due to the ddumd.dll again. But I soldiered on, checking Event Viewer one last time. Just as I was texting my friend to gloat about my genius, the game crashed AGAIN.Īt this point, I considered giving up. Before, I couldn't make it past 5 minutes without crashing. Restarted, launched the game - and for nearly 30 minutes no crashes occurred. So I went to my PC, and uninstalled Duet Display. It's a program that lets you use an iPad as a second (or third, fourth, etc) display when you connect it via USB.
IDISPLAY APP CRASH WINDOWS
Just weeks ago, I had installed Duet Display on my Windows PC. Googling OSBASE, I find out that they make a product called iDisplay which lets Windows-based PCs transmit video to displays over USB. You can find this out simply by right-clicking on the file, choosing Properties, then checking whose signed the file. After a bit more digging, it turns out ddumd.dll is signed by a company called OSBASE.
IDISPLAY APP CRASH PC
The question is, how did it get on my PC in the first place? Huh? Sure enough - ddumd.dll is nowhere to be found on my secondary PC. To test my theory out, I installed the game on my secondary PC which has an nvidia GTX 680 (my primary machine has a 980). So, after spending minimal time Googling what the hell that DLL is, I came to believe it was somehow related to nvidia's drivers.
Although I was logged in with the only user account (and therefore admin) on the computer, I simply got an 'Access denied' error. How am I going to delete a file without having Windows Explorer open? Command prompt! I ran Command Prompt as an administrator, and tried deleting it that way - no dice. This time, Windows Explorer was using it. So, I closed that process through Task Manager and tried again - no luck. First, I was warned that wdm.exe used it - that's Windows Desktop Manager. It showed that when mgsvtpp.exe (the game's process) was crashing, it was due to the failed module ddumd.dll.īeing the genius I am, I first tried to delete the DLL.
I knew there must be SOME kind of log related to the crash, and Windows Event Viewer was my savior. Always, it would crash with the generic Windows error message: 'MGS has stopped working,' blah blah blah (if you want the exact text of the message, let me know). MGS5 would crash after only a few minutes of gameplay if that - sometimes it would crash on the title screen before I could play the game. Today, I finally discovered the source of my frustration.įirst, let me explain what was happening in case it's happening to you too. Hi! I've posted about this in a few threads because MGS5 started crashing for me recently.
