This is a bizarre issue that I haven’t completely isolated yet. First time I launched classic WoW yesterday, I got a BSOD with the error “Video_Scheduler_Internal_Error” message. I figured it was a driver issue, so I updated all my drivers. For some reason when I went to launch classic the BNet launcher lost the game locations of all my game files for all my blizzard games, I had to relocate them. I launched classic wow, it worked fine.
Today I’m getting a BSOD everytime I hit launch on Classic, and every restart BNet loses game locations again. Updating everything again hasn’t worked. Any ideas?
~edit~
I ran a repair on classic, didn’t find anything, but I got it to launch. If it happens again I’ll update. Seeing as how it didn’t work, then worked last night, and then didn’t work again… I might be back haha.
Same error this morning and worked perfectly fine for all through the night. Here’s info and dxdiag. Actually how do I attach the .txt here? Or do you want me to just copy and paste it into the post?
Lets go ahead and do a clean install
First download DDU
But do not run it
Download these NVidia drivers
do not install them yet
Once the above is completed run DDU to remove the Nvidia drivers follow the instruction in DDU after the computer reboots install the new drivers and test
Ran DDU, cleaned all GPU drivers, installed the NVidia drivers linked. I opened up the BNet launcher, launched Classic WoW and it froze. On the login page before the login info would normally pop up. Computer didn’t even BSOD, it simply shut off. Mouse and keyboard are both razer, they flickered a bunch, monitor shut off, and then after about 10 seconds it rebooted. I’m about to launch it again to see what happens…
~edit~
I’m in. Unfortunately it took 4 attempts, which is how many it took the first day, the second day, and now today, so I still don’t know if it’s fixed or not.
~edit~
Just going through the system logs, it appears that Bonjour is what is causing the problem. Every time launching classic wow starts up the Bonjour service it fail saying the hostname is already in use. Everytime I’ve successfully gotten on, it is logged as a success.
fail results in - Local Hostname LAPTOP-KPM9GINO.local already in use; will try LAPTOP-KPM9GINO-2.local instead
looks like a realtek audio driver or something is failing as well. On successful launches of Classic it doesn’t fail >.<
