This was an unexpected experience

[mapuc]

To begin with I like to play none-violent simulations game

One of my "Game I really want to get me hand on" is Eurotrucker or similar. I have however decided that I need a steering wheel first.
From earlier experience I know it's hard to drive a car/formula 1 car, only using the keyboard.

There was also an another game I wanted and here the use of keyboard should not be so difficult.

It's Farming simulator.

I had a look at it when it was Farming simulator 2015. My computer I had during those years had a weak graphic card.

Now I have a newer computer with a stronger graphic card (AMD Radeon R5)

Some weeks ago I bought the game.

Farming simulation Platinum Edition
For an barging price.

Installed the game as told.

Doubled clicked on the icon

-Enter keycode.

Toke some while before I found the two code.

Again I double clicked on the Icon…….black screen for some second…….then a blurred blue screen. I could read …. something "a failure…. "
restarting your computer.

After restart I tried again double clicked on the icon and the game started.

I played for about 30 minutes.

Ok next time I will not start the game through the pop-up message which come right after I have inserted the disc.

I will right click on the icon and use Run as....

Again I got a blue screen of death.

Hmm Ok next time I will insert the disc, restart and then use Run as

Did this some days ago……..Blue screen of death again.

well this was a little unexpected experience.
Have put the game away and hope I can use it in the future when I have purchased a new and better computer.

I have before bought games where my graphic card wasn't strong enough, but never have I had blue screen of death.

Some additional information

I can play the game, with a few lags or freezing for some second.

If I can live with blue screen of death before playing and 1-2 after I have played.

Hi Markus, I am running an old AMD Radeon HD 6850 card on my XP and can play ETS2 full graphics with a Logitech G27 wheel and the game runs smoothly, and graphics set to max. You should have no problems, if you're running Windows 10 that might be the cause.

That could very well be the truth.

In the beginning I had no problems with my computer...not before I got the new WIN 10 Creator-thing installed.

Since then I have had several of these blue screen of death.

It is first time I experienced it while trying to start a game and after have played it.

I guess I put some none related information in my writing.

The main issue in this thread was that I get Blue screen of death before and after I have played Farming Simulator Platinum Edition 2017.

With following message
Thread stuck in device driver.

Here's some more information for those who may be interested.

The first day or two after I have had those Blue Screen of Death my computer shut it self down at start-up.

It does this only one time, when clicking on the on/off button the computer works fine.
