 | Diablo 3 Causes Computer To Go Into Power Saving Mode(1) | Category: Technical SupportDecember-6-2015 4:16 PM PST (7 years ago)  |
| When, and only when, I'm playing Diablo 3, my computer screens show that it's going into "power saving mode" and I am required to manually shut off my computer and restart it. This ONLY happens when I'm playing Diablo 3. The game runs on 60fps perfectly, and I can run more graphically intensive games without this happening Specs: AMD Athlon 860k 4-core AMD Radeon HD 7700 8 GB RAM Windows 8.1 DirectX 11 I also am running a video or stream on my other screen, but with other games like The Crew, it works fine. | ||

| Coffeecup, I think you may be misinterpreting what you're seeing actually. The game has no way to initiate a power-saving mode on its own. It sounds more like the video driver may be failing and trying to recover as happens in a TDR situation. This link, on an Nvidia forum, provides a good explanation of what TDR is and has a few suggestions as to what may cause it and what may resolve it. ______________________________________________________________ I'm available in the forums Monday - Friday 6:00 am - 3:00 pm Pacific Time, Feedback? - https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Omrakos | ||

| Coffeecup, TDR issues can happen to any brand video card. Did you read through the article I linked and try any of the suggestions they give? Keep in mind, I'm only guessing about it being a TDR problem as from your limited information, there's really not anything to go on here. ______________________________________________________________ I'm available in the forums Monday - Friday 6:00 am - 3:00 pm Pacific Time, Feedback? - https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Omrakos | ||
