MSI Afterburner crashes...

[demax51]

Hey guys,

I recently started using a second monitor (basically use it for my Teamspeak clinet, and heat/hardware monitoring while I'm gaming). Since adding the second monitor, whenever I try to take a screen cap or video using MSI Afterburer, I get an error message saying that afterburner has stopped working and needs to close. I have only experienced this problem playing Mechwarrior Online (I haven't tried to record anything else, tho) but I was able to record MWO just fine before I started using the second monitor.

Has anybody had a similar issue, or does anybody know of a solution to this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help


My specs:
MSI P67a-GD65
i7 2600-k @ 4.3
dual GTX 560 ti classified (usually @ stock, unless I'm playing Farcry 3 😛 )

This is the driver compatibility issue. Try update the GPU driver and reinstall the afterburner too.

Thanks, I'll give this a try when i get home tonight!

Update: Yup, that did the trick. Now I feel like an idiot for not having "tried turning it off and back on again."
