correction Setting on high can cause all kinds of strange things to happen should read Setting on real-time can cause all kinds of strange things to happen need to proof read my posts a little better ... sorry From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2012 07:17:34 -0500 Subject: Re: [hlds] Handling server crashes the smart way
The only thing I notice is the cpu process priority. It should be set no greater than high. If set on real-time priority the process will be competing for CPU time with the system/hardware drivers Setting on high can cause all kinds of strange things to happen, like driver corruption and HDD faults to name a few. This is most likely the reason Windows becomes unstable. Set it above-normal or high never on real-time priority. Hope this helps clear things up for you.

I know that it's outdated, and windows is highly unstable at times, but I've been getting a lot of server crashes for the last two weeks and with each crash comes a dump file. These dump files don't appear to hold many information about the crash, pretty useless to me. But they must be there for a reason. So I was wondering if there's a 'smart' way to "pin-point" at what instance the srcds crashed. I'll leave some dox about the server that I'm running, maybe you'll find something 'un-usual' Windows 2003 Server Counter-Strike: Source dedicated server Running process with all cpus (process affinity) Running on RealTime priority (might change it to High) Addons: Mani Admin System Mattie's Eventscripts DAF DoS Fix (Blocks flood of server queries to the server) Any help is appreciated _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
