FreeTrack Forum

I got new computer ( Core2Duo E4500, Asus P5KC(Intel P35), 2GB DDR2 etc) and when install Freetrack 2.1 and used it i got random crashes. Before in my old computer everything was fine. I use the same Win XP and  webcam drivers. I  got A4 Tech PK 333MB webcam which was very good before. It uses only RGB24 but before changed computer everything was fine. I use the same settings in freetrack and webcam like before. I used 3 point cap.

Crashes are random. Tracking suddenly stop and IR points are freezed. Still i got green light in minimized icon ( and 3 green lights in lower section) There is no other light singal. I used in webcam settings -  no flicker off. Program dont crash just tracking is stopped and IR point are freezed. I dont use pause button - i dont even map it. Tracking is  crashing  both in windows and during playing games.

These is my config:

Plz help!!!

I also noted that after crash when i set "stop" button then i go to "camera" option there is a "color" box enabled. I dont enable these box before ( i use color box disable).

Ok i think i found problem. I overcloked my processor and Freetrack tracking start to freez. But i dont know why. All my other programs, games etc works fine. Only freetrack make problem.

Maby there is another solution these problem without back to default processor settings?

I got E4500 Dual Core - (2200 Mhz, FSB 200Mhz, clock ratio 11), DDR2 800Mhz and i could overclock it to 2800Mhz, FSb 400Mhz, clock ratio 7, DDR2 800Mhz in synchro.

Why only freetrack have problem?

I checked at Fsb 333mhz and freetrack works good.
It looks like Freetrack dont support Fsb 400mhz (1600mhz)

its not the 400 mhz bus speed...  I run 400 just fine, no crashes...  its more then likely that your MB or ram or something else is not handling the overclock.

Yea probably it is. Pity that Freetrack it the only program which has problem with these overcloked settings :/

I got stable Freetrack with 333Mhz FSB  but still had freezes with 400 Mhz FSB.
I made test in  programs like SuperPi and SP2004 ORTHOS and everything was ok with 400Mhz FSB. I dont understand why Freetrack have problems :/
