Minecraft Closes Randomly with a Java Exception
Unlike when the game crashes it goes to a black screen and then the stack trace. This time the game just closes and leaves a nice hs_err_pid.txt file for us, which you can find here.
I've checked around Google and most people's answer is to Update my Graphics card, I have attempted this and the AMD Auto Detect application just tells me that it's up to date.
System: I record with Fraps sometimes but this does not mean that this causes it (it happens when not recording too). I also run Minecraft on a RAMDisk that has 512MB.
Can anyone give me any advice about this?
Looking at your error dump file, there are several things that catch my eye.
Line 298 shows you're running Minecraft.exe
instead of the JAR file. While normally this isn't an issue, I've seen weird stuff with the EXE as opposed to the jar. Try running with just the minecraft JAR instead to see if it works. You could also try force updating (in the launcher, click "Options" and then check "Force Update"; login) to see if that helps anything.
On line 75 it specifies that there is an error with a GL (lwjgl) call to nglCallList
(or glCallList
) which suggests a drivers issue. Keep in mind lwjgl uses native libraries to do what it does (more or less parts of the program that aren't completely Java and depend almost entirely on the specific operating system you're running) so it's not necessarily Java's fault.
As others have suggested, make sure your drivers are up to date (GL11
in LWJGL means OpenGL 1.1 - if your graphics card doesn't support it, you're going to definitely need a new graphics card...). You're running on Windows 7x64 with an ATI card so updating, if necessary, shouldn't be a problem.
Furthermore, I saw line 138, which shows you have at least one mod installed; try disabling/removing mods completely, as they are notorious for screwing things up.
Make sure your MSVC runtimes are updated (at the very least make sure 08/10/12's x86 versions are up to date - yes, you're on 64-bit but the JNL libraries Minecraft uses are 32-bit).
And, as always, make sure your Java is up to date (your dump log suggests you're just a little bit behind - about 5-6 builds).
If none of that fixes the issue, then it could very well be a RAMDisk issue as many have suggested in the original post's comments.
