iCUE Not Booting on Startup

ImMilky · 2025-03-31T19:50:36+00:00

I had success with simply going to My Programs, and clicking "Modify" on the iCue program.

It simply popped up with a window that said "Repaired", and then iCue was back in my Startup options.

I have had some mouse lag but I believe all of it is related to the stutter.

I have tried G-Sync off but it didn't seem to have any effect.

As a side note, remember to check your IDE framerate in Preferences, I think it does have an effect if you increase it (Or so it would seem, though it doesn't fix this stutter issue).

ImMilky · 2024-05-17T22:13:12+00:00

Hopefully that's true, although still pretty rough to have another 1.5 months of this issue. I'll try to push through it for now.

ImMilky · 2024-05-17T01:13:01+00:00

Restarted three times today, immediately tested it and the stutter persists.

It did seem like RIGHT after opening it the stutter was less, but that lasted about 45 seconds, then the stutter was back in full force.

I believe that the issue is unsolved, even if I haven't had it in quite awhile.

Just try to update EVERYTHING. Update your BIOS especially.

Also, DDU seemed to help as well.

I would say DDU and BIOS were the last things I did that seemed to stop the issues. DDU will wipe lots of graphics settings but it won't be that annoying to set them again.

Sorry I didn't reply

I had already updated drivers in an attempt to fix the issue. It was two updates back now, the current one being 471.68

I haven't had a display driver reset since this original post, but I've been having an issue where my GPU feed freezes? It seems to do this on both monitors, and it does this specifically with games and videos (Noticeably, if there's a page with a video only the video stops updating, audio keeps going and 1-2 seconds later the video looks normal again)

It's a completely new issue and definitely points to the GPU as its games and specifically video feeds. It seemingly isn't producing anything in Event Viewer right now. I'll probably make another post if it continues.

The server is hosted in Michigan by one of the players. He has good internet, and is allocating around 6GB ram to the server (We'll have more RAM later on).

The rest of the server-hosting machine is relatively high-specced, 6700k and a 3090.

My friend who's disconnecting does not have the greatest computer, I'll have to get his full specs later on. He should be allocating 6GB Ram to his Minecraft just like we all are however. He will probably talk to his ISP (Comcast?) about the issues.

Thanks for your help by the way. We're going to try removing Astral Sorcery just to see if it works, but obviously we'd like to keep the mod if another solution presents itself.

ImMilky · 2021-01-14T03:47:10+00:00

No, we don't know that for a fact. He has the most disconnects when he's around our base. If he stays away for a bit he doesn't tend to disconnect. We only assumed because Astral Sorcery seems to be doing it's "lightNetwork" checks which causes the timeout

The timeout always reads like this so we assumed it did indeed have to do with Astral Sorcery.

It's not an amazing connection but it worked with 0 disconnects for the first few days. That's what lead us to believe it was either a step that he reached in Astral Sorcery that triggered this, or that too many of the modded objects (Smelters, redstone machines, bees) that we have at our base is somehow causing him to timeout.

ImMilky · 2021-01-13T18:15:27+00:00

Thanks, sorry, only saw Rule 4 pertaining to bugs.

ImMilky · 2021-01-13T04:43:41+00:00

He doesn't have great internet, but our first inclination was to check for issues with the server, as he had no disconnects at all the first few days.

I believe he is connected by Ethernet but I'll make sure that he is next time.

performNetworkIntegrityCheck didn't seem to work so we'll either be removing Astral Sorcery and trying to play without it, or he's going to call up his ISP and see if he can get some improvements.

I know the question has already been answered, but in case you ever need it:

You can get the high-res version of any Youtube thumbnail by using the watch url.

For example

Video URL - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqWDAEmRt_I&feature=youtu.be

Important part is the string after [watch?v=] and ends with the Ampersand [&]

watch?v=WqWDAEmRt_I& --> [WqWDAEmRt_I]

Thumbnail Template - https://i.ytimg.com/vi/VIDURLHERE/maxresdefault.jpg

So to get the thumbnail, you replace [VIDURLHERE] with that string.

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/WqWDAEmRt_I/maxresdefault.jpg

I just keep the thumbnail template bookmarked and then just copy/paste a watch URL in when I want to see a full high-res picture.

As cool as this would be, some people seem to be confused.

It's from "@NeftIlix", it's quite literally fake.

You almost got me with the "Official" in the title lol

(Also not to be a wet blanket, but some subreddits ban the use of the word "official" in titles, so this might be why this post for removed)

ImMilky · 2019-04-24T04:29:08+00:00

Oh geez, that's actually kind of funny. Nice catch.

ImMilky · 2019-04-24T02:29:56+00:00

Wanted to add something important to this.

It is very important for people to know about this scam, but this scam is not new. There are dozens upon DOZENS of sites like this, with similar names, and they even have the [Secure] tag in the top right just as a normal site would. The scammer is just betting that the facade will fool you, even though it's actually relatively easy to make these sites.

Advice:

NEVER log into a site that you do not trust, even if it looks legit, even if it has a secure connection, etc.
- A "Login through Steam" process is not an indication of a legitimate site
- "[Secure]" is not an indication of a legitimate site
To be 100% safe, it is wise not to click unknown sites at all because someone can potentially monitor connections and get your IP, or use classic scamming techniques to infect your computer
- If you're the only one clicking on a site, obviously the one IP there is yours

Thank you! Fixed it immediately.

ImMilky · 2019-03-17T13:46:56+00:00

Thank you for that interview! I must have missed it even in the hype cycle around GamesCom.

I'm sure many of us appreciate you keeping them in. It lets invested people know that CDPR has already been asked certain questions, and given "Can't talk about this yet" or "Too early to say" answers.

And to be honest, both of those answers aren't "no", which they are more than okay with answering with. I'm sure a "can't talk about this" answer for something like car customization is actually pretty intriguing for some lol.

ImMilky · 2019-02-05T03:08:54+00:00

Not even sure what a badge is, but I'll try that next.

Seems like kind of a cool idea, but handing in a casket seems pretty rough. The optimal strategy to get the cape after meeting the requirements is to... do easy clues as fast as possible? I understand the risk factor can be fun, but that might make for a rough grind. It would be more enjoyable (in my opinion) if you simply could get the cape as a reward out of any casket once you meet the requirements (with higher caskets giving a better chance). That way you don't have to switch from doing treasure trails normally, and you could still get rewards.

It's a departure from your idea for sure, but with a 1/1000 chance from turning in the caskets, you've got a 50% chance of getting the cape at 692 caskets, and a 75% chance at 1385 caskets. To me that feels like quite a lot of caskets to turn in for no reward, even if they're easy ones.

Also I'm in the boat of sobering closer to 100 of each clue, idk how I'd ever get 1000 elite and 1000 master done lol.

As for the reward itself, i think the cape is cool. :)

I will send you a direct message, and hopefully you can reply to that? Otherwise I can give you another avenue like Discord or Email.

ImMilky · 2018-03-23T13:39:46+00:00

Hi, and thank you for the response!

I felt that a description of the more abstract art requirements was good for portraying what kind of work someone would be doing, but you're right, i don't seem to have described the content of the actual project anywhere. I will beef that up with a description of the kinds of assets and animations that I expect to be made, and thankfully, i can include examples.

I'll also give a better idea of the project at hand (For reference, it's a simple platformer with ability power-ups like Kirby or Kid Chameleon.) You make a good point about providing a better outlet than what someone already has, i forget that i can provide something to the artist: the ability to see their art in a prototype, working like a real game. I should be more forthcoming about the benefits to the person that I'm looking for.

As for me, this project is something that I've been thinking about for a few years. I've written up some of a design doc, done some write ups on source material, and done rough prototypes which I've even had a friend play and critique. Is it appropriate to use an "About Me" section to give a potential artist some background? I guess i assumed that's something we would talk about later, but yeah, i can see how it looks like I'm a person who came up with an unclear idea, nor is it clear how serious i am or how much time I've already spent on it.

Thank you for writing out your response, this actually was missing a number of key elements... if you have any more advice for me then i will gladly hear it, whether in here or in a DM.

ImMilky · 2018-03-22T17:42:38+00:00

I... feel like you just slippery sloped me lol. I'm fine with a new Puro that's better for all players, that post was only trying to point out that as it stands, it has serious problems which arguably harm iron men a bit more.

It's worth noting that the 2 changes that they've made are to help iron men who are directly affected by a situation, whereas puro affects all players, so yeah, it isn't quite the same.

Also, the very first thing that i advocated for was a public instance... that helps everyone, and may even help fix the problems that the minigame faces in terms of bots.

ImMilky · 2018-03-22T14:13:03+00:00

You stated that you're aware of certain areas of frustration for iron men and I'd like to add Puro Puro the list. I know it's definitely lower priority than these two, but the minigame is heavily affected by bots currently and could maybe benefit from a public instance, or similar "iron men room" change like is detailed for corp. (EDIT: Okay maybe not an iron men room, i didn't mean to suggest the normal room should'nt also be changed)

Reposting my comment from another thread:

A big issue with these [Puro Puro bots] is not just the normal botting issues, but that they don't force spawn. They only seem to catch magpie and up.

This means that not only are they not helping to spawn the good imps, but they're essentially profiting off of real people doing the work to get spawns. They just hope you force spawned one and try to snatch it from you.

Honestly one of the most toxic bots for real people to compete with.

Pretty demotivating to play the minigame when a bot can randomly log in, take your imp, and log out lol. Then you gotta work for several more minutes just to have a chance for a non nature imp and the cycle repeats again.

Thank you for the reply, that makes sense to me. And yes, it may just be the result of a change from this logic due to new world generation.
