Broken graphics or display configuration

An AMS2 display failure can involve graphicsconfigdx11.xml. A weather-transition hitch alone is a different symptom and is not proof of damaged display settings.

Checks and expected results

Before you repair it

  • Record the installed AMS2 version and whether the problem is startup/display failure or a hitch during weather changes.
  • Check the linked Reiza notes for the version-specific weather improvements before choosing a configuration reset.
  • For a matching file failure, close AMS2, preserve graphicsconfigdx11.xml, and note resolution and display choices.

How to confirm the result

After a targeted reset, review the rebuilt display settings and retry the same session. For a vendor-update test, compare the same weather scenario after the supported update.

Repair limits and when to stop

A configuration reset cannot guarantee removal of every hitch. It does not update a graphics driver or establish a vendor-bug match when the installed version and symptom are unknown.

How PitMedic recognizes it

AMS2 evidence identifies graphicsconfigdx11.xml near a display, startup, or settings failure.

Signals PitMedic may recognize

  • graphicsconfigdx11.xml
  • graphics configuration
  • display settings

Built-in response

For weather-transition hitches, check the installed version first: Reiza shipped weather-slot CPU improvements in 1.6.9.95 on September 12, 2026. If running an older build, review the supported update before resetting settings. A hitch alone does not prove configuration damage. For an evidenced configuration failure, preserve graphicsconfigdx11.xml and remove the active copy so AMS2 can regenerate clean display settings.
