Crashes and SD-Kart File System broken afterwards

[dioabd]

I get lot of freezes like after 20 mins of gameplay on N64 for example. Or when i press reboot it just does not come back up ending in a broken filesystem of the SD Card and i have to set up everything again and again. Even without freeze it happens on reboots. Power source is a official one with high current and thick cable. Tried 3 different SD Cards, Samsung, Sandisk and noname. All three same result. I have copper heatsinks installed with special thermal glue. Temperature is always low.   What could be the reason? How to get it working stable?   Best regards, Dio

Hello recalbox 3.2.11 or 3.3.0beta17 ?

Sorry, my mistake... Forgot to mention:  Its 3.3.0 Beta 17... Will the stable release be the better choice in this case? Goldeneye N64 freezes every time i tried it after 15-20 minutes. And SD is always corrupted after that. (Have an image now so its an easy restore) On reboots it happens sometimes that it does not boot up anymore. So i use to press shutdown, and reboot manually by power disonnect. Then it works fine.

Just tried it again. It happens also always when i:   1. Transfer a 600MB PSX ISO over Network sharing to the PSX Roms folder. 2. Reboot after transfer is finished. 3. It does not boot anymore and shows EXT4-FS Error

It also happens randomly on normal booting.  It seems to boot up fine, but bluetooth not working. When trying to shutdown: EXT4FS Error. Journal not found or something like that.   No matter which SD Card i try... Is my PI Broken? (Works fine with other software)

So, what pi version do you have ? is it overclocked ? do you know how to use putty ? For large files transfert, it is recommended to use winscp https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Network-access-with-WinSCP-(EN)

Thx a lot, with WinSCP the transfer is going a lot better and does not stop anymore. With overlocking (1050mhz, even if i choose lower core\sram clocks manually) it keeps eating SD Cards on every second boot... I think my pi2 model is very bad for overclocking, it crashes on every second boot. And with normal 900mhz clocks also crashes often. So i think the pi2 i got or at least some of its components are just a bad choice for overclocking. Maybe the next one is better. I ordered another one hoping to get it stable at 1050mhz. I used coolers, with special thermalglue and everything but it keeps crashing even on minimal overclocking, while it is pretty cool.   Iam dreaming of getting it stable at

Clock 1100   OV 4      Core 550   SRAM  483     0 0 0   OK (multi-test) 944     1549
 
But when it already keeps crashing on standart clocks, something must be wrong with it...

I got it...   Reason was simply my pi2. It was completly unstable, crashing often, no chance with any overclocking.   I exchanged it. With the same SD Cards the new one runs perfect, no more destroyed file systems. Even with overclocking.   Sometimes if Goldeneye N64 freezes i just pull the power cable and it boots up fine.   So i had only bad luck and got first a pi2 which had bad components. The new one is rock stable.
