# To avoid crashes at the start of the first race of a play session, when on the loading screen with your car's name and tire types, wait for the loading circle to abruptly stop; this is a sign that you have run out of VRAM. Hit F9 to toggle between hardware and software rendering and wait a moment for it to respond. Once it changes renderers, wait for it go go around a few more times, then hit F9 again to return to your desired renderer. This refreshes the emulation state of GSdx and clears the bad VRAM. If you notice that it never actually stalls out at all, you may still need to clear the VRAM and should hit F9 twice to do so before starting the race.
