Hi Guys,

I am sure this has come up here multiple times and forgive me if this is in the wrong place and/or been answered elsewhere but in the last 24 hours, everytime I log onto my server I get this error.

I run my own server off my computer and play with another friend via Hamachi etc. Its not the quickest server/computer but it has always handled our game fine until I started getting this error.

I've looked it up online a lot and there seem to be a lot of people getting the problem but no obvious solution.

I can join the server fine as long as I stay within the immediate area that I spawn. As soon as I try to travel elsewhere, I get about 30 seconds away and it suddenly lags, doesn't load the chunks in front of me and then I get the above error. It also happens to my friend when she does the same. I stayed within the spawn area on our server for over an hour so its stable within a certain area.

Also of note, when I experience the error and reboot the server, I spawn with exactly the same items in my inv I had before the first error crash yesterday, regardless of anything I do after I spawn, though anything I put in a chest/alchemical bag will be there when I reload the server.

If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, I would be most greatful.

I have done all the obvious things of reinstalling both java and tekkit. It most definitely isn't a connection issue or anything to do with up/down speeds as the server is fine until I move away from the spawn location in my house.

Cheers in advance!

Thanks for this. I have onboard graphics Intel®HD. I haven't updated either the game or the drivers for my laptop so I don't think this is the problem, though I've just updated the chipset drivers and it hasn't had much of an effect... So confused as to why this is happening. Its odd because if I stay near the spawn point, the server is fine. I even tried to move slowly away and place world anchors to keep the chunks loaded but that makes no difference
