            Bug ID: 37416
           Summary: The Sims 3: Display locks when running in window, uses
                    100% cpu
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.29
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: opengl
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: wine at zootal.com
      Distribution: ---

When running windowed, after a while (usually 5 minutes or less, but sometimes
it will run for a few hours), the display will stop updating. Sound and music
will continue, and clicking on the screen sometimes gives a sound as if the
game were still running. One core will be running at 100%, ts3w.exe. The
display will be frozen, and it will not recover.

The console will display this message over and over again:

err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x7dace6a0 "opengl.c:
context_section" wait timed out in thread 0051, blocked by 002e, retrying (60
sec)

Once this occurs, you have to kill the wine processes.

This has occurred with the last several wine builds, and still exists in
1.7.29. 

I have observed this with Slackware 14.1, both 32 bit and 64 bit, on different
machines. I'm using an nvidia 660 video card, and it has occured with both the
current drivers as of this writing, and the last couple of version of nVidia
drivers.

This does not happen if running full screen.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Run Sims 3. In options, set the display to Windows mode.
2) Load a saved game, or start a new one. Wait a while.
