ok so i lost a ranked match to this today, so forgive the tone. an open-world RPG hard-freezes during opening the map and then i get this:

Fatal error
The game has crashed and will now close.
DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
The GPU device instance has been suspended.
it says teh device was removed, removed! 馃檹 two weeks ago i had zero crashes. in between, the only change was the GeForce Security Update Driver update. my friends on teh same game with different cards are fine lol what does this error actually mean and how do i prove whether its teh drvier or my card??
