i was waking the monitor from standby on my gaming desktop when the whole screen just went black. Audio kept going for a second, then sttutered, then the picture came back with a little notification that the display driver had stopped responding and recovered. This started teh same evening i installed the NVIDIA GeForce Graphics Driver 436.48 update. Heres the message i keep getting:

USB Audio Device Properties
Device status:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.
It happens maybe twice an hour now. Before the update, zero problems for months. i dont want to start blaming the hardware if this is just a bad driver, but i also dont wanna ignore a card thats on its way out 😤 Where do i even look first? pls help 🙏
