  1. Every time Im in a competitive shooter, somewhere around opening the map, the game freezes and closes with this:

    Fatal error

    Fatal error
    The game has crashed and will now close.
    
    DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
    The GPU device instance has been suspended.
    

    the error text mentions DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED. the graphics card is obviously still in the PC lmao this only started after I installed ASUS W5A/Ae Graphics Driver 6.14.10.4384. I've verified game files, lowreed settings and cloesd every overlay I could find 👍 still crashes. is teh driver teh culprit, or did the update just expose a problem that was already there? pls help 🙏

  2. Any overclock or undervolt, including on the VRAM?

  3. yeahhh to stop Windows Update replacing ur chosen driver: run gpedit.msc (Pro) and enable Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Do not include drivers with Windows Updates. on Home, use System > About > Advanced system settings > Hardware > Device Installation Settings > No. good luck man!

    oh ive been there lol look at teh games own crash logs too. Many engines write a log with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG vs DEVICE_REMOVED vs DEVICE_RESET. hung usually means a timeout; removed can also mean the card actually dropped off the bus, which ponits at power or teh slot.
