    three black screens tonight, all while playing an open-world game... the third time it didnt recover and i had to hold teh power button.

    USB Audio Device Properties

    USB Audio Device Properties
Device status:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)

{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.

    the gaming laptop is about two years old, i updated to MV42N VGA Driver for WinXP because a game asked me to, and honestly i regret it, ive read about TDR, DDU, rollback, registry tweaks, and now Im overwhelmed, can someone give me a sane order to try things in sooo Im not changing five things at once? any ideas??

    hmmm is any overclock, undervolt or "OC mode" enabled in the GPU software or BIOS? ??

    ahh classic since it started right after teh update, roll back first :/ Device Manager > Display adapters > right-click ur GPU > Properties > Driver > Roll Back Driver... if the button is greyed out, download the previous package from teh Shuttle support page and install that instead. hope that helps :)

    Some people raise TdrDelay in teh registry to hide this. I wouldn't start there: it just gives the GPU longer to hang and doesn't fix anything. Use it as a diagnostic at most, and remove it afterwards.

    yeahhh check power before blaming the driver. A PSU thats borderline or a daisy-chained PCIe cable can cause exactly this under load. If its a desktop, use two separate PCIe power cables if teh card has two connectors. worked for me anyway 馃し

    wait what id actually do DDU first rather than a rlolback... rollback keeps teh same leftovers around, and a clean slate tells u more. just my 2 cents
