hmmmm
hmmm if drive letters change on external drives, assign a fixed letter in Disk Management : right click teh volume, Change Drive Letter and Paths , and set teh one teh project expects. lmk how it goes
hmmm IRQL and page fault stop codes are often caused by a driver accessing invalid memory. Common culprits besides anti cheat are network drivers, RGB software, and old virtualization or VPN drivers. The dump tells u which one. hope that…
try a different cable and monitor. A bad cable gives sparkles and dropouts, but rarely the structured colored blocks that VRAM faults produce.
Check power before blaming the driver xD A PSU that's borderline or a daisy chained PCIe cable can cause exactly this under load. If it's a desktop, use two separate PCIe power cables if the card has two connectors.
Some people raise TdrDelay in the 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. worked for me anyway 🤷
@camilav846 nah thats not it, tdr has nothing to do with it
same issue here on my office machine. glad im not the only one. is adrenalin even worth bothering with or should i just leave it fingers crossed 🤞
wait does this also apply to ethenret?
