Windows 10: Application has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware in windows 10 - Black screen...

I've recently got a new GFX and it has been working fine. But right now I keep getting black screens/freezes that last about 30 seconds, and then I can use the PC again. This can happen quite often, sometimes 5 times in 5 minutes. As well as Application has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware in windows 10.

I've tried a couple of different things, such as:

• 
  
  New drivers for my GFX and installing older drivers as well.
  New chipset drivers
  Run DISM /RestoreHealth
  Run SFC /scannow
  Uninstalling latest Windows Update
  Unplugging and replugging the GFX into PCI-E socket
  Checked heating
  
  System restore to earlier date.
  

PCSpes:

Just managed to check the eventlog --> System, and save it. Looks like a lot of errors and some of them I have no clue about. Not sure how to show these here since they are in danish?

Skærmdriveren nvlddmkm stoppede med at svare og er genoprettet. But can see that this driver stopped working a lot: nvlddmkm

Any help on how to fix this would be much appreciated.


I can use the computer if i go into device manager and deactivate my graphics card. Hoping this is a software issue and not hardware.

Application Blocked from accessing Graphic Hardware

Recently I've been experiencing the app blocked from accessing graphic hardware issue with a specific game I play a fair amount. The game seems to work but upon initial starting I would get clear audio but bad or no visuals forcing me to restart the game
manually by shutting it down from the task manager. I have discovered a simple fix to this problem though, and it lies in the graphics settings for your display.

To fix the issue I've been having I searched up and opened my computer's Events Log, to examine where the error was occurring and get an accurate description. (It gave the same message as the notification, this step may be negligible)….

The next step in my process was to access my computer's system settings (for windows 10 the primary settings for your computer)

Going there, select the display settings and look for a link text that says "Graphics Settings"

Upon clicking on this, you will be presented with a graphics performance preference text and a drop down box that gives the options for a Classic Application or a Universal Application. I didn't fiddle with this at all but there is a browse button below that.

Clicking this browse button I was able to select the application that was being blocked and I set it to always run in high performance mode. thus fixing my issue once I restarted the game in question.

For reference I run an XPS 8930 with an Intel(R) Core i5-8400 CPU with 64 bit Windows 10 and an AMD RX 560 graphics card.

I don't know if this will help anyone else, but a colleague of mine suggested I post my solution to the forums to help others experiencing the same issue.
