I upgraded my PC to windows 11 and everything was running completely fine till one day when I was playing a Game and it lagged too much or I should say kind of got freezed I tried to exit the game or head to task manager to hard close the game but it couldn't being able to perform anything... Kind of my whole PC got hanged. So I pressed the restart button and after then I have started getting problems, firstly my PC suddenly getting lagged too much and suddenly it gets restarted automatically I tried a lot of things to troubleshoot it but I wasn't getting fixed so I just reinstalled the window

Error code: 43 in Device Manager for Graphics driver

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while updating the graphics driver for your PC, and you receive an error code 43 in device manager. I would like to know the exact model of the laptop.



As per the article
Error codes in Device Manager in Windows, the error code 43 means that the device has failed in some manner. Since you have already tried uninstalling and re-installing the drivers, I would suggest you to try installing
the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps.



Refer the article
Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows, to install the drivers in compatibility mode.



If the issue persists, please get in touch with the manufacturer, as it can be an issue with the hardware.
