Windows 10: Video_tdr_failure

Hello,Recently I have been getting a video_tdr_failure bsod every time I try and load a game. I have a 7 year old computer with a Nvidia Geforce 1080TI. I have already tried formatting my pc. When this BSOD has popped up recently, my displays stop working, also when i shut off my pc i cannot fully shut it off as the power never stops running so i have to unplug it.

VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE

Hi,



Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for posting. We appreciate your interest in Windows 10.



We apologize for the delay in response and inconvenience caused for you as unable to play the game due to an error VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE.



The VIDEO_TDR_ ERROR bug check has a value of 0x00000116. This indicates that an attempt to reset the display driver and recover from a timeout failed.

Check this:

The most common reason for this issue is that the graphics device is being overloaded or used beyond its capabilities.



This happens most often when playing graphic intensive games, but can happen with any process that uses a large amount of graphic resources, such as when editing or creating videos.



I would suggest you to download the latest graphics card drivers from the manufacturer website and install it in compatibility mode. Follow these steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps.

• 
  Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website.
  
• 
  Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘Properties’.
  
• 
  Click on the ‘Compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation.
  
• 
  Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists.
  

If the issue still persists, I would suggest you to get in touch with the game manufacturer since its specific to that particular game.



Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with updated status of the issue to assist you further.
