PC crashing after closing games

Hi Morning,

I have tried both of those things you have suggested but to no avail.

I have paid a pc specialist to come around and have a look and they made sure bios and drivers were up to date but couldnt replicate the crashes ive been getting.

I am still managing to play the one game i have with friends.

Sometimes if i logout back to main menu of game it will crash, restart pc. other times it wont and then other times it crashes, restarts pc shortly after closing game

Thanks for your help so far

 

PC crashing after closing games

Hi Ben h3,

Thank you for your questions in the Microsoft Support Community.

Knowing that you experience a PC crash after closing a game,I would like to confirm the following information to you:

• whether this problem occurs in a specific game or in any game.
  

Thank you very much for the WinDbg, I found some information inside:

• VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE is a blue screen error message that is usually directly related to the graphics card driver.
  
• nvlddmkm.sys is the core program of the graphics card, so I judge that the problem you are experiencing may be related to the graphics card driver.
  

You can try the following:

1. Update the graphics card driver . The steps can be referred to:

Update drivers manually in Windows - Microsoft Support

Download address for Nvidia drivers：

2. If the above method does not work, you can try to remove and reinstall the driver, see the link in the previous step for the exact steps.







Hopefully, these steps will help you fix the PC crashing issue. Please let me know if my understanding is wrong.

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?
