I know that there are many threads on this topic, but I have tried all of the "solutions" from them and I am still encountering the issue.
I have tried two different graphics cards, no overclocking, both with clean-slate installations of their respective drivers and both encountered this issue. They can run basic windows operations just fine, but as soon as I start up anything remotely graphically intensive, the display drivers crash, sometimes leading to a necessary hard reset.
I thought it was a problem with my old graphics card (a GTX 760) so I bought a brand new GTX 960, installed it and the errors are still occurring. I must also state that the computer runs perfectly fine off of the motherboard's on-board graphics processor, no issues at all.
The following is a list of all of the suggestions I have tried:
- Fully uninstall and reinstall all drivers from a blank slate
- Tried older drivers
- Enable and disable graphics card and internal graphics in BIOS
- TDR timeout registry value changed
- Set windows graphics options to high performance
- Underclocked power and MHz of GPU
- V-sync on and off
- Highest graphical settings, lowest graphical settings
- Physically re-seat graphics card and RAM
- and more...
