Hello all,
New here but I'm at the end of my tether and have tried everything I can think of.
In Guild Wars 2 particularly, though have found it also happens in CS:GO, whenever the game loads something (such as a map change) it freezes. If I tab out and back in, the game will suddenly unfreeze.
The games crash entirely if I try and change the resolution, though in GW2 if I change to windowed mode and then back to a full screen resolution it works.
I get this error from GW2:
And CS:GO Hasn't actually crashed but it has frozen.
Things I have tried so far:
- Entirely installing graphics drivers using Display Driver Uninstaller
- Checking my network routes
- Re-installing drivers
- Updating Graphics drivers for both integrated graphics and dedicated graphics.
- Re-installing both games
- Checking GPU running correctly with GPU-Z
- Updating DirectX (didn't need updating) as per the error message.
- Virus and Malware scans
- Windows update
- Disabling Startup programs
- And quite a lot more...
I understand there is issues with DirectX9 and Windows 10 with legacy games, which is what GW2 is running on. But I haven't got far with what to do about this information because as far as I can tell GW2 is using the correct DLLs

I feel like I am missing something so feel free to ask more information.
EDIT:
This happened out of nowhere after a few weeks of not playing either game.
I have previously been able to play both of these games just fine on my laptop. I have checked my windows updates and have found nothing pertaining to graphics.

. CS:GO stopped having the issue a few days ago but Guild Wars 2 remains an issue. Those screenshots were from just a few minutes ago and the map loading issue is still a problem. I am in contact with the Guild Wars 2 Support people but they are mostly offering pretty generic solutions (graphics drivers and stuff like disabling startup programs.. for whatever reason)
