Can someone help me with some trouble shooting? I just installed a new Aorus 1080 ti Xtreme into my system, and I'm having some issues. It's replacing my prior 980 ti SLI setup. When I installed it, I also went through display driver uninstaller and then downloaded the newest Nvidia Driver / GeForce Experience package. It is definitely not running okay, though. I also went back and tried the original 1080ti drivers, and that's no good either.

When I try to launch Gears 4, it crashes after the first splash screen (was running fine 30 minutes ago).
When I play Dark Souls 3, I'm getting screen tearing, even though G Sync is enabled (yes, I have a G Sync monitor). And it's enabled for full screen and windowed. Again, not happening with prior setup as of an hour ago.

With having already done DDU and updating the drivers, I don't really get what else could be causing these issues? Does anyone have any ideas? I have absolutely no idea what to try next.

Per WhoCrashed, I am having the following issues:

Let me know if you get another PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA BSOD

Install TechPowerup GPU-Z and nvidia inspector.
On nvidia inspector, check with P-State is active.

Try running the games in windowed mode and check if the GPU is being utilized properly (On Ultra, a good around 80% GPU should be used). Also try benchmarking with Heaven/Valley benchmark tool on Ultra/Maximum presets and see if they have any issues.

First of all, system specs would be great.

This will most probably fix the "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA" BSOD.
If you're having more than 8GB RAM (and using Win7 or above) right click on "my computer", click "Properties", a window will appear with system ratings and basic info.

On the left hand panel, click "Advanced system settings".

Inside the performance box it'll say "Visual effects, processor scheduling..."
Under the "Performance" window, click "settings". Another small window will appear with "Visual effects" opened.
Go to the tab right next to it named "Advanced". Click "Change" under virtual memory.
Either set it to zero for all drives or check "automatically manage the paging file size for all drives" box.

If that still doesn't work, set paging file on C:\ drive = 16 times less than your total RAM and on any other drive, set page file size equal to your RAM size.
You can also completely remove pagefile if you have like 16 GB RAM.

Download latest nvidia drivers from www.geforce.com/drivers and DO NOT UNINSTALL, just run the installer and check "perform a clean install". It'll take care of the rest.

Hi there,

I changed the page file to 0, as you suggested.

As for my specs:

Gigabyte G1 Z97X Mobo
i7 4790k @ 4.7ghz
16 GB RAM
500 GB SSD
3 TB HDD (storage, E Drive)
1080 ti (of course)
Windows 10


And I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers a good 5 or 6 times now. I've done it through the disc that came with the card. I've done it from Nvidia's website. I've done it through GeForce experience. I've even tried older 1080 ti drivers.

As this thread is already solved and you have a different problem (BSOD while net surfing on GTX 1080Ti) please start a new thread.
