Hello All,
I have been hitting my head against the wall trying to figure out why nvidia drivers crash while in game giving me error event 4101: Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.

I have RMA my evga 1080ti 2 times now and I have replaced almost all of my pc competents at this point. I also RMA my corsair rm850x psu just to make sure.

I have tried using many different drivers with ddu and nothing makes a difference. I am currently using the latest drivers.

Just the other day I used GPU-Z and found that when my card hits 100% usage any game I play crashes due to nvidia drivers crashing. My temps are 50-60 C. Any idea what I can do to fix this?

My specs:
CPU: i7-7700k at stock speeds/overclocks
Memory: 2x 8GBs Patriot Viper ram 2400mhz
MB: Asus Prime z270-a
GPU: Evga Gtx 1080ti
PSU: Corsair RM850x
Windows 10 x64 Home 1709 16229.371

Any ideas would greatly be appreciated.

Hey man, interesting to find your post as I have the exact same problems but with a Palit gamerock premium 1080 ti, I even bought a new 750 watt Gold Be Quiet PSU and that hasn't fixed the problem either. Only solution I've found is to underclock by minimum of -2mhz and then the card runs stable but does not reach speeds that I've seen in other people's tests. Did you find a solution to your problem in the end or?

Hey man. Yeah I’ve heard of that solution and tried it to no avail. It worked for a little while but after a few days my drivers would crash again. I tired also changing the power target to 85-90% using EVGA PrecisionX which worked for a week or two. So far a lasting fix is to use MSI Afterburner. While using the program, type control + c and lower the clock speeds closer to the base clock line as the power usage increases.

GPU driver crashes are most of the time caused by instability issues.

Check your GPU BIOS version with GPU-Z. If it isn't up to date, make a backup of your BIOS with GPU-Z, then flash the newest one.

Another guy had the same exact issue but not as severe (stuttering/lagging), he fixed it by increasing voltage (unlock it first from settings (third party)) with MSI Afterburner (use EVGA precision if the voltage doesn't increase).

If it doesn't work for you, try maxing power limit too. If you don't get the fix by then, increase your voltage by half and max your powerlimit, then underclock a little.
