1. Check Drivers for updates!
2. Re-install DirectX 11

Thank you for your response but unfortunately I checked GeForce Experience and I am up to date with drivers and also ran dxwebsetup to try and see if that would work. I restarted my computer and tried again. No luck. Dont know if this helps but it seems to switch between buffer map and createtexture in the error message.

Read through this: https://ugetfix.com/ask/how-to-fix-dxgi_error_device_removed-on-windows-10/
Rolling back the GPU Driver is the most common solution.

Another question, is this error only appearing while playing Arma 3 or are other games affected too?

maybe they mentioned a way that works.

This error only appears playing Arma. R6S, CSGO, MW Warzone, Apex Legends, and GTA all work perfectly fine, just to name a few. But I will look through the link you sent rn.

Ok so far you may have helped me find a fix, I can now go around the menus after I rolled back my graphics driver. I am going to try playing for a little while and will report back. Thank you very much for your help Ninja.

Sure, glad to hear! It was a common issue with CPU/GPU Drivers back in the days.

There was a hotfix for the latest driver, but it was only available via Nvidia website. No idea why it has not been published via their app.
