If not, then try turning Steam in-game overlay off but not from the game properties, but from Steam settings and use directx 12 instead of 11. I did this and played the game like 3+ hours and it didn't crash but somehow the in-game texture looks terrible even if I set it to epic. I haven't tried using directx 11 tho.
I will try this and response :-)
"my" textures are terrible too
Sometimes, rarely, it is a genuine driver crash but most of the time it is a result of Windows TDR (Timeout Detection and Recovery), which, if the hardware at any time does not respond within the default 2 seconds, Windows will automatically kill and restart the graphics driver.
In my experience, this is often caused by an unstable GPU overclock, whether manual or handled by the Nvidia Boost 2.0/3.0 algorithm (factory OCs by AIB partners can definitely be a cause and may need to be fine tuned to eliminate the problem). Sometimes an easy fix is just to crank up your GPU's power limit to 110% or more using Afterburner or Precision XOC. That might allow it to pull a little extra voltage during peak loads and remain stable through the point where it might have previously faulted. Another option is to fine tune the boost curve to use a little less frequency for each given voltage on all the higher frequency points along the boost curve.
Yet another option is to edit your registry to increase the TDR timeout from 2 seconds to 4, 5 or even more seconds. This one is sometimes hit or miss. If the actual cause is GPU core instability causing the hardware to fault and stop responding, this is no more than a band-aid, because what needs to be addressed is the actual OC instability and the card needs to be fed more voltage per clock until it is stable.
Honestly, the very first thing I would try is to DDU your drivers in safe mode and then do a clean install of the latest driver to eliminate that as a cause. Then, if it's still happening, move on from there and troubleshoot further.
I got a Zotac gtx 1080ti in my rig.
As far as i know, there is no overclocking.
I am very curious because since the last new OS installation, every game crashes.
Even blizzard games (D2R) - and there was no problems before the OS installation.
I tryed an Win default graphics driver (465.10) - still crashes.
Will try your steps now and give report :-)
Checked the Eventlog.
It says "nvlddmkm not found".
..will go on searching the problem.
Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000038
Started a new game - hung again.
Im finally done with this unfinished piece of coding.
searched the relevant file.
Fault ID: 13
nvddmkm.sys missing
ehm yes....after a clean installation the file is missing?
searched for it - no file there.
Got anyone an idea where to get this file?
(Newest Nvidia driverpack is installed - very strange)
tryed the 3dmark - even here there are errors.
i really have no idea what is wrong.
nvlddmkm is causing the trouble and i dont know how to fix this.
there are so many different points what it could be.
this is gonna be a looong weekend
That really should not be a fix, IMO. Every GPU we have in circulation today should run DX11 especially, but also DX12 without issues. This ability should go back to GTX 900 desktop and all GTX 1000 GPUs. There are certain GTX 900 mobile GPUs that are not actually DX12 capable. That's real ♥♥♥♥. They are Maxwell Gen 1 GPUs that are only DX_11_1 capable and the GTX 960M is probably the most popular example of this. It is not a DX12 GPU and never will be.
Meanwhile, the GTX 960 Desktop or better were hardware capable of DX12 and should have no issues with DX12 beyond the fact that a GTX 960 or a 1050 Ti (it's hardware counterpart) are very weak when it comes to memory bandwidth and might struggle with newer games due to that alone, not due to the fact that they can't handle rendering operations. They can, they just suck at it so the FPS witnessed will be bad.
OP's 1080 Ti is fully capable of both DX11 and DX12.
I almost want to repeat after hearing they are seeing errors to do a full driver reinstall.
OP, if you haven't yet. Download DDU from wagnardsoft and run it in safe mode.
That means holding your shift key while clicking Start > Power > Restart in normal windows. That should, on reboot, bring up the Windows Power user menu and let you pick the option to go through a lot of power user options, one of which is a safe mode boot. From there, run the DDU package you already got and pick the nvidia options to clear all Nvidia drivers and software from the system.
When it's done it will reboot the PC and then you should go ahead and get the newest Nvidia Drivers as you normally would from Nvidia.com/drivers/
Install those and reboot even if the software doesn't tell you that you have to.
From there, try everything again. Test your games and try to replicate any issues you've had.
If they still persist, that sucks because it may be a genuine hardware issue.
yesterday i made exactly this steps you've written down :-)
Also i renewed manually the new "nvlddmkm"Driver-File.
After 5 head-crackin' hours of searching the internet and trying lots of things, it seems to work.
(The final solution is the new "nvlddmkm"-File, so far)
I will keep you updated :-)
Important Note:
The nvlddmkm-File was not installed in the System32-Direction by the installer!
