Drivers crash 566.03

My GTX 1080 crashes often on driver 566.03

FIX: Rolling back to 560.94 driver fixed this for me.

DirectX function "GetDeviceRemovedReason" failed with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("The GPU will not respond to more commands") GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080", Driver: 56603. This error is usually caused by the graphics driver crashing; try installing the latest drivers. GPUBreagrumbs:

I did do a driver re-install with DDU, it did help a bit where I was able to at least get through the intro sequence. But now it crashed again- Previously before the reinstall it was during character creation.

Would be nice to hear any possible fixes. I run the game on medium, with most nonsense turned off. vsync off as well and motion blur and such.

I don't have any overlays on, nvidia game mode is off and steam game overlay is off. Nothing else is on in the backround.

i fixed it by rolling back to older drivers. (24.8.1 is working for me, i'm on a 6800XT) maybe this can also work for nvidia or intel users.

Got the same error after being able to play without issues for about 10 hours or so on my GTX 1080 Ti. Rolling back to 560.94 fixed it for me as well; so far no more crashes on high settings, hair strands and stuff like that enabled.

Wish this were the case for me, it's giving me the directx crash on both of these drivers, so something within Veilguard is definitely doing it. So weird that I played this game for like 8 hours the first day with everything on (no ray tracing but strand hair enabled) and it played perfectly. Day 2 I have nothing but issues and no suggestions in here work. Some days I'm able to play for 5 hours with no issues, other days I can't play for more than 10 minutes without it crashing lol.

Anyone have issues with the new patch?

i did.. played 3 hours and got this crash with no crash info in event viewer. Haven't crash before that. I played maybe 11-12 hours.

Nothing so far on my end, but I only played an hour and a half so far after this patch. I am like a broken record, but it's a bad idea to roll back Nvidia drivers due to security vulnerabilities.

I've also been having the same issue on a 5800x3d and 2080ti .. but ONLY since the update. The new God of War Ragnarok had a similar issue that was fixed with a driver rollback. I'll try the hair thing and then I guess driver rollback.. AGAIN.

7800X3D + 4080 Super. The prologue i finished without errors, but then every 15-20 minutes I get the same error. I tried to reinstall the last drivers, but it doesnt solve the problem. Will be trying to keep find the solve

I had the same problem and refunded. Got the same error message and what was happening was my 1080-ti was overheating going above 84 degrees. Doesn't happen on any other games.

The 1080 is rated up to 92 degrees. 84 should not be an issue. I don't think that is the cause.

Nvida Geforce GTX 1080Ti here - SOLVED THE ISSUE

1080Ti here - been playing on ULTRA for long years all titles AAA and smaller ones - without issues. Veilguard is the ONLY game that made my GPU suddenly go crazy, and shut down the game, and show some Direct X errors.

FIX/STORY

After playing around with below, here are my conclusions.

1 - Resolution settings & individual graphic settings. I was playing 4K (3840 x 2160) on ULTRA (as always), but it is only possible with Graphic Settings of Individual Hair Strands" turned OFF - it makes the card go crazy and crash. Unfortunately found out the FPS not reaching anything close to at least 50-60 (more of a half, so concluded that although 4K looks so good, it is not appropriate for me). I lowered the resolution and played on 2560 x 1440 - full ULTRA settings including the "Individual Hair Strands" setting as well - no issue whatsoever, FPS reaching mostly 60 which is all I need for very smooth gameplay for me.

2 - Shaders - Someone recommended deleting the shaders cache folder from the main folder of the installed game - did that, although it changed nothing really, so now my game compiles shaders fast when starting for the first time during the day (a few seconds) and then it's done.

4- Drivers - I had the newest Nvidia drivers installed through GeForce Experience. Read somewhere that some users report no issues with driver 560.94, so I rolled back manually from 566.03.

SUM UP / TLDR

1 - Rolled back my Nvida Geforce GTX 1080Ti Drivers to 560.94

2 - Lowered resolution from 4K (3840 x 2160) on ULTRA SETTINGS to 2560 x 1440 on ULTRA SETTINGS

3 - Left shaders cache folder intact

No issues anymore

The first update helped tremendously! im able to play the game now. However my game still crashes with the same bug due to the gpu overheating. Still needs more tweeks but so happy to play!

I used all methods written above, even updating my BIOS, and that didn't fix anything.

But I found some kind of solution for me. I turned on the Nvidia overlay and checked how much my GPU was under load. I figured that when loading reached above 99%, Veilguard just instantly crashed with some DirectX errors (not only "the device had been removed" error). So I changed the settings to level when I had 60-80% loading, and that's it — I can play.
Strand hairs look great but in some scenes, it costs like 15-20% load of GPU!

I have 4080 + 7950x3d and play in 4k with balanced dlss.

Weirdly enough, one person in this thread had a solution that fixed my crashing issue. While I am on the previous driver (not 566), I started using my PS5 controller instead of my Series X controller and I haven't had a single crash since making this switch. No clue if this update will bork stuff up for me again but seems as if the Xbox controller has some sort of issue with Nvidia drivers.

I'll test this out on other games I've had this screen flickering, game crashing issue (since I've had it on multiple games I play controllers with) and see if it fully helped that.

Settings > Bluetooth & Devices -> HID compliant game controller and then remove plus downgrading to 560.94 NVIDIA drivers fixed it for me. Not saying its going to fix it for all.
