I’m still facing the problem please help. 🙁
I got the same error on windows but when i moved to linux the error has gone! It seems the problem is because of windows OS . Try to update the driver and if that doesn’t fix then take it to the manufacturer’s service center.
I have the same issue. I updated the drivers and also edited the registry to add TdrDelay… and the problem persists. I’m going a bit crazy trying to get this fixed as it only happens when I’m playing one particular game… unfortunately, it’s the game I’m addicted to :/
Running Win 7 64, IE11. The fix did not work. The problem only started with the upgrade to IE11. The PC does not crash using Firefox.
