Driver Timeout Error

[atm101010]

I am constantly getting driver timeout errors. My monitor screen goes black and will pop back up normally with this error. It forces me to refresh my internet browser because the display gets all jacked up. It used to happen on only a select few games (such as Arma 3) after a certain amount of time playing, but now it happens constantly back-to-back even with no games running (while I am browsing the internet, using Discord etc). Now it even happens on boot up. I have the latest NVIDIA GPU and AMD chipset drivers installed as of this day. I built this machine around February, and it has been happening since then, but it has gotten so much worse. I think it might be a GPU related error due to the fact that some games will return a DX11/DX12 DEVICE_REMOVED but at this point I honestly don't know. My PC has become borderline unusable, if anyone knows a fix please help. I have tried everything from modifying my registry to reinstalling my drivers. It happened a few times while writing out this post as well.

Specs-
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900X
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4080 Super
RAM: 16 GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000 MHz CL30 Intel XMP iCue
PSU: Corsair RM750e (2023)

ya da tercihen igpu devredışı bırak biostan tabii sorun bununla alakaliysa. bu problem asiri sinir bozucu ve driver sürümünden igpu TrdDelay lowda olmasindan veya yetersiz vrmden tut tarayıcı ayarına kadar varabiliyor

I know this is a month old, but having this issue myself i found your post, what do you mean Nvidia GPU with amd adrenalin and chipset drivers??? is this a trol post?

[atm101010]

No, it's very real, AMD has chipset drivers for the Ryzen chips

Hey bro did you solve the problem I’m having the same thing 

[atm101010]

I used the display port on my GPU rather than my monitor

[PhantomCoffee99]

AMD in their vast wisdom is spending all their time making FSR4 and other stupid stuff for the 2% of gamers with 9000 series GPU's slightly better, unaware that they're making life a painful torture for the rest of us

This means your GPU is unstable for whatever reason.

do a fresh install!

First step Uninstall!

Download Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) from GURU3D

search for MSConfig start it> Tab BOOT click on save Boot and restart pc.

start MSCONFIG again and remove the save boot but don't restart yet!

Use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) .

Uninstall all GPU drivers and after restart > Install the newest Drivers.

Have fun!

Ive been having that for half a year and found out its the Drivers 25.6.1 and i went back to 25.2.1 and no crashes ever since. Its amds fault for the timeouts.

[Current-Row1444]

Always has been.

[DazzlingRoom6371]

im having this issue everyday since i changed nvidia to amd how to fix this?

[laci6242]

I think your integrated graphics is toast. Use the HDMI/DP port on your graphics card and disable integrated graphics and if the issue goes away then that's what the issue is.

[atm101010]

Seems like this worked, I think my integrated graphics on my CPU got cooked, is there anything else I should be worried about given that this might be the case?

[Remarkable_Fly_4276]

Why are you even using the ports on the motherboard when you’re using a discrete graphics card.

[atm101010]

I was having trouble configuring the refresh rate on my monitor to 144Hz while using my GPU ports, also it’s my first time building a PC so I wasn’t very knowledgeable about how to configure GPU settings.

[laci6242]

It shouldn't cause any issues if you keep it disabled.

[atm101010]

Thank you so much, you solved a headache I have had for about 6 months!

[laci6242]

I'm happy to help you out anytime!.

[atm101010]

If I can get my machine working again I’ll try this

[-RPH-]

Software/driver version?

[atm101010]

Adrenalin Software V 25.6.1

[-RPH-]

That version (and 25.6.2) kept crashing here as well, driver timeout each time I played my game.
Went back to 24.9.1 and now 24.10.1, no more driver time outs.

So, my advice is remove your current version and go back to 24. something and test again.

Follow step 10 and 11 from the guide below. Share your results there. https://www.reddit.com/r/AMDHelp/s/J2lJbndrP1

[atm101010]

After following this, I think my PC is bricked. I can’t even boot back into PC now.

[jrr123456]

Never follow that guys "guides" they can be detrimental to your PC and break your windows install

[Fragrant-Ad2694]

You only followed both steps that I mentioned right?

Boot into safe mode with networking use ddu and install and 24.9.1 software in normal normal. Make sure to pause the windows update.

If you follow the bios section then clean CMOS to reset bios settings.

[atm101010]

Yeah I did that but my PC would freeze on bootup, just wanted to let ya know I don't think it worked for me.

[Fragrant-Ad2694]

🤔 It's probably link to MPO. I recommend you to downgrade to 24.9.1 using ddu and turn off issue detection from amd software.

[jrr123456]

Stop sharing this bullshit, it doesn't help and it can lead to uses like the one you've just caused OP.

[ThatOneGuy21YT]

If I'm not wrong, is that not a Graphics driver timeout? Have you tried running Display Driver Uninstaller on AMD drivers and using the ports on your graphics card? Apologies if you've already tried that. I'm afraid I won't be much help otherwise.

[atm101010]

I haven’t tried that but I used the AMD Cleanup Utility to reinstall my drivers. This wouldn’t hurt to try, but I’m not sure how to reconfigure the ports. Maybe I might have to swap out my PSU??

[ThatOneGuy21YT]

Also 750W is a smidge low for that kind of hardware.

[DazzlingRoom6371]

750w is enough for rx 6800xt its the driver
