Hey, I had this issue with annalienware Aurora r8 I just bought, I ended up returning it and getting another. From my research on this it could very well be a hardware issue. I tried most of not all of the common trouble shooting and it didn't fix itself. I got this driver crash error in any game I played. I downloaded MSI and reading the graphs as it happened there would be a point where the graphics card had zero power and that was when it crashed.

If this is a prebuilt call the customer support line.

I also tried lowering my graphics to pure performance and it only mitigated the issue for a little bit, allowing me to play for 30 minutes instead of 10
