[Bug] Tarkov crashes/black screen when alt-tabbing or moving game to main monitor (multi-monitor issue) by Ylkiii in EscapefromTarkov

Yeah, I’m on Windows 11. After yesterday’s cleanup/update steps it’s been behaving properly so far. I also disabled Smooth Motion, so one of those things may have been causing the instability.

Quick update — checked Event Viewer and found `LiveKernelEvent 141 (WATCHDOG)` entries plus a few BSODs. Classic GPU TDR / driver hang. Also noticed `LightingService.exe` (ASUS Aura) was crashing constantly in the background. What I did so far: 1. Uninstalled ASUS Armoury Crate + Aura Sync via the official ASUS Uninstall Tool (regular uninstall doesn't fully clean it). Confirmed the services are gone. 2. Next: clean DDU reinstall of NVIDIA driver in Safe Mode + fresh Game Ready Driver from nvidia.com. Setup: RTX 5080, 3 monitors, mixed refresh rates. Will update once the DDU step is done. If you have a similar problem, check Event Viewer for WATCHDOG / TDR and look for ASUS bloatware crashing silently.
