Hey everyone. I've been experiencing BSODs on my Lenovo Legion with a 4080M recently, and I'm not sure when this started since I just began gaming again. It might be linked to a driver update. Lately, while playing Fallout 3, I've had these crashes sometimes—about once every couple of hours. The last few sessions were fine, but today I got one at around the 20-minute mark. I've tried several fixes so far: turned off Windows automatic updates, reinstalled the DDU driver from NVIDIA, and disabled a Lenovo overclock option. From some research, possible causes include a faulty GPU driver, an older driver version restoring stability, or even a buggy game. I know some say Fallout 3 isn't stable, but I don’t think it’s causing a BOSD. I’ve attached the latest minidump and windbg output. Would any of you have advice? Thanks! 021226-15375-01.dmp latest.txt
