TDR delay
TDR delay
The standard TDR delay setting is 2 milliseconds. Would you like to adjust it from 2 to 10? You mentioned using a tool called TDR manipulator for this. I understand the Nvidia driver can become unresponsive during games, and the TDR delay determines how long Windows waits before giving up on the driver. Are you wondering why freezing occurs? Could it stem from a flaw in the Nvidia driver itself, a hardware issue, or perhaps the computer lacks the processing power to run the game smoothly? If you modify the TDR delay to 10, what assurances do you have it will resolve the issue within that timeframe? I noticed a Reddit discussion suggesting changing the delay resolved the problem. It seems unusual for the game to freeze immediately after adjusting the delay, especially if the Nvidia driver was previously stable. He reported experiencing BSODs only after the TDR timeout expired. Could overheating be a factor? Also, could a faulty Nvidia card trigger such an error? Since he’s the sole person complaining about this issue, it likely points to a hardware-related cause.
Either one, bug in the driver or hardware issue. "Too weak" generally only causes the game to run at a very low frame rate. None whatsoever. It could help if the driver is able to recover in less than 10 seconds, but not able to recover in less than 2. But there is no guarantee is can recover at all. Yes. BSOD is usually a sign of a hardware failure of some kind these days, but it's always possible it's caused by a software bug.
