While I was enjoying video games, a network issue prompted me to restart my computer. Now, whenever I attempt to play any game, this message appears at the bottom of the screen: https://pasteboard.co/IK8xOL6.png
If possible, stop using the service and observe whether your system continues to function properly. Alternatively, you could attempt a different driver version—you may have recently installed an update through Windows Update. If that's the case, consider reverting to a prior driver using the “Rollback” feature. This can be accessed by navigating to Device Manager, selecting your NVIDIA card’s properties, and then finding the “Driver” tab where the “Roll Back” option is located.
Hello, initially, attempt to shut down any running applications in the background, testing each individually to identify the source of the issue.
If this approach fails, I suggest performing a Clean Boot. This method simulates starting Windows with only the essential programs and services, excluding third-party software and drivers. Carefully disable all non-Microsoft applications and services while ensuring you do not deactivate any Microsoft components. If the problem resolves during a Clean Boot, it indicates that one of the disabled programs or services was responsible. Subsequently, re-enable programs and services selectively, pinpointing the problematic element.
Note: Ensure you hide Microsoft services during this process.
Detailed instructions for executing a Clean Boot can be accessed on the Microsoft website: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help...in-windows.
Should the problem vanish within a Clean Boot, you've identified software as the cause. If it continues to occur, it’s probable that a driver or hardware malfunction is at fault. In this scenario, I recommend trying an older version of your video driver first.
I’ve reduced my options to the three NVIDIA services—what should I do next?
If it’s helpful, try turning off the service and observing whether your system continues to operate correctly. Alternatively, you could experiment with a different driver version – it's possible that a recent update through Windows Update occurred (review your update history). If this is the case, you might want to “revert” to a prior driver. This process can be performed through Device Manager by accessing the properties of your NVIDIA card and selecting the “Driver” tab, where a “Roll Back” option should be present. Using this will enable you to return to the previous driver version, if available.
