I've been having issues with my graphics cards drivers crashing and being forced to recover. I believe this is due to a virus that is infecting my computer as my svchost.exe is eating up large amounts of memory. This is linked to viruses like BitMiner which i think is using my GPU and causing the crashes. I have used malwarebytes and scanned twice and I haven't found anything that could be causing the issue. After removing what was found the svchost.exe issue is still occurring. There are also multiple instances of svchost.exe each running at around 2-4000K with one running at over 200,000K. I need help to resolve this issue.

What type of VC do you have? How long has it been in use and how much use has it gotten?

I have had driver crashes before on several VCs none were due to viruses but other issues.
