My games are crashing on Win10

[m.veijola96]

I've been playing games on my pc for a long time without any issues, and I have had Win10 for about 1 year. Just within last few days, my games have started to randomly crash. It has occured with both Rocket League and Battlefield 1. With both games the crashing scenario was the same: screen froze completely, and I couldn't access my desktop at all. I could see the task bar etc. but couldn't minimize the window in which the game was open.

I used event viewer and found this regarding to BF1 crash:
Event ID: 1002
Exception code: 0x80000003
Exception error: 0x0000000004ebde75

With Rocket League, I could only find one log entry from the 4 crashes I've recently had. On that it said that Rocket League simply failed to communicate with Windows and it was shutdown.

Could someone enlighten me what could actually be causing this problem? Any solutions for it?

Thanks in advance.

Hello m.veijola96

Can you please try updating the graphics driver and confirm if all Windows updates are installed?

If the graphics driver was automatically updated recently and you stared experiencing the problem after that, rolling it back to its previous built might do the trick.

If the issue persists, you can try Restoring Windows to an Earlier Restore Point, i.e. to the state when the operating system worked fine.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!!

Hey, thanks for input!

I noticed that I didn't have the latest graphics driver, GeForce experience didn't inform me about it for some reason like it usually does. I've installed it now and so far haven't had crashes (I experimented for about 2 hours). Hopefully that did the trick.

Also checked my files from cmd usin sfc / scannow and all my system files seem to be working correctly. I was a bit worried since i Googled the code 0x80000003 and it seemed to directly refer to faulty system files.

if the driver for graphics came from windows update it will crash, Get your gpu driver from the maker of your graphics card

I've always downloaded my drivers from GeForce Experience so that shouldn't be the problem.
