Alt-Tab crashes computer, freezes entire system and restart needed.

Hey guys! My game crashes every time I play valorant and alt-tab. This issue only happens when I am in a comp game or a queue. This is very difficult for me, because I can't check messages, play music or manage my stream. Please help! I have tried toggling fullscreen options and NVIDIA low latency, but nothing helps. I think it must be an NVIDIA side issue, because when I install new graphics drivers it fixes it for a while.

Also, the issue is infrequent but extremely taxing and sometimes results in AFK penalties.

that should be more than enough. What i think is happening is you are changing from your actual gpu to your integrated gpu when switching from valorant to a chrome tab/desktop.

try this in settings wait are you on a laptop or a pc? if you're on a pc, you are not switching to integrated graphics if you have the hdmi plugged into the right port

Hmm If you can, update GPU drivers And windows Or best option: reinstall windows if it's a real fuss
