omg the message showed up again
i always just freeze and unfreeze then after it just crashes my pc or make it laggy
it just gave me the message after like 10 secs\
Did u ever get the crash message?
nah but like i think if i wait enough it does shows the message, it somtimes shows it and it somtimes doesnt, when it doesnt its because it reboots my whole pc. But eailer today it was showing it if it didnt reboot my pc
its been doing this stuff for a while im just tryna play the gameeee
How long?
its been doing this for like a few weeks
i just gave up tbh
Dm'd u a link
bet
mine started ever since i hard reset my laptop but idk if it was cause of the reset
bc i didnt play val for a long time prior
prob just got out dated
Open windows settings
Apps and programs
Search for "nvidia"
Delete EVERYTHING it lists there nvidia related (even the control panel)
Then open Microsoft store
Download nvidia control panel from there
Then go to the nvidia website and download the drivers for ur EXACT gpu model
Install the drivers
Select clean install when installing the drivers.
okay
so all of these gone?
Yep
i love u @jidat
Np
installing contrl panel rq
wait so how do i download the drivers for my exact gpu model again
and its nvidia.com right
geforce drivers?
sorry im kinda slowww
okay
these 2 came up do i get both?
The 1st one only
kk
Game ready driver
Also make sure u do an advanced install
And a clean install
okay
It will give u the option during the installation
Also don't download geforce experience if it asks u to
mk
do i open
in folder
or
like from here
Just there
Doesn't matter rly
k
omggg
i still have the graphics card problem
idk why
it was working perfectly fine for like a minute
then the same message
did i have to restart my laptop
Should've yea
okay
ok so its really weird
valorant runs fine and doesnt quit
unless i click off of it
or press the iwndows icon
thats when it says the graphics card failure
Open windows settings
Search for hardware accelerated gpu scheduling
okay
Turn it off
uh for some reason when i turn it off and i restart it goes back to on is there a way to save it?
nvm i think im just restarting wrong
im still getting the problem but this time valorant goes black screen and wont close-
Is there any settings in val that I would need to change ?
@jidat hii sorry for bothering but ur like the only person who actually has been help lol was that the last advice u could give or is there any other ways ? its ok if not
U could try disabling ur igpu in device manager
Oh ok ty
did it work
I haven’t tried yet
Atm my val still crashes if I click off of it
same lmfao it doesnt matter even if i play like 20 games in a row but the moment i tab out it says my driver crashes
omgg same exact problem
i thought the problem was my nvidia graphics card because i opened the app and it needed updates but that didnt fix it
if u ever find a solution could u lmk tyy
it prevents me from playing other games too like overwatch its soo annoying
im fine w pther games just valorant lmfao
i cam run fortnite or genshin in high grarphics just fine lol
the workaround for the alt tab crash is playing on bordless/ windowed fullscreen
ive honestly done that even going to the properties thing and disabling the full screen optimization
ive never had this problem until a few weeaks ago so im not sure whether its my graphics or valorant
i made sure i have the new intel drivers and it told me everything is updated
unless im supposed to be doing an update of sum and i just had an update on my BIOS as well so im rlly confused
My Pc sometimes crashes when i alt tab on fullscreen too so
i dont think its an update issue
If it happens too frequently on your device even in bordless you can double check with support if there is anything you can do
they said eveything shit still happens idek no more LOL
Well make a good youtube playlist so you don't have to alt tab 🤣
honestly its so funny bro like i can run every high end graphics game with the highest ssetting and valorant just crashes on me w the lowest settings possible ever bro😭
it dont even make sense valoant is the only game i spend my money on too 😭
Well same, I played an all settings maxed out
alt tab just flexing on us ngl
YO RADNEX
RADBEX
U HELPED ME BRO
huh?
LOL I CHECKED UR USER IN DISCORD AND UR THE ONE WHO HELPed me wait
tell me this isnt you
kekw
😭🙏
it's not lol
oh shit deadass
crazy coincidence tho mb
but thats crazy wtf
never knew someone would use that nick
bro thats crazy
but yeah i had like two riot support helped me did everything they told me to do and even uninstalled some drivers 😭
ye man that alt tab thing just doesn't work
idk why honestly 😭
Omg lemme try this rn
How could I do that for overwatch while outside of the app
Cause I can’t even open it
overwatch?
not sure never played, but it should be in the in game settings
