Graphical gltiches and crashes the start of February

[buffdiaz]

Has anyone else been experiencing graphical glitches and crashes. I get an error message saying:

 

GRAPHICS_DEVICE_REMOVED: The GPU will not respond to

more commands, most likely because of an invalid command

passed by the calling application

 

I guessed it had something to do with my drivers so I uninstalled and reinstalled each one via GeForce Experience.

I then uninstalled my modded version and save and ran a vanilla copy of WWE 2K19. Once again, it was crashing with the same error message.

If anyone is familiar with this, please let me know.

Thank you.

This is likely either a driver fault or a hardware fault. Try to install an older set of drivers (Important: Run Display Driver Uninstaller in Safe mode to remove all the remains of your old drivers, then install another driver set from the Nvidia website) and see if that helps.

If you don't actually need any of the features of GeForce Experience (shadow play or the likes), I'd also suggest to not install it, as it's often bloatware and can often lead to problems. Installing drivers via GeForce Experience isn't really recommended anyhow, as it won't get rid of old driver remains and thus some problems that have been fixed in newer drivers might carry over. I'd suggest to always use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to clean your old drivers before you install a different driver.

Thanks Caveman, I'll give that a try!

Looks like it worked like a charm, no longer am I having the graphical glitches, but also haven't seen a single crash yet. I uninstalled all of my nVidia drivers and didn't even reinstall older ones; just ran the program driver-less. Pretty sure I'm in the clear now thanks to your advice. Much obliged!
