I recently upgraded to Windows 10, I had Windows 8.1 before and did not like it so, I was more than willing to upgrade. Since I upgraded I have been getting the "VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE" Error while playing a game on Steam called Borderlands 2. This Error does not appear while playing any other game and did not happen before the upgrade. Any help with this? I have read quite a few posts that talk about updating the Graphics Card's Driver, but it is up to date. Not really sure what to do, other then downgrade back to Windows 8.1 until I can find an appropriate fix for this issue.

intel seems to be slow to fix their drivers

2015-10-05T09:43:42+00:00 I Have same problem after update from 8.1 to windows 10 ! NVidia 745m with latest driver for win 10 or previous driver version doesn't matter. after couple hours of online game error VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE (igdkmd64.sys) ! The only way to fix it is back to 8.1 where I don't have the same error! I already done this 3 times...but Microsoft does not want to fix it !!!!
DEAR MICROSOFT when you will already FIX IT ?
