I think the latest Windows cumulative update may have fixed it. I haven't had a BSOD in my latest sessions! Hooray!

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.

2015-09-19T13:15:59+00:00 I agree that Mac's are well rounded, but between the price and lack of compatibility for what I use computers for (Gaming Mainly). PC's are cheaper and can be built to specification. There's way more customization, with windows. Mac's are good for school, other than that, they're quite useless, at least to me.
HOORAH!! I think I am fixed I do not know how it happened but now when I run across videos online they worked right away just mousing over them and have not yet failed

They say "Update the drivers," I have gotten this error minutes after updating the drivers. Intel, nor NVIDIA have a solution for the problem, because it's not their problem.

2015-09-18T07:34:35+00:00 I agree with you Gage. I still get problems with the Mac, although so far I have always found it much easier to fix them than I ever did with PCs. I still think PCs and Windows have a lot going for them, but on balance I now prefer Macs (apart from their ridiculous prices!). I reckon though that when my Mac eventually gets too old or just gives up the ghost I'll go back to PCs 'cos I won't be able to afford another Mac!!
