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.

    I see, since ur having issues with NVIDIA drivers shouldn't you be at NVIDIA forums intead of Microsoft? Microsoft isn't going to solve ur issues for NVIDIA drivers.

    I'm sorry you are wrong.

    Are you going to tell me that I should be on the Intel forum because my 

    issue is with an Intel driver?

    Incorrect. My issue ONLY started with the upgrade to Win 10.

    So it's an issue that MS needs to keep after Intel (and Nvidia) about.

    MS has acknowledged the issue and told us about a month ago

    that Intel was going to give us an updated driver, hasn't happened yet.

    It's old. I had a Acer that was over 6 years old. It barely ran. Computers aren't meant to live forever. That's why they market new ones all the time. You're never gonna find a computer that doesn't have any problems. I had to use a Mac for school, I was always running into problems.

    I'm having a similar problem. I downloaded the Intel driver updater, which told me I have no Intel products! Manually tried to install Intel graphics drivers, but the installer said my machine did not meet requirements! Running Windows 10 on 2007 HP a6300f Pavilion with new EVGA (NVidia) GeForce 8400gs GPU.

    Hey! You're entitled to your opinion, but your reply isn't helpful. I admit your suggestion would have been cheaper, but I'm happy with what I have at the moment. I just get a bit irritated that the Packard Bell has turned out to be the useless pile of junk!
