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.

    what build are you using, video hardware and driver version?

    My guess is that they are on RTM 10240, since they don't have an "Insider" tag.

    Well, Microsoft and nVidia have had since July, and tomorrow it's November. You can suffer with an unreliable machine into the next decade, if you want, or you can try to help yourself. That's up to you.

    My Radeon is beautiful. No more GeForce for me.

    Thank you for your helpful post. Did you read the thread title?

    You know those people who answer customer questions on Amazon with "I don't know"? Or "I'm not having the problem"?

    Really helpful.

    I DID answer the question. I stated that my issue with TDR resolved when Intel updated

    their driver.

    Nvidia on the other hand may still have a problem.

    And if you aren't an Insider, it's also possible that a newer Win 10 build fixed the issue.

    I am on the fast ring and the last 2 builds have been less likely to crash, but last weeks build still has a lot of of festering issues
