The description for Event ID 153 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found

Hello,

I have been plagued by countless annoying random game crashes the past months with my pc with all pointing out to this error (from event viewer) when they occur: "The description for Event ID 153 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

The following information was included with the event: 

\Device\00000092

Reset TDR occurred on GPUID:100

The message resource is present but the message was not found in the message table"

Have tried numerous possible solutions already from forums, but with no luck.. Fortnite and many other games crash after random intervals. Can anyone suggest a solution for this?

My specs are the following:

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10400F CPU @ 2.90GHz

Installed RAM G-SKILL F4 3200-C16 32,0 GB DDR4

GPU EVGA GTX 980 Superclocked ACX 2.0

Drives Patriot M.2 P300 512GB and Seagate Hybrid HDD 4TB

Motherboard GIGABYTE H510M H V2

Microsoft Windows 11 Professional (x64) Build 22631.3593 (23H2)

Have to note that i recently replaced almost all parts from the pc due to a previous motherboard burnout which killed many components, expect the PSU (which was repaired by the technician) and GPU (which the technician said was saved from the burnout) and the Hybrid HDD (have this HDD since 2016). Apart from this, i restored my windows partition through Macrium Reflect image backup (from the Hybrid HHD saved backup).

Thanks in advance for any possible solutions to this, if any!

    Not an in place Windows upgrade where you keep settings and files. A reformat erases your drive and reformats it and instyall a clean install of WIndows.

    Bro contact ASUS and get a refund if you can. The card is not compatible with their garbage drivers.

    My ZOTAC card is FLAWLESS.

    I ran the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI) extensive test. Everything passed until it got to the memory extensive test, which failed. Then, I ran the memory test again, and the PC froze as it does when I run intensive games. It seems the RAM is faulty and needs to be replaced. I had been meaning to upgrade anyway, so I'll buy two new 16 GB sticks, and hopefully, there won't be any more issues. I also did a full system extensive check to see if there are more issues besides and if everything else is fine. Mind you, I had done memory tests before, and they passed. I guess running outside the Windows environment makes all the difference.

    That rarely works. I would do a clean install of Windows 11 and try older drivers just to have the same problem.

    What fixed it for me? I contacted ASUS and they bought back my RTX 4090. I now have a Zotac RTX 4070 Ti SUPER and have ZERO problems with the latest NVIDIA drivers.

    I just don't think they did a good job compatibility wise with some cards.

    Good luck.

    Could you clarify on full reformat?
