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

After weeks of having this error and program crashes I think I discovered the solution. I reformatted my windows on a new partition and installed all drivers except for the GPU drivers. Ran the game that always crashes and low and behold no crashes. I checked what version driver was loaded and in device manager it was 30.0.14.7212. So I found the corresponding NVidia game ready driver which was... https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/180557/en-us/

So I went back to my original version of windows and removed the drivers with DDU and installed that nvidia driver i just linked. It has been 24 hours and no crashes.

Hope this works for you too, good luck.

Figured I'd give my input. Asus z790-f mobo, zotac 4090, i9-14900k. I've swapped ram, I've installed a new cpu. Completely wiped pc and no matter what this error comes and goes with different updates. Everyone keeps claiming it to be a failing card yet it passes all stress tests and benchmarks and only crashes when playing CoD. Changing permissions, rolling back drivers, messing with bios only temp fixes the crashes until windows or CoD forces an update. Then I'm right back to square one with 5-10 Event id 153 popping up in event viewer causing my entire pc to freeze and even bsod at times. I have verified this to be software as I have a 6 year old pc with a 1080ti and i7 experiencing the exact same error except it has not crashed. I'm almost 100% sure it came with one of the big windows update 23H2 type updates since they're the only ones that update automatically with windows. All of my other drivers are only updated when absolutely required. I tried rolling nvidia back to October of last year both game and studio ready drivers, Tried multiple bios flashbacks. Underclocked my system, Set power limits, tried a different monitor. Hopefully someone figures out the magic fix because I will not be buying another gpu just to have this issue happen 6 months later.

Im experiencing the same error. Microsoft or Nvidia won't say anything about that? It's obvious has something going on. A lot of posts saying just the same.

Yup just happened to me again with XMP disabled.
