Any solutions known? I've looked and nothing has worked so far but they are old posts. This has been a problem for years now and the muppets at microsoft have done **** to fix it.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Just had my bi-daily bsod reboot earlier today as well. No input from Microsoft yet either.
I'm seeing similar timeframes for my updates as well. These don't seem to respect the windows update schedules, so unfortunately that doesn't seem to help.
A couple more common points to check: do you all have the Xbox app installed/setup? If so do you have any alternative controller drivers installed? (steam/ds4windows/etc)
Can't remember if this was posted previously by me or someone else.
My settings for how and when my windows updates are not holding. It all started around the same time that I noticed that regardless
of me setting updates to check with me first before downloading the update and again to ask me if I want to do a restart once the update has been installed.
I found that regardless of the setting I put in place if there were any kind of windows update, it would disregard the settings, download and install the update and automatically do a reboot. Thus I had no idea that an update was already dl'ng and installing til it was too late (not that I could stop it anyway)
I've also tried the stop update settings and they don't work either. If I was ever able to stop the gameinput **** at some point shortly after it would still update and reset the gameinput **** thus causing another crash. These types of crashes were random, not game or video related. It's even done a crash while idle overnight.
I haven't been able to pin it down either, other than it frequently happens whenever another windows update occurs. I've even had it occur while the machine was asleep.
Interesting. I just fired up Encoder and queued up a 4k video encode, with some other heavy use programs running in the background, to see if I could replicate. Encoded for me without issue, so no dice there.
Seems to be really hard to pin down what causes the "reconfiguration" as I note that I never have the crash when the computer is sitting idle, even with multiple programmes / games open.
Come on MVP's - prove us wrong, help us fix this!
Thanks guys, interesting that there's an Intel in there too. Again, the only common denominator seems to be Gameinput.
Over to you MVP's and Microsoft...
