I get one of several errors within about 30 seconds to 3 minutes of starting any application that uses the GTX 1070 in my system. Usually I get a VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGER error; sometimes I get a DPC_WATCHDOG_ERROR; and just today I got a new one, a VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE.
After the failure and reboot, the Device Manager will show an exclamation mark and the message, "Windows has stopped this device because it reported problems. I can sometimes reboot and the exclamation mark will go away but the system will crash again when I use the discrete GTX 1070 card.
Several times in the last few weeks, I have used the Device Manager to remove the graphics card device from my system, manually delete all the remaining files and folders from my drive, reboot and allow Windows to re-detect the graphics card, then update the drivers again, all to no avail. I have done this numerous times in the last few weeks.
I've gone as far as to wipe my C: drive and reinstall Windows twice within the last two weeks, but my computer continues to crash within moments of starting any intensive 3D application that tries to use the discrete 3D card.
I have photos of the error codes but I do not know how to embed them in messages, sorry.
