Getting the "DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED" (0x887A0006) crash while playing Nioh 3? Here are 5 proven methods to fix your GPU stability and stop the crashes.
In this video: The DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED usually means your graphics card stopped responding to the game. This can be caused by unstable overclocks, outdated drivers, or Windows timeout settings. I will walk you through the TDR Delay registry fix, driver updates, and underclocking to get Nioh 3 running smoothly.
Fixes Covered:
Registry Edit (TdrLevel): Increasing the GPU timeout detection.
Clean Driver Install (DDU): Removing corrupted display drivers.
Underclocking (MSI Afterburner): Stabilizing factory-overclocked cards.
Game Settings: Lowering specific graphics options (Shadows/Volumetrics).
DirectX Update: Ensuring DX12 is running correctly.
