Based on my own experience it's easy peasy to use; even it's developer is constantly updating this amazing freeware-tool.

Ah, forgot something essential I've done for more than one year or so: After getting sick off of all this Windows 10 annoyances I threw this OP System to the junk and remedied many of its issues (like unwilling updates etc...) by installing Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Looking back I think this was one of the best "tweaks" I could have done. Best regards. Edited November 4, 20187 yr by KBUR English is NOT my mother tongue.
November 4, 20187 yr Hi, I also had this error for some time and nearly dropped P3d for that reason. I also had fears to edit my registry but what cured the problem for me was finally using this solution with editing the registry: Found this solution on the internet, works for me 100% with P3Dv4.3 on Win10 64bit, Nvidia GTX1080ti and latest drivers. The problem: a thing called TDR checker monitors the computer’s hardware, particularly the GPU. When the GPU stops responding with the computer for 2 seconds TDR checker restarts the driver. The TDR checker was good on paper but did not work in the real world as a GPU can stop responding when it is working hard.Here is the solution that worked for me, it requires an extra sub key entry into the Windows registry, so please only implement if you feel OK with editing your registry!- Exit all Windows based programs,- Click on the Windows Start button, type regedit in the Search box,double-click regedit.exe from the results above. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation,- Browse to and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers- On the Edit menu, click New, and select the QWORD (64-bit) value from the drop-down menu,- Type ‘TdrLevel’ as the Name and click Enter,- Double-click TdrLevel and set the value as 0 (it is set to that by default, but double check) and click OK,- Close the registry editor and restart your computer for the changes to take effect!I saw this fix mentioned earlier in this thread, but make sure you create a Qword (64bit) key for Windows 64 bit OS and NOT a Bword (32 bit) key because that wil not give the right result.If you encounter a DXGI hung/removed error again please make sure that this key still exists in your registry!It happened to me once that the key vanished after a Windows Update, resulting in the dreadful DXGI hung error once again. Give it a try. It worked for me and I never got that error again. Here is also a video showing what to do. It is the same procedure mentioned above: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FWAVe1km_g Cheers Dirk

November 4, 20187 yr Since I removed Nvidia Inspector, DDU'ed the driver and installed the latest one, I had 0 problems. Before that: tons. And btw. been upgrading drivers normally also without issues. No registry hacks, no card downclocking, no voodoo... I think any kind of external "manager" or FPS limiter messes up the sim.
