    Event ID 41(63), black screen crash during gaming, bugcheckcode 278 or 307


    The crash usually happens when I play video games, a black screen then lead to no signal from the monitor, GPU fan is still spinning and I can hear audio, even talking to my friends through discord, after a while the computer would reboot.

    Looking at event viewer, the bugcheckcode would be 278, or Bug Check 0x116 VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE, I tried checking the minidump file with WinDbg and thought nvlddmkm.sys is at fault, so I enable user permissions to full control. It crashes again but the bugcheckcode would be changed to 307, or Bug Check 0x133: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION.

    Things that I have tried (and did not work):

    Using a DDU to uninstall the driver, then reinstall

    Rolling back to Nvidia driver version 566.36

    Swapping to another power supply, old and new both 650w.

    Set my BIOS to default settings, no overclocking is enabled

    Same thing here, bought and downloaded assassin creed black flag, during the download process it gave me an option to start playing the game but when I tried the game crashed and returned me to the home screen so I waited to the end of the download and tried
    playing the game and the same thing happened, crashes and returnering to the home screen.

    PC FREEZES AND CRASHES! KERNEL 41 (63) error displayed on event viewer. Please Help!

    Hello,

    Thanks for taking the time to share about the problem with The Division 2.

    Since you have mentioned that the issue only occurs when the game is running, it is likely that the issue is caused by the anti-cheat driver installed on the system. I recommend you to contact the game's developers for further assistance.

    Based on the information you have shared, we understand that you are playing The Division 2, and since your concern is posted in the wrong category (Windows 11/Gaming), we will be moving this thread to the correct category (Game issues), where moderators in the corresponding category will assist you further on your concern.



    Thanks for your patience and understanding.

    PC FREEZES AND CRASHES! KERNEL 41 (63) error displayed on event viewer. Please Help!

    Thanks so much Johann.

    I read about the anti-cheat driver causing crashes, and some articles also suggested to set the anti-cheat software's core utilization to a single core. I do that every time I run the game, but to no avail. The PC still crashes.

    Thanks for moving the post to the appropriate category. Looking forward to any guidance.

    Best,

    Kernel power event 41 (63), especially with Microsoft Flight Simulator

    Good morning, Airman! Thanks for the information here, I'll do my best to get it to whom can understand it better than I. 😉

    That said, it would be helpful if you could submit a bug report through Feedback Hub. You should be able to attach the generated file to the report you submit, which will help a lot as well.

    In the interim, would appreciate if you could give me additional information:

    1. Are you on the latest NVIDIA drivers?
    2. Are you overclocking anything at all, by any chance?
    3. Have you changed your NVIDIA settings to anything other than the default?
    4. Do any other intensive games (think high particle effects, lots of fancy graphics, stuff that makes your GPU run hot) trigger this?
    A lot of the research I've got on this problem indicates that the problem normally has to do with a power failure somewhere in the hardware, which we wouldn't be able to diagnose through here. Other points have mentioned that it could be related to faulty NVIDIA drivers in a recent update, which we might not be able to help with too much (naturally, we can't speak for NVIDIA).

    So let's get to ruling a few things out!
