    Why do I get a "DXGI ERROR DEVICE REMOVED" error when trying to start a game?

    Hello BETTYYOUNG3, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

    I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble when trying to play games on your PC. Let’s try to sort this out.

    However, before that, I want to ask the following questions:

    Are you using Windows 10 or Windows 11?
    When this started to happen?
    What procedures you tried to fix this inconvenience prior to your post creation?

    Meanwhile, check if your system and the drivers are up-to-date.

    You can check for Windows updates via PC Settings > Update & Security > Windows update > click on “get updates”

    You can check for driver updates by visiting the manufacturer’s website.

    Hello Baikhan, My name is Khaji I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today.
    The DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG error is a common error that usually occurs during gaming, especially if it is a graphically demanding game. This error occurs when the application sends incorrect instructions, resulting in a DXGI error. There are several ways to solve this error. One solution is to update the graphics driver. Another solution is to update DirectX. You can also modify the NVIDIA control panel. Some users have reported that disabling or removing the sound card helped them fix the error. Another solution is to stop overclocking the CPU.

    Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.

    Starfield preload keeps failing to download

    I had actually pre-installed the game last week, but when I checked today it was trying to do an update and was getting the same error. When I clicked on cancel update it actually completely removed the game from my PC and removed it from my library. Now I get the same error trying to re-pre-install.
