i have been running fine for years, then all of a sudden, i cant get the game to stay open for more than 2-3 minutes. system: 7950x, rtx 4090, 64gb ram, win 11 pro in the system event viewer, it shows: Credential Guard is configured to run, but is not licensed. Credential Guard was not started. and the fatal error Faulting application name: dwm.exe, version: 10.0.22621.2506, time stamp: 0xdef1fe51 Faulting module name: dwmcore.dll, version: 10.0.22621.2506, time stamp: 0x2cc115d3 Exception code: 0x8898008d Fault offset: 0x000000000011b5bd Faulting process id: 0x0x7BB4 Faulting application start time: 0x0x1DA0DCC5216AFC1 Faulting application path: C:\Windows\system32\dwm.exe Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\dwmcore.dll Report Id: 0e4f0fe4-f143-4b37-9718-d60f650766f2 Faulting package full name: thats a gpu hardware error.... but the cards themselves are fine, and work flawlessly in everything else (games, windows, etc) but i do not have credential guard installed or running (have verified with ms in the registry). this ONLY gets triggered if i open 3dx. i am going out on a limb and thinking it may have something to do with nvidia drivers. i have 2 nvidia machines to test on (one mentioned above, and a different i7 system with a 4080) and it does the exact same on both. however, i have a different system with the exact same config as the above, but a 7900 xtx - and its running fine there. please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
