Direct X Error "Battlefield 4 + Other Games. HAS DESTROYED MY GAMING

[silent_goat]

 

Direct X function "GetDeviceRemovedReason" failed with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("The device is hung which is typically caused by issues in the graphics driver or alternatively the application"). GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 To ", Driver: 34052

 

Hi guys this is the error. it doesnt matter how hard I research the fix to this problem either doesn't work or its just more people with Nvidia cards with the same problem. 
This error appears randomly after about an hour of gameplay particularly when playing Battlefield but also Bioshock Infinite and various other games.
This freezes the game, and the computer, and restarting the game results in the error displaying instantly.The only way to restart the game is to restart the whole machine, lose all your game data for that match and then have it happen again 30 minutes into the next match.
All my drivers for EVERYTHING are updated DAILY and after reupdating no change so please no "fuck off and install your drivers" or "its battlefield deal with the $140 pile of coded trash" comments. 

Please please help. It could be battlefield being the shoddiest and least well made game post 2000 but that doesnt explain why it happens with other, better made games. 
This has destroyed the point of my brand new $4500AUD build and I'm completely uninterested in using the machine if if a 900 dollar graphics card fails every 30 minutes without saving. 

Direct X has no website for support, neither does battlefield forums or this or any other forum have any real answers.

Thanks guys. halp. pls.

Fuck off and install your drivers.

(seriously... try older drivers tho)

Not sure, there may be an easy fix, but for now, contact your cards customer support.

 

 

 

Fuck off and install your drivers.

That works too

[Clyne]

try system restore to a point before the crash

Fuck off and install your drivers.

(seriously... try older drivers tho)

this would work too

Older drivers will fix your problem. If the one you try doesn't work, then try the one before that one.

Is your graphics card overclocked? Try running stock if it/they are.

Hey guys, unfortunately this problem started with the FIRST drivers for the card when I bought it.. so it has been a problem from day one but it has gradually worsened. I have removed the OC from the card, but this hasn't fixed it so I removed all overclocks all together and still no dice. Will try clocking the screen back to 60mhz  today and see , but the problem began before clocking so not sure. 
After running battlefield with all monitoring programs closed i'm sure its not Precision X or Afterburner monitoring that's causing the issue.

I have noticed in the Afterburner logs though that both my GPU Usage % and my power consumption seem to be jumping between 100% and 60% like every half second.. still newb so I don't know if this is normal. Basically the card is either maxing out or at just over half but seems unable to find a balance when gaming. 

I'm also thinking that an NVIDIA optimization may have worsened it, so I guess i'll try bringing down some of the stuff that isn't necessary (atm everything is on ULTRA.) 
Card temperatures are max 75 degrees (with an OC) and I have an open air chassis with good air flows and high rpm fans . 

So yeah is it worth tracking back through drivers even if the problem is still there? 
Cheers guys

Go into MSI Afterburner and uncheck the "Unlock voltage control" box in the Settings. I get the exact same problem with my GTX 970 and this solved it for me, but give it a try.
