I tried booting from an USB, but to no avail. The system locked right after POSTing, so I couldn't choose boot device, removing windows boot drive and changing boot order to boot from external device first yield the same result. HOWEVER, that tip with disabling IOMMU seems to work. After disabling that and enabling SVM, it managed to finally boot correctly and virtualization worked. And then I got BSOD after an hour while setting up virtual guests, but it only happen once, and I blame a dying HDD. I'm confident now, that it will work properly now. Thank you, metaleggman

Hi, I've been experiencing some weird behaviour of my system whenever I enable virtualization support (SVM Mode as it's called in BIOS of ASUS TUF X570-PLUS). It's really simple to reproduce, turn off the computer, enter the bios settings, set SVM to Enabled, save & exit. After that it POSTs without any problem (sometimes double POSTs, idk if it's related, happens sometimes even with SVM disabled) and then completely freezes before the OS boot sequence, I'm not even able to get back into the BIOS to disable it again because it freezes right away, after showing motherboard logo with that "Press <DEL> to enter setup" thing at the bottom. After resetting the BIOS configuration it works fine, but without the virtualization support I really need. I did some troubleshooting myself: changing boot drive replacing system memory replacing PSU (this was not part of the troubleshooting, but more of consequence of other changes in the system) replacing GPU (it has little little to nothing to do with this, i know) updating BIOS several times (current installed version is 3405, released about a week ago) reinstalling the OS several times when the HW configuration changed searching if someone had similar issue (all I found was that someone claimed that "Virtualization support on those motherboards is just broken", cannot find source right now, might add later) The configuration right now is: Motherboard: ASUS TUF X570-PLUS (BIOS Version 3405) CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X RAM: 4x8GB G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3200MHz CL16 PSU: Corsair RM 750W Bootdrive: ADATA XPG GAMMIX S5 256GB with some recent build of Windows 10 64bit IMHO it boils down to two possible causes (three if you combine them) Motherboard is faulty CPU is faulty Combination of both above So the question is WHY does it behave like this and what might be the solution? All parts are still in warranty. Thanks a lot.

I might have an ancient nVidia GeForce 9800GT laying somewhere around, but it does not support DX11 and my drivers do not crash, games does.

Hi, for past two weeks some games (Bioshock 2 Remastered and PUBG, so far) on my PC decided to start crashing randomly (by randomly I mean crash between 30s after start to several hours withou single crash). No error message, error log or anything, simply "...has stopped working". Only thing I found was in windows logs and it said that error occured either in game executable or in d3d11.dll with exception 0xc0000005. I did some research, but nothing worked (so far, I'll list things I did below). AFAIK only DirextX games are crashing, OpenGL and Vulkan both seems to work correctly, so it shouldn't be the GPU. As of DirectX, not sure yet, but so far only DX11 crashed. I tryed a dx9 stresstest and gave up after two hours (no crash), the rest (dx 10 and 12) not yet tested, but let assume they work. Already tryed: Reboot computer. Reinstal GPU drivers Run SFC and DISM Run full malware scan Disable any possible overlay (Steam, Afterburner, that windows 10 something) Hardware: GB GA-B150M-D3H Intel i5-6500 Kingston HyperX Fury Black 8GB DDR4 2133MHz CL14 ASUS Dual RX-480 OC 4GB 128GB 2,5' SATA SSD, 120GB M.2 SSD, 3x 500GB HDD Seasonic SS-400ET-F3, 400W, 80+ Bronze Software: Windows 10, 1709 (16299.192) Radeon Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 (same problem with previous drivers) Example error: Faulting application name: Bioshock2HD.exe, version: 1.0.0.1, time stamp: 0x590a9b4a Faulting module name: d3d11.dll, version: 10.0.16299.98, time stamp: 0xd5c15d64 Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x001af2a7 Faulting process id: 0x7ec Faulting application start time: 0x01d38cab5779c561 Faulting application path: D:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\BioShock 2 Remastered\Build\Final\Bioshock2HD.exe Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\d3d11.dll Report Id: 6c01812f-d77f-47b4-b1c4-5b2538efcc3c Any ideas?
