So I have this one problem. Every time I start a game, play for 20 sec, and the graphic driver crashes, don't know why, don't know how. Feel free to ask questions, I have attached some info. This happens on every game btw.

I have a laptop - Lenovo V130-15IKB Laptop, with a Radeon 530 for graphics (marginally faster than the integrated GPU so I prefer it)

Re-install your display drivers (Radeon and iGPU if applicable). If you can maybe try a previous version(s) from Lenovo's support site. 

 

Are you running any kind of Anti Virus? Is this a device managed by Work or School device?

Is it just me or is Grammar slowly becoming extinct on LTT?

I tried buth drivers, from and and lenovos site, same problem came up.

 

McAfee antivirus, but i do not see the correlation, and it is my personal computer, so not managed by work/school. Administrator account as well, if that matters at all.

Windows appears to be alerting you that the application is being blocked. Its also one of the earlier event viewer warnings suggests. Which suggests to me that there is a permission's issue somewhere. It could be just an effect of the driver crashing but also depends on the timeline and where that notification is coming from. If google doesn't a yield a direct fix, then you are dealing with eliminating as many possibilities. 

 

You can try running the .exe for the game(s) "as administrator" but this seems like its deeper than that. I would disable McAfee and Defender temporarily and test.

A month ago I got really deep into trying to fix it, and got to a point where the problem was at the pcie connection according to event viewer and device manager error id, tho yesterday was the first time it mentioned permissions, so it has either gotten better or worse, don't know.

 

I have tried with no antiviruses and run as administrator, still same issue.

Could be a level of instability then. In my experience Lenovo has endless iffy BIOS and firmware patches which get dumped out automatically. You could try a DISM health check and SFC scan. Failing that you may need a Windows restore, but that always sucks to do on suspicion. 

 

Does task manager show usage % of the dGPU when say just watching YouTube?

Ye it shows usage, both yt and the 20s of gameplay before crash, and the performance drop is noticeable when i disable the dedicated, so it does work, but vrashes, ill try the tests tmr, maybe windows reintall will fix?
