gtx1050 GPU stopped due to reported problems.

So, a little while ago I was playing Fortnite with a friend, who had recently got it for the Switch, and I noticed right away that instead of a good 60fps or more I was only at 12-30 fps in the lobby or in game. I was in a call via Discord and assumed that to be my problem, but soon learned otherwise. Long story short I find that my GTX 1050 was giving me an error in the Device Manager--See attached photos--and didn't want to much of anything. I'm kinda but not exactly sure if it might be caused to a hard shutdown I had to do a little while before this happened where I was playing Fornite, and it seemed to crash, give me a black screen with some colors or a small window of the game. After that though, there wasn't any apparent issues until I booted my notebook back up later the next day to play.

I was wondering if anybody here might be able to give some better insight on what might have gone wrong as it was just fine a few days ago. I've tried uninstalling the device and reinstalling it, updating drivers, removing drivers through DDU and reinstalling again. A couple time while uninstalling it does seem to be fine before it updates again to say it's been stopped. So i'm hoping it hasn't kicked the bucket just yet.

I'm running a Notebook (Samsung Odyssey)

Win 10 Home

Intel HD Graphics 630 / NVIDIA GTX 1050

Contact your manufacturer's support. That's a hardware fault.

re-install/update drivers first, see if error goes away...else faulting gfx

Usually the error 43 means corrupted BIOS in the GPU itself and flashing it yourself when you don't know what you're doing is not advised so better just rma it

RMA

do you still have a warranty on it?

It's a lot of other things - bad GPU core power, no PCI allocation, etc.

 

But you're close, I guess.
