Why Does My PC Crash When I Restart My GPU Driver?

Asked By TechWhiz22 On

I'm experiencing a frustrating problem where my computer consistently crashes to a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) shortly after I quit a game and use the keyboard shortcut WIN + CTRL + SHIFT + B to restart my GPU driver. This issue has seemingly started after some recent updates. Before this, my system would freeze completely and remain unresponsive until I had to force shut it down by cutting power. I also encountered a severe crash while adjusting settings in the game 'Control' from Epic Games Store, but that was a one-time incident. Besides these issues, everything else on my system seems stable. Has anyone faced a similar problem?

Maybe this isn’t the best shortcut for you if it's causing crashes. Have you tried stopping using WIN + CTRL + SHIFT + B after you quit a game? It’s probably worth taking a break from it. Regularly forcing a GPU reset in that manner is definitely not common for most users—especially if it's causing crashes.

Yeah, I stopped doing that a couple months ago. But is that normal to crash like that?
