[PC] 0x887A0006 DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG & Instant Crash to Desktop

Temporary Fix (For Myself & Hopefully Others)

For those that are still getting the error:

0x887A0006 DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG

or

Instant crashing to desktop 

The best way to fix this is to uninstall you current Nvidia drivers, which should be version (418.81) and the roll back your drivers to a previous version (15 January drivers, 417.71)

I personally use DDU (Display Driver Uninstall) to fully remove all traces of a display driver and once restarted then install Nvidia driver version 417.71. DDU can be found below, feel free to read up on it if you wish as great bit of software.

Drivers are still listed on the official Nvidia site and can be found here:

I done this and managed to play Apex Legends all night (6 hours plus) without a single crash or error appearing. Previously I was crashing with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG every 30 minutes or so.

This is only a temporary fix until the new Nvidia drivers are out and correct.

After speaking to a chap from Nvidia he mentioned that they have managed to replicate the error we are having and are working on a fix asap.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

@Glacious I have tried this with no success, as someone in another thread suggested it. Just a head's up.

[Glacious]

No worries man, I'll make a small edit to it.

I know it seems to have worked for quite a few people.

Cheers for the reply.

9900K
2080TI
32GB DDR 4133MHz

Max in game settings.
Full screen.

Same error.

Driver 418.81    Rolling back made no difference.

Game is unplayable.  Within a few minutes, every time, it crashes with that specific error, or no error at all.

I tried repairing the game and that made no difference.

I keep getting this damn error, I have no idea what's causing it.

All platforms are having the same issue.. one common denominator. Apex Legends

I'm running a 2080ti and i9, me and a friend with the same GPU had the same issue. We managed to fix by rolling back the drivers to 417.35 -  released 12/12/2018 (not the most recent ones) and using MSI Afterburning to downlock the core and mem speed by ~400, not really sure which fixed it but is running fine now. Might be worth trying if you're in the same boat with a 20 series.

Getting the same error - the first time it happened when pressing too many keys at once and I was able to replicate by doing the same.

The 3rd time it happened I wasn't pressing any more than 3 keys at once. I then went through a period of expierencing this every game for 4 in a row.

Switch to controller and was able to play 5 games without crashing and then it happened on the 6th.

2080 Ti, i7-8700k, 16gb RAM, default graphics settings, full screen mode, running AW3418DW monitor and a second dual screen that just has Discord open.
