Basically as summary, ever since I updated my OS to Windows 10 my Graphics driver (Intel HD 4000) crashes and restarts, either freezing the game (CTRL+ALT+DEL, then task manager used to exit, never hard crashed) or game exits with "Graphics driver stopped responding and recovered".
I never had any freezing issues before the windows 10 update, and from what I have read people seem to be saying it is a driver issue, I have tried reverting back to and old driver and still no avail.
Start game
open any mission (single player, multi player, showcase etc)
run about, shoot or fart in the wrong direction
freeze or crash after 10 minutes.
CPU is not over heating etc, also no overclock
Hello,
thank you for your report and files.Your problem is that DirectX crashes. This may be from various reasons, such as outdated DirectX, outdated drivers, overclocked CPU or GPU [by manufacturer or user] and many more.
Sadly, there is nothing that can be done from our side. I linked this problem to bug number #0000579, where you can read useful tips in comments. Also, please check out the forums page for another useful tips:
