pikkaachu added a comment to T58946: DX11 error : buffer Map failed : DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED.

The root of the cause is the ARMA 3 engine.

Not the graphics cards, rogerx.

I have set every graphics setting to either low/off and moved back to 332.21 and my crashes have stopped.

Still getting this crash on the following cards:

GTX 580
GTX 680
GTX 980
GTX 260
GTX 470

Have tried voltage/clean install, lots of drivers and other issues.

However Microsoft claims that its very easy to have your application recover from the issue:

DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG: The graphics driver stopped responding because of an invalid combination of graphics commands sent by the app. If you get this error repeatedly, it is a likely indication that your app caused the device to hang and needs to be debugged.

DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED: The graphics device has been physically removed, turned off, or a driver upgrade has occurred. This happens occasionally and is normal; your app or game should recreate device resources as described in this topic.

Is there any reason why BIS cannot quickly call the 3-4 libraries/commands to have the game recreate on the fly so that we dont crash and instead just get a FPS blip?

Uploaded my crash docs from the GTX 580 is it seems "most stable"
