So this is the first time i've come across this happening, I can't seem to find a solution that works though, i've not tried with other games, but while trying to play some overwatch today, it was constantly doing this after a couple of minutes.. i've looked in the event viewer and it said each time this happened that the wmd.exe has crashed and it tried to restart it over and over, but it kept failing.
I tried a fresh install just now, installed all drivers etc hoping to Thank that this would fix whatever was corrupted or whatever, but this is still happening.. does anyone have any experience with this and how to fix it? is it a graphics card issue? if so, what's the best way to figure out if it IS the graphics card of if it's some other kind of hardware issue.
Nothing had changed prior to anything else i'd done up til today, no updates etc.. just all of a sudden this has become an issue.
EDIT: After some research the wdm.exe (windows desktop manager) crashing and trying to re-open and just failing every time, is due to either corrupt drivers (which wasn't the case for me because I did a fresh install, uninstalled in safe-mode and reinstalled etc).. OR the GPU is going to absolute shit, which.. considering i've got a 2080ti, was kind of scary.. Thankfully it's still in warranty so they will either fix it, or replace it for me. I've had to swap it out with my 980ti and i've yet to have any issues like what I did with my 2080ti.. It's super weird that it happened suddenly one day, there weren't any weird updates, nothing like that.. just out of the blue, it screwed up.
