This guide will show you how to fix all Polaris DXGI-related errors that you are currently experiencing when playing Tekken 8. Some of the well-know error that you may encounter are:
- DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG
- DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
- DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_RESET
- DXGI_ERROR_DRIVER_INTERNAL_ERROR
- DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL
- DX12Device Removed Error ! reason: %x (%s)
How to Fix Polaris DXGI Issues
Go to Regedit and find: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers
Create a new 32bit DWORD value named TdrLevel and set its value to 0. Afterward, restart your computer. Enjoy the benefits.
What’s TdrLevel?
TdrLevel is short for Timeout Detection and Recovery Level. It’s a feature in Windows that identifies issues with a graphics card’s response and resolves them by resetting the card. If the operating system doesn’t receive a timely response from the graphics card (usually within 2 seconds), it triggers a reset to ensure system stability.
Before TdrLevel, such problems could lead to system freezes, requiring a full reboot. When Tdr is active and you encounter the “Display driver stopped responding and has recovered” message, it means Windows has reset the display driver.
What’s causing the game issue and this error?
The game is triggering a false communication problem between the graphics card (GFX) and Windows. This miscommunication leads Windows to believe the GFX has been unresponsive for more than 2 seconds, even if the game is running smoothly. Setting TdrLevel to zero disables this function, eliminating this mistaken error and allowing you to play Tekken 8 without crashes.
TdrLevel
Specifies the initial level of recovery.
Copy
- KeyPath: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers
- KeyValue: TdrLevel
- ValueType: REG_DWORD
- ValueData: TdrLevelXxx (see the following table)
- Where TdrLevelXxx can be one of the following values:
Value Meaning
- TdrLevelOff (0) Detection disabled
- TdrLevelBugcheck (1) Bug check on detected timeout; for example, no recovery.
- TdrLevelRecoverVGA (2) Recover to VGA (not implemented).
- TdrLevelRecover (3) Recover on timeout (default value).
TdrDelay
This is about setting the amount of time the GPU can wait before responding to a request from the scheduler. TdrDelay is like a timeout limit for the graphics card.
Copy
- KeyPath: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers
- KeyValue: TdrDelay
- ValueType: REG_DWORD
- ValueData: Number of seconds to delay. The default value is 2 seconds.
TdrDdiDelay
This is about how long the operating system permits threads to stay in the driver. If they exceed this time, the OS checks the computer for errors using the code VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE (0x116).
Copy
- KeyPath: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers
- KeyValue: TdrDdiDelay
- ValueType: REG_DWORD
- ValueData: Number of seconds to leave the driver. The default value is 5 seconds.
