DirectX GPU hung / removed - simple fix ( after 2 months lol )

almost pull my hair out !!!!

i don't know what happened but like 3 months ago everything was going fine with bf 2042 . after my GPU keep on hanging with a message error Device was removed, i was able to play one in every 5 to 8 tries to launch. did a full memory check of GPU and my system, ran a bench on my gpu, wasn't that .

I've tried many Nvidia driver and did follow trips on you tube and internet. 

So what i do every time prior to launch the game is, i go to Documents / battlefield 2042  / CACHE and i delete the files,

But EVEN if you go to Nvidia control panel and disable that cache option, it seams that the cache rebuilt its self no matter.

 i ve work so hard for that.

well it seams to work for me

driver 511.79

    After 2 months or reading and you tube, I have tried like 20 Nvidia drivers, I found that if I disable the cache in the control panel, AND go in documents / battlefield 2042 / cache , and prior to starting the game , I delete EVERY TIME THE CACHE,  I have no more errors. Instead of my GPU go read the cache, this is where my GPU hung, if I let it compress the shaders and my GPU is not idle, it takes like 40 seconds to enter the game but It won't crash.

    for a reason that i cant explain or not sure of, is i think that when my GPU do not recompile the shaders, my GPU  hamg.

    When i start the game it take like 30 seconds to go in game, but as long as my GPU  recompile, its like busy and don't crash.  this is weird...

    It means everytime you load a new map that you have not played yet it needs to rebuild the cache, have you tried other driver versions? @BBQ_grill2
