Same for me.
Already did everything said in this topic... nothing work..
So your solution is to format and reinstall windows ?
Really ? ☹️ ☹️
There is no other game where I have this problem !!
I am having the same issue, it's random. 6 core Xeon 2.93ghz with 2x GTX280s 6GB Mem and Win7 Ult 64bit.
I thought the full text of the error may be helpful:
DirectX function "GetDeviceRemovedReason" failed with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("The application's device failed due to badly formed commands sent by the application. This is an design-time issue that should be investigated and fixed. "). GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280", Driver: 33182

Please try turning off Ambient Occlusion, as suggested by @lxgfusionfoe before (thanks!) over here:
Jeez, even the community manager is giving bad advice. The AO problem is only present on 500 series GPUs. As the poster above me said, if you're running an Nvidia card/chipset it may be Nvidia GeForce Experience, but it also may not be. Your most likely cause is your card being undervolted or overvolted, resulting in the card failing under strain, hence drivers crashing. Use the Unigine Heaven test and Afterburner/some equivalent to strain your GPU at 100% for ~30 minutes or so. If your drivers crash, it's a faulty card/voltage. From there, refer to your devices stock voltage and consider options.
If you burn up your card doing this due to incompetence, do not blame me. Be careful with this, this is safe to do *if* you know what you're doing.
