RTX 3070 – nvlddmkm driver crash / LiveKernelEvent 141

experiencing repeatable GPU crashes while playing Zero Company.

System specifications:

  • gpu: Geforce rtx 3070
  • cpu: Ryzen 7 7700
  • os: windows 10
  • nvidia driver: 616.56
  • ram: 32gb

While playing the screen randomly (often an hour or so in) suddenly goes black and my monitor displays "No Signal". my pc remains powered on, but audio becomes glitchy or disappears. Occasionally the audio briefly returns, but there is no video output and the pc does not recover.

After restarting Windows Event Viewer reports:

"Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered."

Windows Reliability Monitor also reports:

LiveKernelEvent – Code 141

Troubleshooting already attempted:

  • Updated NVIDIA GPU drivers
  • Performed a clean NVIDIA driver installation using DDU in Safe Mode
  • Tested after the clean driver installation, stayed stable for ~2 hours but now not that stable again.

anyone know if theres a fix? or is this just in the hands of ea and i just gotta sit around :p

  • I don't know if this is the same problem as yours or not because my event viewer is NOT giving me any errors, but I also have a 3070 and I am also experiencing the EXACT same problem.

     

    I did a deep dive with ChatGPT (reluctantly) and after a bit it told me to try turning off DLSS and using native. Performance is pretty awful in the third person sections now, but it's fine in the actual tactical combat and I haven't had this problem since switching. Fingers crossed it keeps working for me and that it works for you too.
