Yesterday I installed a new graphics card driver and today I encountered the error: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION whilst playing max payne 3, the game froze for a little while before this occurred. The only other software change i have made is to install Xbox one controller software for the PC. Does anyone know anything about this and should I go back to my old driver? thanks for any help.

Nvidia geforce 980 (standard model)

I7 4790k

windows 8.1

16gb ram
