5How to Fix Display Driver Stopped Responding and Has Recovered Windows 11/10
Windows 10 users have reported a strange message saying driver stopped responding and has recovered and today we’re going to explore and see how to fix this little problem.
Driver stopped responding and has recovered is an annoying error message that will cause your screen to go black and crash your display driver.
Sometimes, a Windows computer may become incredibly sluggish during use, followed by the computer’s screen going off and then turning back on again, at which point an error message stating that the “Display driver stopped responding and has recovered” can be seen in the Notification Area in the bottom-right corner of the screen. This happens when a feature known as Timeout Detection and Recovery (TDR) determines that the GPU has not responded within the allotted period of time and restarts the display drivers in order to save the user the trouble of restarting the computer entirely.

If you happen to see the “Display driver stopped responding and has recovered” error message once in a blue moon, there is no cause for alarm. However, if you start seeing the “Display driver stopped responding and has recovered” error message pretty often, there might be a pretty serious underlying issue.
