So I have a weird problem.
PC was fine with rare crashes I was using an old USB TP-link wireless adapter that doesn’t support windows 10, and would sometimes D/C from the wireless network for no reason.
So I bought and installed a PCI-E “Ubit Wireless Network Card WIE4530”.
It started causing PC crashes so I returned it after reading some users saying the intel chipset is not compatible with AMD CPUS.
Then I bought the more expensive “Gigabyte GC-WB1733D-I” which has a newer intel chipset and read AMD users writing reviews that it works fine.
But it started causing the same type of crash that I never had before.
Heres the error message before the crash (freeze) happens in the event viewer:
-----------------
The description for Event ID 14 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
\Device\Video3
0c83(1780) 00000000 00000000
The message resource is present but the message was not found in the message table
------------------
Some things I noticed:
My computer specs:
MSI geforce gtx 770 graphics card.
Evga Supernova 750w G2 gold power supply
Asus PRIME B450-PLUS
AMD Ryzen 2700x
Vulcan T-Force 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4
Samsung Evo 850 SSD
+1 extra ssd, +1 hdd, +1 usb drive.
1 monitor, 1 screen/pen tablet.
Windows 10, 64 bit.
Any input HIGHLY appreciated, this thing is driving me crazy.

Some things I noticed:
- Crash/Freeze started happening frequently after installing and using PCI-E slot.
- Seems to be a Graphic card issue.
- Seemed to happen a lot in Firefox watching twitch/youtube disabling Hardware acceleration helped reduce crash due to web browser.
- It might be a power supply issue as now I’m using an extra PCI-E slot but wifi adapters are supposed to use very little power.
- I rolled back to NVidia drivers 1 year ago to test, and crash still happened (less often though)
- Crash happens when graphic card is stressed but didn’t crash once playing Apex Legends.
- Updated Motherboard BIOS and all drivers, including wifi drivers.
- Sometimes on event viewer I see a warning about wifi not finding “drivers” weird warning.
- Very rarely instead of crash I lose connection to USB devices (mouse, graphic tablet, wifi adapter).
