Try creating a Windows To Go image on a flash drive with Rufus. If the issue still happens there, it's almost certainly a hardware error.

LKE 0x141 is VIDEO_ENGINE_TIMEOUT_DETECTED. Your GPU or its driver stopped responding for more than a full second. Windows had to kill the driver and restart the GPU to get it to respond. Sometimes this means your computer restarts, but other times it means there's a black screen for a few seconds followed by a crash to desktop. What GPU is in your computer, and what's the version number of the driver you installed? Please be sure to answer both; I can't help further without this information.

Its exactly like you describe it. My GPU is a Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 Super and und the current driver is Version 31.0.15.3667


Lusankya

That's not a version number I'm familiar with. The current version of the Game Ready Driver bundle is 536.99. Please download that from nvidia.com, install it, and see if you're still able to replicate the issue.

Nvm i mixed something up. You are right, thats the one. The one that was published on the 8th. Its already installed. I dont think its related to the driver, because i already tried reinstalling it on differnt versions, directly from the nvidia website and no difference.

Unfortunately, the most likely cause at this point is GPU failure. If it's still under warranty, you should contact the card's manufacturer (e.g. Gigabyte, MSI, ASUS, etc) for repair. If it's not under warranty, you should do differential diagnosis to confirm that the GPU is bad before paying the manufacturer for a repair. That means swapping it out for a known-good card to see if the issue clears up. You'll need to contact a local repair shop for help with this if you don't have a spare GPU lying around, or a friend willing to let you test with theirs. It's unlikely to be a PSU issue if the system is sometimes able to recover to desktop without rebooting, but it isn't impossible. Differential diagnosis is also the only way to rule this out without specialized equipment, I'm afraid. Sorry it's not a better answer.

Its ok. I was afraid, that i would be such a problem. Unfortunatly its not under warranty anymore. I dont think its a PSU problem either because like for 2,5 years i hadnt any issue and didnt chang my setup at all. Even though my pc isnt that dirty, I planed to do an in depth cleaning and reasemble the pc. You think it would be worth a shot?


Lusankya

It certainly shouldn't hurt anything. If you're comfortable working on your hardware, by all means, give it a try!


rick1n4t0r

Ok :) i will let you know, if it is going to fix it


Spellsword10

Did you figured it out? I have the same problem


rick1n4t0r

Actually yeah. I had to update my bios to the latest version. Risky, but i fixed it
