ERROR_GRAPHICS_ALLOCATION_INVALID

ERROR_GRAPHICS_ALLOCATION_INVALID (0xC0262106) means the allocation was no longer valid for the requested graphics operation. It can occur after resource destruction, device reset, stale handle reuse, or an invalid resource-state transition.

What to check

  • Recreate the resource from the current device rather than reusing a handle from an earlier device or adapter state.
  • Validate lifetime and state transitions in the application or driver before submitting work that references the allocation.
  • Check whether a preceding adapter reset or TDR invalidated the resource set.
