ERROR_GRAPHICS_OPM_INTERNAL_ERROR
Locate the failing graphics boundary: graphics opm internal error
ERROR_GRAPHICS_OPM_INTERNAL_ERROR, value 0xC026250B, is produced by opm when the OPM layer failed internally before it could complete the protected-output transaction. The investigation should stay attached to OPM runtime or protocol processing and to the exact generation in which it was obtained.
Evidence that makes the result actionable
| Capture item | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Object identity | OPM runtime or protocol processing |
| Rejected condition | the OPM layer failed internally before it could complete the protected-output transaction |
| What to capture | IOPMVideoOutput identity, command GUID, sequence number, status flags and underlying HRESULT if available |
| Current graph state | OPM protected-output session, signed request and display-miniport response |
| Supporting trace | output certificate, OPM semantics, sequence number, command GUID, protection level and connector status |
A controlled comparison
- Recreate the OPM output and replay a minimal signed query on the same connector.
The comparison with ERROR_GRAPHICS_OPM_DRIVER_INTERNAL_ERROR is especially useful: ERROR_GRAPHICS_OPM_DRIVER_INTERNAL_ERROR locates the unexpected failure inside the display driver.
Correction and proof
Re-establish the OPM session and preserve the first internal failure for driver/platform escalation.
- debug-layer, ETW or driver diagnostics no longer report the rejected OPM runtime or protocol processing contract during the same scenario.
