VIDEO_DXGKRNL_FATAL_ERROR

DirectX graphics kernel fatal error

VIDEO_DXGKRNL_FATAL_ERROR is bug check code 0x00000113. The built-in table identifies it as VIDEO_DXGKRNL_FATAL_ERROR; the useful diagnostic question is what Windows component raised the stop and which invariant failed.

This is a graphics-kernel bug check, usually in the path shared by dxgkrnl, the GPU scheduler, the display miniport driver, and the video memory manager. It is more specific than a generic driver crash but broader than a single TDR timeout.

How to read the parameters

  • The arguments are build- and subcode-sensitive, so use the debugger output and symbols rather than hard-coding one interpretation.
  • The failing stack often shows whether the issue is scheduling, memory management, present, reset, or miniport interaction.
  • Related codes include VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE and VIDEO_SCHEDULER_INTERNAL_ERROR.

What to check in the dump

  • Check !analyze -v, loaded display modules, miniport driver timestamps, and GPU scheduler state.
  • Correlate with Event Viewer display resets, WHEA PCIe records, and recent driver or firmware updates.
  • For repros, capture whether the crash happens during present, mode change, sleep/resume, GPU reset, or heavy compute/render load.
