SAVER_GRAPHICS: recorded condition

SAVER_GRAPHICS has value 0x0000F008 and identifies graphics-path diagnostic capture. For SAVER_GRAPHICS, the SAVER family is used as a diagnostic classification; public parameter semantics are not available for this value, so the producer, dump type, and accompanying event payload define how it must be read.

Evidence that matters for SAVER_GRAPHICS

Preserve adapter identity, driver version, present history, VidPN state, GPU scheduler events, and display-engine telemetry. Correlate the capture with a mode set, present timeout, device removal, memory pressure, or compositor stall.

  • For SAVER_GRAPHICS, record the exact Windows build, process or package identity, module versions, capture timestamp, and component that requested the report.
  • For SAVER_GRAPHICS, determine whether the artifact is a live kernel dump, application dump, WER report, test-harness result, or a true system bug check before choosing debugger commands.
  • For SAVER_GRAPHICS, follow the stack and provider-specific fields back to the operation that stopped progressing; the symbolic bucket is a routing clue rather than a root-cause verdict.

What distinguishes SAVER_GRAPHICS

Use WDDM and display-driver evidence; the bucket name alone does not select a faulty GPU component. For SAVER_GRAPHICS, compare neighboring SAVER values only after the evidence above identifies the same producer and lifecycle stage; similar-looking names can describe different capture triggers.

Recovery after evidence collection for SAVER_GRAPHICS

Preserve the original dump and logs before restarting the affected process or machine. For SAVER_GRAPHICS, A restart may restore service, but durable recovery requires correcting the component, dependency, resource limit, firmware, or application state demonstrated by the captured evidence.
