ERROR_GRAPHICS_ALLOCATION_CONTENT_LOST
ERROR_GRAPHICS_ALLOCATION_CONTENT_LOST (0xC0262116) means the allocation still exists as an object, but its previous content is no longer available. Content loss can follow eviction, reset, or a display-driver recovery path.
What to check
- Repopulate the resource from a retained CPU-side copy, source asset, or regeneration path.
- Do not assume render targets, dynamic textures, or other volatile allocations retain contents after reset or eviction.
- If content loss accompanies repeated resets, investigate the earlier TDR or display-driver event rather than only rebuilding the asset.
