I've been having issues with rendering since a couple of days my laptop turns off rather frequently with the message "Device ran into a problem and needs to restart". I think it commes from overheating since it happens after longer periods of viewport rendering or a couple of frames into rendering a sequence to disk.

I'm working in a simple lookdev scene with one asset which up until now was working perfectly fine. I also tried updating the GPU drivers but i didnt help.

Does anyone have a similar issue or an idea how to fix it? I had a windows update around the time the problem started appearing, could this possibly cause an issue like that?


I'm using an HP Omen Gaming laptop with a Nvidia RTX 5080 and an AMD ryzen AI 9 HX 375 with Houdini 21.0.512. I've had crashes from both Karam XPU and CPU.

unload the windows latest update (20160114) can fix it, Microsoft's full responsibility!
