It is possible that the driver is corrupted. You can try reinstalling it. Sometimes, rolling back to the previous version of the driver can work. This is an option worth trying. If this doesn't work, you might need to use DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) tool to uninstall the driver completely and reinstall the driver again.

    Hello, I am Mite, an independent advisor and a user like you, and I am here to offer help.

    According to the information in the dump file, the failing module is nvrtxvad64v.sys. It's a part of the graphics card driver. You can try updating the graphics card driver first and see whether it can solve the problem.
