    I have 2 Windows 10 OSes set up on my laptop: one is 22H2 and the other is 1607 LTSB. 22H2 has come installed out-of-the-box but since it's consuming my poor 8GB RAM severely and has too much bloatware, I've installed 1607 LTSB and as I expected, LTSB one is efficient compared to 22H2 on both background tasks and RAM consumption. Since BeamNG is heavy on CPU and RAM, I thought maybe better OS background resource management help the game run better. But I saw that when I try to start the game on 1607 LTSB, game window appears but before any "Loading UI" badge is seen, game crashes and says "GPU is not responding."

    When I boot up 22H2, game works flawlessly. I've installed the same NVIDIA driver on 22H2 as on 1607 LTSB (456.71 and 472.12) but 22H2 runs the game well without any problems just as before, but no matter which driver I installed, 1607 LTSB gives this error. Also another thing to consider, when I boot the game with Intel UHD 630, it starts without any problems even on 1607 LTSB! I tried using Vulkan mode while using NVIDIA on LTSB, this time it gives 0x00000001 error and again crashes.

    So my guess is it is not totally related with NVIDIA driver itself (since every driver I tried on 22H2 runs the game with no problems) and also last thing to tell, every other game I'm playing works flawlessly on 1607 LTSB.

    So here I am, a hopeless guy who has read probably all this "GPU is not responding" threads on this forum. As far as I can see, most people who is victim of this error message has this issue after they play the game at least for a while and then they get this error. In my situation, I'm experiencing this even before the game starts. Just the window appears and then suddenly crash. I hope I have given all the info I have, if anything is absent, please ask here and I'll answer the moment I read your question.

    My specs:
    Asus FX503VD (laptop itself)
    Intel i5 7300HQ
    NVIDIA GTX 1050 4GB
    8 GB RAM
    1TB HDD

    ====SOLVED====
    I installed NVIDIA driver which is served on Asus official website for this laptop. The name of the zip and size of the driver package was significantly bigger than all the other drivers I've downloaded and tried from NVIDIA's website. NVIDIA website versions' names were consisting of the version number and supported OSes whereas Asus' website driver (original one) was named as something "VGA_NVIDIA_CFL_KBL_W10_64_V...". And kaboom! Problem is solved by itself. My theory is the original driver from Asus' website includes some other stuff which I don't know exactly (a module called "3D Vision service" was additional in that original driver compared to other NVIDIA's website driver packages) and that was probably the culprit.

    I hope any other Beamer can utilize this experience of mine. Have a nice Beaming!
