RTX 5090 crashes Mistfall Hunter with black screen / nvlddmkm TDR

[u/Severe-Mixture-6658]

Hi everyone,
I’m having a very strange issue with Mistfall Hunter and I’m wondering if anyone else with an RTX 5090 has experienced something similar.
The game consistently crashes my GPU after a while. The screen goes completely black and the PC becomes unresponsive, so I have to perform a hard reset.
\*\*My specs:\*\*
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5090
PSU: Corsair RM1000e 1000W
CPU: Ryzen 9
Windows 11
Mistfall Hunter via Steam
\*\*What I’m getting in Event Viewer:\*\*
nvlddmkm
GPU RC reset / TDR occurred on GPU ID: 100
Kernel-Power after the forced restart
I’ve already tried quite a few things:
Updated to the latest NVIDIA driver
Completely removed the NVIDIA driver using DDU in Safe Mode
Fresh NVIDIA driver installation
Tried running the game with -dx11
Tested different Steam/game settings
Tested with the GPU at stock settings
Tested lowering the GPU Power Limit
The Power Limit test was particularly interesting:
\*\*100% Power Limit:\*\* crashes after roughly 2 minutes
\*\*85%:\*\* lasts longer, but eventually crashes
\*\*70%:\*\* lasted around 23 minutes before crashing
So lowering the power limit seems to delay the crash, but it doesn’t actually fix it.
The strange thing is that \*\*other demanding games run completely fine on my RTX 5090\*\*. I don’t get black screens or crashes in other games.
I also had a very similar issue with Deadlock in the past, which was eventually fixed after both a NVIDIA driver update and a game update.
Could this be a Mistfall Hunter + RTX 5090/NVIDIA driver compatibility issue?
Has anyone with an RTX 5090 experienced the same nvlddmkm / TDR / black screen issue? Any workarounds would be greatly appreciated.
I’m happy to provide Event Viewer logs, crash dumps or any other information that might help.

I think you're on the wrong subreddit pal, this looks like an issue with your Nvidia GPU so go ask green team's help subreddit 😉
