Hi @Lohiya_H,
Thank you for sharing the details.
Error Code 43 indicates that Windows has stopped the NVIDIA graphics device because it has reported a problem.
Since updating and reinstalling the driver may resolve this issue, please try the following steps:
Reinstall the graphics driver:
- Open Device Manager and expand Display adapters.
- Right-click NVIDIA RTX 5050 and select Uninstall device.
- If available, select Delete the driver software for this device.
- Restart your laptop.
Install the HP graphics driver:
- Visit https://support.hp.com/drivers
- Enter your product ID: C28DWPA#ACJ.
- Download and install the recommended graphics driver for your model.
- Restart the laptop.
Check for Windows updates:
Go to Settings > Windows Update.
Check for available updates and install them.
Let me know if this helps.
Best regards,
