I am experiencing a persistent issue on my HP OMEN laptop (Model: OMEN 15-ek1xxx, Serial Number: [insert serial number here]) related to the NVIDIA GPU.
Despite a clean install of Windows, latest BIOS and driver updates, and full software diagnostics, the system continues to show the following symptoms:
Repeated Event ID 153 errors linked to nvlddmkm.sys (GPU reset / TDR error)
Crashes or resets under GPU load (gaming, stress tests)
Behavior persists across Safe Mode and clean OS
Adjusting TdrDelay, undervolting, and underclocking did not help
System passes memory tests and shows no overheating issues
The issue occurs in both Windows and Linux environments
Based on this, I suspect a possible hardware issue—potentially related to the GPU or motherboard VRM. I’ve also run HP UEFI diagnostics and monitored GPU power delivery.
Please advise on the next steps. If necessary, I am ready to proceed with service or an RMA request. Kindly let me know if you need any additional logs or hardware diagnostics.
