HP Pavilion 15-cx0xxx blue screen (BSoD)

[JariJST]

Hello,

I recently bought the HP Pavilion 15-cx0xxx for school and gaming and it was working fine. My laptop crashes when i'm using Adobe Photoshop 2020 version 21.2. My laptop has a Intel i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz 2.21 GHz and a GTX 1050.

My Game Ready drivers are updated to version 451.48. The blue screen (BSoD) appears with the stop code "VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE" and "nvlddmkm.sys". I already tried deleteing my Video card and then reinstalled it. This didn't work. I also completely reset my laptop to manufacturer settings. 

Is there anyone who can help me? I need my laptop for school projects and i tried everyting. Thanks in advance.
