I've been experiencing an issue where windows freezes and hangs for a few seconds after 5-7 hours of use. Restarting the computer temporarily resolves the issue, as if restarting the 5-7 hour counter, which made me believe it was some kind of software related problem. After investigating, I used PoolMon and identified a significant Paged Pool memory leak caused by dxgmms2.sys, which appears to be linked to a GPU driver issue. I took these screenshots after about 6 hours of use. This issue began a few months ago, so I'm considering reverting to a late 2024 driver from before the problem started. Before I proceed, I'd like to see what you think.
What might be causing this dxgmms2.sys memory leak, and what steps would you recommend?
