Dear members,

I am writing in search for your expertise and help. For several months, if not a year, I have this wonderful blue screen crash on my computer with the following error : VIDEO TDR FAIlURE nvlddmkm.sys
Researching this error led me to a bunch of fixes that I've tried but didn't work. I will list them below but first here is my config:
Processor: Intel Core i5-6600K CPU @ 3.50GHz
RAM: 8GB DDR4
Motherboard: Z170s Pro4s
Graphic Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070
Disk: 2TB HDD and 125 GB SSD
(if you need more info, ask me I will provide)

Now here are some of the fixes I tried but didn't work:
- reinstalled windows 10 and the computer to factory settings
- reinstalled graphic card drivers cleanly using safe mode
- changed my SSD in 2023 because it was half working
- changed my screen
- undervolted my GPU using MSI afterburner
- windows startup repair, runned SFC and DISM

That it why I'm looking for your expertise. I am far from an expert in PC and I haven't found a solution yet.
Also, the PC mostly crashes when i start playing a game or a video but when i restart I very often get no signal on my screen. I often have to hard restart the PC multipe times before the motherboard logo starts to show up. It looks like the HDMI is unplugged for some reason and I believe its linked with this error.
I think the problem must be hardware but I do not know how to identify which composent is the issue in order to replace it.

I would greaty appreciate your hep and to all of you, merry christmas!
