age3y.exe blocked from accessing graphics hardware

Post by gyneryder »

So this issues arose out of the blue. Had over 100 hours playing no issues. Now suddenly this occurs more games than not usually within a few minutes into a match.

Application is running compatibility with Windows XP SP3
Application is set to run as administrator
No recent driver changes for NVIDIA or Windows 10 updates

Usually a few minutes into online match, the game just freezes graphics. Sounds still persist, I can click and hear my guys acknowledge to move to new click location etc.

Game will crash out after a minute or two of this persistent frozen screen. There is always a warning notification on Cortana stating "application age3y.exe has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware"

This issue occurs regardless of if I load game from Steam or from the application on my CPU.

Anyone have any suggestions or have encountered this problem?
