Member, Alpha Two
For a few days now the game stops responding after about 10 minutes of play first not clickable in game, then there is no cursor movement until game and pc freezes. when it starts there is no ALT F4 / CTRL ESC / ALT TAB / even task manager wont run. on restart i get a blinking screen as if my GPU is sick. turn of and wait to have my pc back to normal.

First we need to find Gaminput services You will see that one is located in your C:\Program Files (x86)\microsoft(is where i found mine) folder, and the other is located in C:\Windows\System32 folder. With your explorer app of preference open both folders, find the executable (GameInputSvc.exe) and hover over it with your mouse. In a second a window will appear. Look at the creation date of the executable. I'm almost 100% certain that the one located in your Program Files (x86) is the the old one (creation date around beginning 2023)
Then search in your search bar installed apps system settings. You will see Microsoft Game Input listed there. The date is somewhere around Feb/March 2023, so this one is old.
Click uninstall !
Then you will see that the executable in the Program Files (x86) is removed. If there are leftovers just manually remove them (delete the complete Microsoft Gameinput folder - you will probably get a warning so you must delete this as administrator)
Restart your PC, search services and only 1 Gameinput will be listed there. If the service is not started, right click start, then right click properties set it from manuel to automatic start, and finally start the service.
I have a 3090, when I did this my gpu usage was no longer hitting 100% nor my CPU. I found this on a thread when looking possible crashes. Seems like this is the issue.
EDIT: AFTER A WHILE IT STILL HAPPNED NEVERMIND
