Just about every d3d9 program I could find (except the most stupid of samples) crashes if I disable my 950M from device manager.
Normal d3d9, nor vkcube or basemarkgpu seems to be affected by this behaviour.
Yes I have also verified the dxvk dll isn't getting hijacked like in #1904

Software information

Just about everything, but the following log is from unigine sanctuary.

Intels Vulkan driver on Windows is notoriously bad. DXVK works fine on Intel GPUs on Linux.

Ddoitsujin maintainer 2021-02-08 github

I mean you could always try running these demos with Vulkan validation layers enabled to see if we're hitting some weird edge case on Intel's Windows driver (also, for the love of god, please post log files as requested by the issue template, why does nobody do that anymore?), but we have no plans to support it, especially since it's known to cause nothing but issues for just about any popular Vulkan project out there.

Mmirh 2021-02-08 github

Because I think this problem is unrelated and preceding any actual operation with the vulkan driver itself (I understand every windows driver but perhaps nvidia's is bugged AF, but crashing immediately sounds something else)
Indeed, I have been fiddling with vkconfig for the past 10 minutes, and even if I enable every validation area the log isn't any longer than the normal one by dxvk.

Unigine_d3d9_intel.log
Unigine_d3d9_nvidia.log

Though I guess I was also misdiagnosing the problem too, now that I tried to force the intel gpu from the nvidia control panel.

Ddoitsujin maintainer 2021-02-08 github

To be clear, validation layer output would not be inside the DXVK logs, but rather in stdout (i.e. console output), or a separate file if you instruct the layer to dump it somewhere (should also be doable with vkconfig).

But at least the log tells us that there's nothing obviously failing.

Mmirh 2021-02-08 github

Yes, the logs I have attached are dxvk's.
I'm just saying the ones from the vulkan configurator don't contain any additional information besides that.

Ddoitsujin maintainer 2021-02-08 github

Nothing for us to fix here then.

Mmirh 2021-02-08 github

I very much suspect you are missing some d3d9 entry point..

EDIT: I would have tried on W7 just to check, but as you may be aware the vulkan driver there hasn't been updated since early 2017

KK0bin maintainer 2021-02-08 github

If some part of the Intel driver stack or any other Windows component calls undocumented D3D9 apis, that's not our problem.

Windows -> closed source -> it's your choice. Happy using :)
