Lowering sound options in game had no effect.
Formatting and reinstalling windows had no effect.
It’s not your hardware. It’s this game. I have this problem too but ONLY with GW2. I play lots of other games for extended periods of time and none of them do this. Don’t waste your time doing hardware tests. This isn’t a new problem either. I’ve never seen any official acknowledgement of it or advice so it’s pretty depressing. I can only play for about 5 minutes before it happens and I have to reboot.

I also am experiencing this problem. I have to do a hard reset every time.
I updated all my drivers and the problem persists so while it may be driver related, it’s not because they are out of date.
It seems totally random but I had it happen constantly while trying to get through the quest “A Light in the Darkness.” That quest is absolutely miserable and having to do it 8 times from the beginning due to lack of checkpoints is all the worse.
