Just finish playing GTA 3 for about an hour, run gpu-z to check my temps and well this error shows up



RESTARTED my computer, everything is fine now. So i am not sure what was causing the issue.

it happens when you start one instance of gpuz, start another, close the first one and then try to start another.

underlying reason is that gpuz extracts its driver and starts it, when it quits it tells windows to stop and remove that driver, when the driver is in use windows will mark it as deleted. when you start another gpuz that driver still exists and cant be overwritten, yet it cant be used either because it is marked for deletion
