Well, good news for Dolphin, bad news for me. Even DOOM gives me the exact same BSOD when switching to Vulkan. It's clearly something with the drivers and Windows 7.
Is there anyone on Nvidia and Windows 7 who is able to use Vulkan without fault? I've seen a few different kinds of BSODs: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, an attempt to write to read only memory was made, IRQL errors etc. All from the same trigger of going to fullscreen under Vulkan.
Update:
Solved the blue screen. The cause was from not using Aero and having no DWM compositor active.
However this now returns me to my old woes that were never resolved where after ending the Vulkan renderer, the entire system freezes up and only the mouse position updates requiring a system reset at the case.
All it takes is one person with Nvidia and Windows 7 to confirm this is an isolated situation and it should work. Please, if anyone has the time and hardware please test this for me. I am losing my mind trying to figure this one out.
