Now, I'm not much of a tech guy, but all that I can tell is that I've been having some GPU issues for the past month, and I really don't know what causes it. I load up a game and sometimes it works for 30 minutes or even less, then the whole PC freezes on one frame, on both of my monitors it freeze at the exact moment. Weird thing is that the sound keeps coming normally and when I turn of my main monitor and turn it back on it temporarily fixes the problem. As far as I can tell from the data, everything looks stable, the photo is from the moment of the freeze. When I try to turn it off using the power button, it just doesn't work or with a huge delay. I tried to:
- do a DDU to get back to 26.9.2 (Because I encountered this problem after the release of 26.10.1)
- underclock it by 10%
- undervolt it by 40, 50, 60, 65, and 70 mV
- close programs running in the background (such as Medal, Discord, browser etc.)
- disable the wifi driver (Someone reported that this fixed their problem)
And none of them worked from this.

I bought this PC brand new this summer and I haven't had any problems with it up until now. First I thought that it only appeared in one game (Overwatch) and I was suspicious of it, but then quickly realized that I was wrong and it still froze in other games, such as Life Is Strange and Heroes of Hammerwatch 2.

Anyone had the same issue or is it just me? And if you have any tips, please help!

My specs:
CPU: R7 7800x3D
GPU: RX 9060 XT
RAM: 32Gigs of 6000MHz ddr5
PSU: 850W Gold
Motherboard: B850M-E Wifi

Hi!

I've been dealing with this issue for quite a while, I assume it's AMD Adrenaline's issue, but still wanted to check... Adrenaline does not show CPU temps, usage etc. unless I do a DDU and a fresh Adrenaline installation. It then works for a few days only to have the same issue again.
Is there a way to solve this?

TYVM.

Hi there,

I’m experiencing a reproducible issue with newer adrenaline drivers on my RX 9070 XT and I am at the end of my wisdom.

It all began after the launch of 26.9.2, I immediately installed it since I wanted to play the Wither 3 Remastered and enabled FSR in-game because I am running a 4k monitor, and shortly after the game just crashed, a driver timeout. I tested again and again, always the same result. At first I thought the game was broken and needed a patch, however after testing a few other games, it looked like the drivers seemed to be bad.

After severe testing I found out that FSR is the culprit, the crash only occurs when FSR is enabled, both native in-game FSR, no matter if 3 or 4, and driver-side FSR and the GPU is under high load. Tested games are War Dogs, Darktide, The Witcher 3 Remastered, Enlisted, and several other FSR-supported titles. Using TAA or XeSS instead of FSR results in no crashes, even at full GPU utilization.

In Event Viewer I only see informational LiveKernelEvent entries (not listed as Error or Warning) with codes such as

• 141

• 193

• 1b8

• a1000001

These appear around the time of the crashes and are consistent with GPU engine timeouts / TDR recovery.

I’m currently staying on 26.9.1, as it is fully stable, which makes me believe there are no physical hardware/GPU issues.

I also tested 26.10.1, 26.10.2 and now 26.11.1 but the issue persists. I went through all kinds of troubleshooting steps, including multiple clean installs with DDU in Safe Mode (all options enabled) and AMD Cleanup Utility, manual deletion of remaining AMD folders in Safe Mode, clearing DirectX Shader Cache, disabling Game Mode + Xbox Game Bar, disabling all overlays, and testing HAGS on/off. The only thing missing at this point is a complete reinstall of Windows.

Here are my specs:

• GPU: Asus AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

• CPU: Ryzen 7 9800X3D

• Motherboard: TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS WIFI with latest BIOS

• OS: Windows 11 (latest)

• Monitor: 4K, FreeSync enabled

What is left to do or try? Is there anyone with the same issue as me? I couldn't find any reports online that someone faces the same problems. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thoughts on enabling or disabling amd anti lag in the software?

Hello! This is a new build and my first time powering up. Havent set the OS and all. Then I noticed the middle GPU fan behaves differently from the other two. It repeatedly twitches — moves slightly, stops, then attempts to spin again.

Im starting to lose my mind.
Sometimes motion fluid frames starts working sometimes it doesnt, Yesterday i was playing Rob Run with AFMF turned of the game left my PC overnight woke up today run the game suddenly its not working again, It used to work great before but even rolling back or DDU seems to have issues now.
I was able to run it with borderless mode +HDR enabled and now nothing works not even full screen with hdr disabled.
i tried to enable/disable MPO hoping this might fix it but nothing. Im slowly running out of ideas how to make it work.
Currently im on the 26.11.1 and in each game i get the not compatible display mode

Hi everyone,

I've been dealing with a very frustrating PC issue since around 2024, and I'm hoping someone might have an idea what is causing it.

My PC specifications:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600

• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT 16GB

• Motherboard: Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX V2

• RAM: 32GB DDR5

• Storage: NVMe SSD

• OS: Windows 11 Pro

The problem:

Whenever I turn on my PC after it has been shut down for approximately 3+ hours, it often starts extremely slowly and stutters badly.

It's not just games. The entire system is affected:

• Mouse cursor movement is choppy.

• Opening folders and the Start menu is slow.

• Windows animations stutter.

• Even the initial Gigabyte motherboard logo takes noticeably longer to load.

• Games can drop from around 180 FPS to approximately 20 FPS.

Sometimes restarting Windows fixes the problem, sometimes it doesn't.

Interestingly, CPU, GPU, RAM and disk usage are generally below 50%, so nothing appears to be fully utilized.

What I've already tried:

• Updated motherboard BIOS.

• Disabled EXPO.

• Disabled all unnecessary startup applications.

• Tried multiple AMD GPU driver versions.

• Used the basic Windows display driver.

• Reinstalled/reverted AMD graphics drivers.

• Checked Task Manager for CPU, GPU, RAM and disk usage.

• Tried resetting the graphics driver using Win + Ctrl + Shift + B.

The issue has persisted across different AMD driver versions since 2024.

LatencyMon results:

I recently started investigating DPC latency.

During one test, while experiencing stuttering, LatencyMon reported:

• Highest interrupt-to-process latency: 134,619 µs

• Highest DPC execution time: 99,787 µs

• Highest ISR execution time: 43,146 µs

The highest DPC was attributed to:
amdkmdag.sys – AMD Radeon Kernel Mode Driver.

Other drivers showing high execution times included:

• storport.sys

• ndis.sys

• Wdf01000.sys

• HDAudBus.sys

However, during another test when the PC was running smoothly, LatencyMon showed much lower values. A subsequent test showed another AMD DPC spike of approximately 8,281 µs.

I'm not sure whether these spikes are the cause or just a symptom.

What I'm wondering:

1. Could this be a motherboard or chipset issue?

2. Could CPU power management or core parking be responsible?

3. Could the NVMe SSD or its controller cause system-wide stuttering?

4. Is there a way to identify what is happening during the first few minutes after a cold boot?

5. Has anyone experienced something similar with a Ryzen 7000 system?

I'm really trying to identify the actual cause rather than randomly replacing components or reinstalling Windows.

Any suggestions or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Was in a game last night drivers deleted themself. Tried to download them but kept getting an Error 195. I cannot install Adrenalin Edition either due to Error 207. Anyone know whats happening?

Edit: 9070XT, not 9060XT,

As in the post i'm crossposting from, how do i update the iGPU on a system that also has an AMD dGPU?

Hey guys, I built my PC last night and I’m running into trouble right off the bat. Despite making sure that every component is secure and having the USB stick placed in the correct USB slot, my hardware seems to get stuck.

Here’s a sequential list of the steps I’ve taken up to this point:

1. Inserted all of the USB into the correct ports.

2. Turned on the PC for the first time and got stuck in a q-code 99 loop.

3. Turned off PC, disconnected power cable and all usb except for wired mouse and keyboard.

4. Reconnected power supply and hit the power switch—stuck in a d7 loop instead of a q-code 99.

5. Hit the clear CMOS button, and PC shuts down.

6. Hit power switch again only to be greeted by yet another d7 loop.

7. Turned off PC, turned off and on power supply.

8. Reconnected wired mouse and keyboard only.

9. Turned on PC again and met with the q-code 99 loop again.

What I observed is that the USB isn’t an issue. Neither is the RAM as the sticks were glowing and the clips felt secure. I’ve read somewhere that over-tightening the fan cooler can make it difficult for the CPU to launch into BIOS, though I am inclined to be skeptical. Any suggestions for troubleshooting?

как настроить и чем лучше всего пк? я тестил пк в стилномад и набрал 7300-7400. с легким разгоном за 7600 набирал. в фурмарк 16200 и выше и это все в хотспоте не больше 85 гпу и 68 по цпу. в том же сталкер 2 в ультрах 4к и фср4 в нативе 75+ кадров. но есть догадки что можно веселее. пс, карта андервольтнута чучуть но паверлимит не повышал а наоборот сделал -9%. а то если долго задротить в тяжелые игры на старых адреналинах были вылеты таймаута драйвера. ща прошло вроде бы. и как проверить и чем лучше всего систему на майнеры и трояны?

Description of Original Problem: crashing during normal gameplay freezing or black screen causing drivers to crash, sometimes it used to reboot by itself. Mostly happened while playing cs2 or wardogs, but on rare occasion happened on desktop

Troubleshooting: Ive tried removing XMP and RBAR as i turned it on around the time the crashes started happening but its been going on for at least a month so its hard to remember atp. I replaced my PSU and repasted my GPU with no effect. Updated my BIOS from F79a to current. Tried with a different SSD with a new installation of windows as well. If anyone needs ill provide event logs but ive only noticed bitlocker and IOMMU errors.

Background Applications: DISCORD, CHROME

Description of Original Problem: I am having this issue with my computer when it randomly shuts down while gaming

So basically the screen goes black, and the fans are still spinning. The motherboard's debug LED cycle through CPU,DRAM,VGA and boot eventually stopping at VGA. The PC then shuts down itself and after that I can turn it back on like nothing happened. It is specifically with Bf1 and Bf6, no other games created issues like this, and I have played Rdr2, Cyberpunk 2077, Ready or Not on the same PC without any issues. And the crash can happen 10 minutes or 20 minutes up to an hours or so, and it is random.

Troubleshooting: I've checked Event Viewer which shows Kernel-Power 41 after the crashes

Deleted and installed the GPU drivers through DDU

Swapped PSU, issue persisted

Removed and reseated the GPU previously

The GPU is connected through separate cables,

If I've missed information that might be useful, please mention it and I will add it, in case I've forgotten something

Any suggested would be appreciated, Thanks!

Operating System & Version: Windows 11]

GPU Drivers: AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition ,current version. I also tested 26.10.2.

Chipset Drivers: AMD B650

Background Applications: apps usually open while gaming

Description of Original Problem: Both monitors lose signal while I’m gaming. When the picture comes back, I’m on the desktop, and the game and the other apps I had open have closed. It’s happened in several games, even while sitting in the Fortnite lobby. I’ve only seen it happen when a game is running.

LiveKernelEvent 141 is the error that keeps showing up after these crashes. I checked my Windows "WATCHDOG" dump files and found the same "0x141r I’ve also seen code "117", but "141" is the one I keep getting, even after updating the driver and replacing the power supply.

Troubleshooting: I replaced my ARESGAME AGV 750W with a Corsair, updated the BIOS to 4004, and tested with EXPO disabled. I tried several AMD driver versions and left Adrenalin at its default settings. The same crash also happens with just one monitor connected.

I ran the OCCT VRAM and 3D tests for 15 minutes each without errors or a black screen. I stopped the OCCT Power test manually after about 10 minutes, and it hadn’t reported any errors either. I don’t have another PC to test the card in.

Has anyone with an RX 7600 seen this same pattern — repeated "141" errors pointing to "amdkmdag.sys", with the game closing when the picture comes back? Did a clean Windows install fix it for you? If so, how long has it been since your last "141"? If something else fixed it, I’d like to hear what worked.

RX 7600 pierde señal en los dos monitores. Windows marca LiveKernelEvent 141

Qué tal, tengo una XFX SWFT RX 7600 con un Ryzen 5 7600. Solo me pasa cuando tengo un juego abierto. Los dos monitores se quedan sin señal y se cierran tanto el juego como las demás aplicaciones que tenía abiertas. me ha pasado hasta dejando el juego en el lobby, sin entrar a una partida. Cuando reviso el historial de confiabilidad de Windows, me aparece LiveKernelEvent 141.

Ya cambié la fuente de poder por una Corsair, actualicé la BIOS y AMD Adrenalin, y probé con los ajustes predeterminados de Adrenalin. También corrí la prueba Power de OCCT unos 10 minutos. La detuve yo y en ese rato no marcó errores.

No tengo otra PC donde probar la gráfica. ¿A alguien con una RX 7600 le pasó lo mismo? ¿Se les quitó al reinstalar Windows desde cero o qué les funcionó?

I know not to blame GPU blindly, but honestly, I am not that tech-savvy to perform any more detailed checks.
Anyway - Cyberpunk 2077, RDR 2, Witcher 3 Remastered. SW Zero Company - everything is unplayable. I play for 5-10 minutes and then the game crashes to desktop. No particular error, no consistent in-game behavior. Sometimes I get a restart, but mostly it's CTD.

I've tried tweaking Adrenaline settings, in-game settings, disabling overlay(s), I think I've tried even something that should help with timeout, I think it was some registry edit, I don't even remember after all I've done.
I've uninstalled the drivers through DDU and got the new ones fresh, I even tried to revert to older version, nothing worked, at least not that I could see a change in the behavior.

Any ideas, helps, tools, please?

Got a prebuilt from Microcenter in January and have had no issues, but within the last few days, my GPU is randomly disabling itself in the middle of gaming or just now watching something. I have my monitor through the display port GPU slot, and have up to date drivers. Not sure whether I should try to revert back to the last GPU driver. I have ICUE downloaded for my Corsair keyboard and mouse but I've seen some people say they have had issues with that interfering, so maybe it's that

AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

Sapphire Pulse 9070 XT

Hi everyone,

I'm sharing a troubleshooting case involving my AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT. After several hours of testing, I managed to restore normal Windows shutdown behavior by reverting to my previous graphics driver.

Hopefully, this helps someone experiencing the same issue.

My PC configuration

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X

• Motherboard: Gigabyte X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING

• BIOS: F65 (October 2025)

• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

• OS: Windows 11 (currently 26H2)

• Graphics driver before the issue: 32.0.22042.14002

What happened

On November 13, 2026, Windows Update automatically installed:

AMD Display Driver 32.0.31044.16

Within minutes of the update, my PC started experiencing serious power-management problems.

• Selecting Shut down caused the computer to restart instead.

• Sleep and Hibernate also caused unexpected restarts.

• The screen turned black, but the fans kept spinning before the Gigabyte boot logo appeared again.

• Windows startup became noticeably slower.

I later manually upgraded Windows to 26H2, hoping it would fix the issue. However, the problem had already started before that upgrade and persisted afterward.

Errors recorded by Windows

Windows Reliability Monitor and diagnostic dumps showed:

• LiveKernelEvent 193 – VIDEO_DXGKRNL_LIVEDUMP

• LiveKernelEvent 124 – multiple WHEA-related machine-check errors

• Kernel-Power Event ID 41

• Unexpected shutdown events

The earliest WATCHDOG dump was recorded at approximately 04:15 on November 13, shortly after the driver update.

These errors do not independently prove a GPU hardware fault.

Troubleshooting performed

I tried the following:

1. Disabled Windows Fast Startup and hibernation – no improvement.

2. Disabled Wake on LAN and checked BIOS power settings – no improvement.

3. Booted Windows in Safe Mode – shutdown worked correctly.

4. Performed a clean boot – the issue persisted.

5. Tested basic video boot settings – the issue persisted.

6. Disabled the Radeon RX 9070 XT in Device Manager – shutdown worked correctly, and Windows startup became much faster.

7. Used AMD Cleanup Utility to remove the existing graphics drivers.

8. Tried AMD Adrenalin 26.10.1 with the Driver Only installation option – an unexpected restart occurred during installation, and the shutdown problem persisted.

The solution that worked

I decided to restore the exact driver version that had worked reliably before the issue:

AMD Display Driver 32.0.22042.14002 (April 30, 2026)

I downloaded it from the Microsoft Update Catalog:

https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=32.0.22042.14002

The correct package explicitly supported my RX 9070 XT.

My hardware ID was:

PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_7550&SUBSYS_88111EAE&REV_C0

I extracted the CAB archive using 7-Zip, preserving its folder structure, and installed the driver using:

Device Manager → Display adapters → Microsoft Basic Display Adapter → Update driver → Browse my computer for drivers

I selected the extracted folder and included subfolders.

Windows successfully installed driver 32.0.22042.14002, without the AMD Adrenalin application.

Result

After restoring the older driver:

• Windows recognized my RX 9070 XT correctly.

• The driver version was confirmed as 32.0.22042.14002.

• The PC finally shut down normally again.

I have confirmed the shutdown fix. Longer-term stability, Sleep and Hibernate still need additional verification.

Conclusion

On my system, this strongly suggests a driver regression or compatibility issue associated with the newer AMD graphics drivers.

This does not establish that driver 32.0.31044.16 is defective for everyone, and the WHEA errors mean that hardware stability cannot be completely ruled out.

However, reverting to the previously stable Windows Update driver resolved my shutdown issue.

I hope this case helps other RX 9070 XT owners experiencing similar symptoms.

If anyone has encountered this with driver 32.0.31044.16, I'd be interested to hear about your experience.

AMD 9070XT card

I have been having issues getting a GPU crash dump triggered crash over the last week trying to play BodyCam. I played with some settings a few days ago and got the game to run for maybe an hour. Today I get on, game won’t run for >5 min before crashing now. What settings should I run to help the game run? At this point I am totally willing to run lower graphics performance for the sake of the game being playable. Thanks

Troubleshooting: trying different settings, really just lower settings in general. This is my first PC, not super PC savvy so I don’t know really what to change specifically

Hi everyone! I’ve been experiencing random PC crashes for the past few months, even though my PC used to run perfectly fine. I’ve tried almost everything and I’m running out of ideas.

PC Specs:
CPU: Ryzen 7 5700X3D
GPU: Radeon RX 7700 XT
Motherboard: Gigabyte A520M K V2
RAM: 32GB DDR4
PSU: 1000W
BIOS: FFc (August 18, 2026)
OS: Windows 11

The Problem:
While gaming (especially Marvel Rivals), both monitors suddenly go black, my PC fans ramp up extremely loudly, and the system becomes unresponsive. I have to hold the power button to shut it down.
The weird part is that it seems to happen ONLY when both monitors are turned on. When my second monitor is off, I haven’t experienced crashes. This started a few months ago, and everything worked fine before.

Errors Found:
WHEA-Logger Event ID 18: Processor Core, Machine Check Exception, Cache Hierarchy Error, APIC ID 13
MCABank: 5, MciStat: 0xbea0000000000108
Desktop Window Manager (dwm.exe) crashes: BEX64, ism.dll, exception c0000409
Previous DWM crash: c0000374
Kernel-Power 41 and EventLog 6008 (unexpected shutdowns)

Troubleshooting I’ve Done:
Updated AMD GPU drivers and AMD chipset drivers.
Reset CMOS using motherboard pins and loaded BIOS Optimized Defaults.
Checked BIOS version (FFc, appears current).
Disabled XMP (RAM running around 2667 MHz).
Disabled PBO; CPU clocks and voltages remain on Auto.
Checked CPU temperatures (43–54°C, max recorded around 60°C during light use).
Cleaned my PC.
Checked Event Viewer and Reliability Monitor.
Tried disabling gaming overlays and unnecessary background utilities.
Investigated PSU wattage (1000W should be sufficient).
Looked into DISM and SFC Windows repair scans, but haven’t confirmed the results.
And clean gpu driver using DDU/AMD
