Chrome, Edge & Firefox, all crash and the OS becomes unresponsive, I can't recover it unless I shutdown.

Anyone else seeing this?

Update:

A temporary solution is to use recommended display resolution or change to MS basic display driver.

Update:

I added build 25290 to the tiltle because even though the blog calls it fixed, some users are still experiencing this bug.

    Yes I remember that, but I was referring to different brands and/or versions of drivers.

    I guess I was wrong then or maybe I'm confused as usual. 🤣

    Back on this thread. I checked many different combinations on a PC that has both Intel and Nvidia.

    With a single display and the Intel driver, I tried to go back to an older driver from 2021 and it was still failing the same when using non recommended Resolution.

    The Nvidia driver fails in a similar way but not as easily as the Intel.

    Both fail when using a resolution different from the one recommended by Windows.

    So I was right then.

    It doesn't matter which driver is used, they all failed with non-recommended resolutions

    except the wireless one.

    Or my old MSI GT70, that does not fail with any resolution either. 🤣

    These 2 on the old MSI don't fail with any resolution, they are way older adapters and drivers.
