(it makes my pc crash when i play hq games like GTA V or Teardown), the text says "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38) The driver was not loaded because an older version of the driver still exists in memory.".Can you help me with that, guys?

    Could you provide a bit more information regarding the freezing? Are you doing anything in particular that triggers the freeze, gaming, browsing files on your drive, etc? Does the system eventually recover/unfreeze, or do you need to restart the computer.

    After all the BSODs it would be a good idea to check the integrity of and repair system files. From an admin Command Prompt run:

    Dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    and

    sfc /scannow

    Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files - Microsoft Support

    You could try clean booting the computer to see if third party software is triggering the freeze. Pay special attention to where it says to Hide all Microsoft services.
