Display driver amdkmdag stopped responding and has successfully recovered.

Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is William. I'm a Microsoft Windows Certified Professional and Systems Administrator. I'll be happy to help you out today.

There is a lot of chatter about this, but to say it is a Windows issue is speculation. Since It is happening on two different GPUs, the issue is likely with the game engine. There is a suggestion here to reduce screen refresh settings to 60Mhz: https://support.activision.com/community/s/ques...

There is also a more extensive thread on reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CODWarzone/comments/fg...

And this article mentions that there is a fix in Windows 10 2004 release so it may be worth moving to 2004 if you are not there already: https://www.onetwogamer.com/call-of-duty-warzon....

Only issue I have with this is, I play Valorant, Fortnite, Sea of Thieves, and this happens to me as well with ALL those programs. It even shuts down my Streamlabs while I'm in the middle of streaming.

Thanks for this fix suggestion. Going to test it out for a week and post again with the results.

It's interesting that both your 2 gpu's and my 2 gpu's were all RX...though the OP said he tried nvidia gpu's as well and still had the problem.

Edit: Changing my refresh rate from 144Hz to 120Hz fixed the issue. I don't know why, but I'm happy :)

Hi Gregg, just want to let you know I have a 5600 XT and have been having the same problem. I see LiveKernelEvent 117 and 141, then LiveKernelEvent 144 in logs for the reboot after the crash. I tried DDU, and even reinstalled Windows a few days ago, but the issue persists.

Built the system in May, and had a crash here and there, but the crashes went from less than one a week to daily around the end of September or beginning of October. This coincided with a Windows, AMD, and GPU VBIOS update (via MSI Dragon Center).

These updates caused image artefacts, followed by a crash to desktop. Usually a full system crash happended shortly after, or I had to force a reset since the system was frozen. Flashing the 2020-03-09 VBIOS on this page seems to stop the image flickering/corruption but I still get occasional crash.

My system also reports unexpected shutdown almost everyday despite the fact I shutdown using the Start menu as you should...

What's interesting is that they seem to almost exclusively happen in PUBG and Borderlands 3. I don't think I've had a single crash in the Witcher 3 or Stardew Valley.

Hey there!

I'm in a brand new notebook Acer Nitro 5 w/ ryzen 5, vega 8 and geforce GTX 1650. Played few games for now (DOTA2, Divinity OS2), but I had the trouble while in Teams too, sharing a presentation. Last Thursday started at 10AM, crashed 10h54, finished 12. Back again 2PM, crashed twice (2h30 and 3h32) finished 4.

Checking in Event Viewer, it was a Security event ID 4624 (logon), ID 4672 (special logon), THEN System event ID 4101 (video driver amdkmdag stopped responding and successfully recovered [roughly translated from Brazilian Portuguese]) followed by ID 267 (touch keybord/hardware quality control successfull verification), twice ID 10016 (unauthorized application to COM server with CLSID, Application event ID 9027 (desktop window manager), ID 1000 (error on C:\Program Files\AMD\CNext\CNext\Radeonsoftware.exe; *full log at the end).

The most annoying detail is that after video and apps recovery, I'm disconnected from Team's call.
