When I leave my laptop untouched for a while it goes to sleep mode, but now windows just crashes. When I try to boot it it does not respond and after some time the fans just start blowing on full speed. I just press the power button for 5 seconds to shut it down and then re-boot it. I tried doing the system diagnostic scan like (msdt.exe -id DeviceDiagnostic) and (sfc /scannow) and then restarted my laptop,
but nothing seems to be working.
I read a post about a similar issue, it was advised to update the BIOS, but I am unable to do so because the MyAsus app has updated and now it does not log me in, cannot recognize my laptop and thus does not give me any update options, the only thing it is good at is showing advertisements. I manually updated it again, registered my product and now it says "Sorry, we haven't provided ASUS Premium Care yet at the moment".

That Memory.dmp file also indicates the AMD graphics card device driver, though I did note, the date stamp on that file is form the start of September.

2021-11-29T16:00:56+00:00 I tried find any other minidump files but did not succeed, also from your last report (the atikmpag.sys) the file is nowhere to be found in the drivers folder, it is inside a folder on desktop in which I have a few old driver update installers.
should I just delete it restart the computer and see if that solves the issue?

That diver is for your AMD video card and is located in C:\Windows\System32 and you should not delete that file from there.

2021-11-29T16:09:21+00:00 No, I checked it multiple times, the driver is at this location
C:\Users\animi\Desktop\help\Help,minecraft\driver update\Chipset_DCH_AMD_APU_Win10_64_V2620110166002\Packages\Drivers\Display\WT6A_INF\B344967
it is inside the B344967 file with multiple other drivers.
Should I just delete all of them?
