My problem is There is only one time this error crops up for me. It's when I'm on TikTok flipping through videos. PC locks up throws error messages at me. I updated a bunch of drivers, checked windows update, and a bunch of the guides here. Still get it when looking. I could just not look but I'm worried something else will kick off the hunt. Also maybe I'm doing the update drivers wrong. Because every driver I try to update for device manager tells me it's already up to date. Search your pc for the update, hit yes. "The best drivers are already installed" and the problem still remains. I only got uninstall or disable options left. So what do I do? I went to my Network website updated the drivers from there and it really updated more then I thought. So why would anyone do update driver from pc if it doesn't even update anything because "it's already up to date"? I'm following the guide.. still getting the error and crash when I did every fix listed. I really don't want to have to format my system just to fix this.

my board is a Gigabyte Aorus X870e Elite WIFI7. I don't use the wifi and it's already disabled.

Any help would be appreciated cause this didn't start happening till recently and the only thing I did was update the AMD drivers from the website because Gigabyte Control Center was giving me fits. maybe that's what's doing it? I'm not sure. Maybe GCC and AMD adrenaline edition are butting heads. But not sure which one to remove in this case if they are.

Hi,

In this case, it's best to use the manufacturer's drivers, especially if it's a Gigabyte device.

Have you tried testing with Wi-Fi without a wired network connection enabled to identify which is causing the crash?

Access the c:\windows\minidump folder, copy the files to your desktop, then upload them to OneDrive or Google Drive and post the link here for analysis.

Thanks

    My answer is this Adguard was the culprit. It has been removed, crashes stopped. If you have this program and are crashing. find their removal tool and use it. I suffered driver failure cascade after using basic uninstall options.
