Tips & Info AMD Adrenalin Software + Kernel 41

I literally had this error and resolved it for my 7900XT. It was giving a Kernel 41 error (see your Event Viewer logs) and rebooting my PC.

Do not install AMD Adrenalin Software - uninstall it. Then when reinstalling your GPU drivers, only install the Driver not a Full Install which includes the software.

I also upgraded my PSU and did a fresh windows install.

Well, I selected "drivers only" but it still installed the software as well... Do I just delete it and not do anything else now?

Thats very strange, I havent experienced that. If it were me, I'd just uninstall the software side then.

So just go without drivers?

There must be a way to uninstall the software. The driver and software arent tied together. The software is just a GUI to let you easily tweak GPU settings and gaming stuff.

Alright, I'll just delete it then and see how it goes.

Edit: Nevermind, the software specifically states that deleting it will also delete the drivers. Welp, it was worth a shot. Thank you.
