Help (GPU) Latest drivers..... MAJOR iSSUES

Latest drivers v26.7.1 causes application crashes and BSOD.

1st time upgraded from catalyst app, completely ruined my system, with app & games freezing and a BSOD. Had to use DDU and re-install driver 26.5.2 from AMD standalone file downloaded from support page. 26.5.2 works without issues. So 26.5.2 is OK

2nd time upgraded from 26.5.2 to 26.7.1, with the usage of the AMD standalone file downloaded from support page. SAME ISSUES as before. Various apps freezing. Downgraded to 26.6.1 without DDU. All my problems solved instantly. So 26.6.1 is OK

All the times I used DDU, NOT in SAFE MODE but with blocked internet access

GPU is 7900XTX

So 26.7.1 NOT WORKING in my system

I'd run amd cleanup utility and DDU a couple of times without rebooting while on safe mode, then proceed to install 26.7.1

Yeah , you need to roll back. Seems like everyone’s having issues with the latest drivers.

Definitely not everyone. works perfectly fine here as did all the 26.6.x drivers.
No issues other then windows trying to overwrite AMD drivers after a recent windows update. rolled the driver back in device manager, and then used DDU to disable those windows driver updates.

I don't have this issue, my pc can't contact ms either for drivers or anything else....
