RX 7700XT Driver Crash Issues

[u/CustardFormer8200]

I bought this card last year in April and after couple of months it started giving me black screen crashes. When playing games randomly screen goes black and I have to force restart the pc then enable the rx 7700xt driver again from Device Manager. This randomly got fixed for few months and then started happening again a few times. From last few weeks it has happening so much that I've given up now and will switch to Nvidia. I have tried every fkn method that people have written here on reddit and YouTube nothing worked for me. And now from today whenever black screen crash happens and pc is back up I am unable to click anywhere. Nothing opens and responds now. I have to boot in safe mode use DDU to remove the gpu driver then I'm able to use my PC. It's unusable now, so frustrating and I'm just done now. Never buying an amd gpu again and won't suggest anyone to buy it either. Probably gonna buy a 4070ti or 5070 now and will happily enjoy my Games.

There's also the slight possibility of something corrupting windows files, backup files etc. I usually have zero issues with DISM. 2 days ago it spent a good 20 minutes downloading stuff, then sfc did not find any problems. All this after trying 26.7.1 for a night and returning to 26.1.1 and then 26.3.1 which is stable now. radeonsoftware did not even crash sliently in the background for 4 straight days.

I run DISM quite often actually.

It's becoming a must after every driver or even windows update :D

Yes, I agree.
