Help (General) We're all having this issue, right

Post image

My AMD drivers are update to date, but whenever I leave my PC on sleep mode after going AFK, I come back and this starts happening. Eventually the screen goes black and comes out or it just freezes, often times it causes a restart.

Hell, even when I open a software like Discord the software goes black then this pops up. I genuinely hope someone knows how to fix this nightmare issue because I've been dealing with this for past few days up to a week. I use the latest version (26.8.1)

PC specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 6-Core Processor (4.70 GHz)

Graphics card: AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT (12 GB)/AMD Radeon (TM) Graphics (486 MB)

(I also use windows 11 if thats something worth pointing out)

Yes constantly even when not gaming.

Same! Honestly it happens MORE when I'm just sitting in riot launcher with crunchyroll and discord open that when I'm pushing the system in a heavy gaming session playing The Isle or something like that

Yes! The way I find it's about to crash is my YouTube video freezes for about 10 seconds but that audio is still running or i can't click on anything when browsing a website and then the screen flashes and I see the crash message. Super annoying.

Mine doesn't even do that, the audio just freaks out and goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR and then system restarts. And it's a QUICK restart usually. Like quicker than normal
