Last night I purchased a second-hand sapphire rx570 nitro+ and after installing the drivers, the crash report app shows an issue and Windows says the device has stopped working due to reported problems (code 43). I’m not sure if the problem is with Windows or if the GPU itself is damaged.

Check if your graphics card is connected to the card or the motherboard. If it's the card, ensure the BIOS is up to date.

Could you try upgrading or switching to a different system if the BIOS is problematic? If that's not an option, what alternatives are available that might function better?

It might have been used before for cryptocurrency mining, with its VBIOS altered for that purpose. Consider reverting to the regular VBIOS if needed.

I don't understand how to flash standard VBIO.

Techpowerup provides everything required for that task. Check out the AMDVBFlash tool here: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/ati-atiflash/. For BIOS options, visit: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?arc...id=&since=. Sharing more details about your card would help us suggest the best fit. Uploading photos could simplify the process.

According to YB, it might have been suitable for mining. You can simply apply the Atiflash tool here: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/ati-atiflash/ and another link: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?arc...ize=&since

Consensus reached. Inspect the card closely for minor DIP switches. Some cards allow choosing between two BIOS versions—one optimized for mining, another standard.

Observation noted. The Nitro cards featured BIOS switches as well. A video demonstrates their usage.
