And the desktop freezes because Windows needs to change its resolution and the GPU struggles. It could also be a driver issue. If you're using the newest version, try reverting to earlier updates.
Hey, sorry to hear you're facing these problems. It seems like the crashes are coming back, and you've already tried a few fixes. It looks like the issue might be related to your GPU driver. You mentioned trying to uninstall and reinstall drivers, but nothing changed. Since your graphics card is old and has been heavily used, it could be struggling. You might want to check its health using manufacturer tools or online diagnostics. Let me know if you need more guidance!
I just encountered a blue screen with error code System_service_exception. Whenever the game crashes or throws errors, it always points back to drivers. My GPU is an AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series — that’s old. Can you share a link to confirm I’m installing bad drivers again? Thanks! ^^
Suggest using a different GPU if feasible. By then you'd likely need outdated drivers. I haven't used AMD GPUs in about fifteen years, so I lack direct experience. With Nvidia, only the newest models have working drivers, meaning an older GPU won't gain much from updates. I haven't changed drivers in two years and am still on Windows 10.
I don’t have the chance to switch to another GPU while using drivers from October 19 before the update. ^^
