    Random BSOD when using chrome. Maybe because of new GPU


    I was just browsing in chrome when my PC suddenly crashed. I started the PC again only to crash when getting to the desktop. I recently got an AMD Fury graphics card which has been causing a lot of trouble(crashes) and just today i found a driver that allowed me to play without the driver crashing.
    All the temperatures were normal before the BSOD.
    I hope the attached files can help you to help me.

    Any help is much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    I ran furmark for about 15 minutes reaching 72C without any artifacts.

    The problem is caused by your graphics driver. Run Display Driver Uninstaller(DDU)
    Make sure you tick the Uninstall C:/AMD and C:/NIVIDA folders while you are in DDU when you are done running DDU install your graphics driver again and you should be good to go! This is the guide for DDU: Display Driver Uninstaller: How to use

    Remember to remove Catalyst and only install the graphics driver.

    I didn't see an option to "tick the Uninstall C:/AMD and C:/NIVIDA folders", but i selected AMD in the DDU. Afterwards I installed the latest crimson driver and only checked the display driver(leaving HDMI, ACP and some other settings unchecked).

    I just ran Arma 3 and it crashed after a few seconds. I get the "AMD display driver has stopped working and has successfully recovered" notice.
    I have attached the error from arma 3.

    So same thing with a new driver? Installing only the display driver and nothing else?

    Yeah, exactly. No catalyst at all.

    Alright, I could play arma 3 without crashing now. Installed the 15.7 driver. I don't know if the BSOD have been fixed though.
