Windows10 AMD instability & crashing


Recommended Posts

Hey All,

I have just done a fresh install of windows 10 and VW crashes about one

minute after opening. The drawing windows first becomes unresponsive

then VW crashes.

I have also found Sketchup also crashes but Light Converse has no problem. Has anyone else had problems with Win10 and AMD drivers? Have tried older driver versions with no success.

Here are the system specs.

GIGABYTE B85M-HD3 i7 4770 @ 3.4GHz

ATI R390 ASUS STRIX-R9390-DC3OC-8GD5-GAMING

GPU DRIVER 16.7.1 (LATEST)

16GB DDR3 DUAL CHANNEL

250GB SAMSUNG SSD

I had no issues on the same computer with Win7

Check and see if you have a "Raptr" or "plays.tv" utility installed, it comes with the most recent AMD drivers it looks like and can cause constant crashes:

However, you SHOULD make sure your AMD drivers are up to date, but then just remove these listed utilities afterwards, outdated drivers alone can also cause crashes like that.
