Yo, thanks for commenting, I'll post an update on what's happened since this post, as in my case I solved my problem and learned more about my PC in the process, so hopefully this will help you out with something, I also recommend studying and watching youtube videos about some of these things cause it's better imo to have visual aid, and I hope this helps.
When installing an update with AMD, I'll usually use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU for short), and go through a process, in which I'll explain below.
Using DDU, you have to boot your computer into safe mode, and have your internet connection disabled, I usually disconnect my LAN cable and turn off my connection from the internet taskbar icon. I also make sure to disable Windows driver updates, because Windows will install drivers that your computer is missing by default for protection measures, but it usually just ends up with your computer saying something like, "your current driver doesn't match the software", or whatever, so looking that up is crucial.
I also updated my BIOS recently, and that helped an incredible amount. I used a program called OCCT to just see what my motherboard was, and went to the manufacturers website and found the driver for my motherboard (it's an ASUS B550 pro4), because previously it was using an update from 2020 (yeesh). Your motherboard will most likely be different than mine so make sure to find out who made it and what kind of type it is.
And since I used DDU, I could boot my computer back into safe mode and just use the auto update tool AMD has on the website.
As for booting your computer in safe mode, I'll provide a check-list just for convenience (I might come back to this thread someday idk). I am on Windows 11 fyi but it should be similar on 10
also make sure to disable windows auto updates, idk if I stated it before but can't hurt.
after disconnecting from the internet, and before using DDU, go into your windows search bar and type, "system configuration", and from there go into the boot tab, click on safe mode and minimal, and the next time you turn your pc off and on it'll go into safe mode, and from there you can use DDU to clean and safely uninstall your graphics and potential cpu drivers.
After that I made sure to reverse my safe mode options and restart the pc, and I reinstalled the AMD auto update tool.
Then a couple of weeks later I was having problems with my games crashing, and found out that my BIOS needed updating, and looked up some youtube videos about it and studied it a bit before going through with it.
Hope this helps, good luck and may the force be with you!
