AMD software detected that a Driver timeout has Occurred on your system.

Hi, I have been Struggling with this error message for about 3 months now. 

Whenever I play certain games this error message appears and my game crashes. 

Certain games: Battlefield 1, Assassin's creed Valhalla, Hell let loose. 

I have tried Using graphics driver uninstaller in safe mode and running different versions of , AMD Drivers, Windows, My games, as well as updating all of these including my mptherboard bios and my graphics card bios. I also tried enabling 4G MMIO in my bios. My graphics Card is a AMD RX 5700 XT , My Processor is a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 , and My motherboard is an MSI X570-A pro with AMD Ryzen. 

I am currently running windows ten, I built this computer in December of 2020 and didn't have this problem until a couple months ago. I have tried everything I can think of.

I originally windows was not recognizing my driver because it was so new and was "updating" it to an earlier version from windows update, so I stopped windows update but after all of this I still cant find what the real problem is. I need someone else's expertise on this.

 

I also tried following advice from this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/mym8xb/possible_solution_if_you_are_experiencing_driver/

but the post is old and I don't understand a lot of what they're talking about.

Increase swap and change your computer's power plan

Open PowerShell, paste and change power plan

powercfg -duplicatescheme e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61

 

I tried increasing the power plan to max as well as setting the crash rate for 15 seconds before the error. I am not overclocked but it just took longer to crash.
