Hello,
I have been facing a problem for a while now where I can't run Unity Games. I can run other games just fine (ie. Devil May Cry 5, New World, Deep Rock Galactic, Final Fantasy 14, etc. all on high graphics), but for some reason when trying to start Songs of Conquest, my computer would freeze and I'd be forced to do a computer Reset. This all started when I nuked and paved my computer.
I thought I fixed the problem when I updated my Ryzen Drivers (using Ryzen Master). Songs of Conquest was now starting, but would still crash. Games like Wall Rider were still freezing my computer when executing the application.
Here's what Event Viewer is telling me for Songs of Conquest after I had updated the Ryzen Drivers. Beforehand it would just freeze the computer. Now the game just crashes after the publisher and studio intro shows up. Normally I should reach the starting menu, but instead it crashes.

Wall Rider would just crash on startup and I would get the Unity Crash Alert. Until I reinstalled it.

After I verified it and solved that issue is when it now freezes my computer forcing a reset, a problem I had before I updated drivers for Songs of Conquest. It doesn't even show up in Event Viewer and I had to look for it on the Reliability Monitor.

Something seems to be off about the dll for both games. I suspect it's a CPU issue since that seems to have been the right direction for Songs of Conquest, but I could be just making assumptions.
Here are my system specs,
OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Processor AMD Ryzen 7 2700 Eight-Core Processor, 3200 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s)
BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc. 4207, 2018-12-07
SMBIOS Version 3.1
BIOS Mode UEFI
BaseBoard Manufacturer ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
BaseBoard Product ROG STRIX B350-F GAMING
BaseBoard Version Rev X.0x
I don't really know what to make of it all since everything was working fine. Previously I just had the free version of Microsoft Windows 10x32. Is there a driver I'm missing that Unity Games typically need? I actually did turn off Core Precision in Bios, which solved another problem I had with my EDC (CPU) being maxed at a 100, but this still didn't solve my issue with starting Unity Games.
I troubleshooted for several days on and off and would appreciate any feedback people may have. I'm at my wits end. Thank you in advance.
