Drivers crashing all the time

Hi, 

Since a few weeks, I've been having some crashes when playing (Mainly with games that requires a lit bit of graphics, eg: Armored Core 6, Starfield, WarThunder, Valorant, and a few others). The case is that, at the beginnig I thought that it was my graphic card bc I had a radeon 570, it had some years, but still works (I always check that my drivers are updated) and ngl I decided to change the hardware bc It usually crashed on Baldurs Gate 3, in other games didn't crash.

So I decided to update my computer. I changed everything (CPU, GPU, PSU, RAM, Motherboard), I thought that the problem was the hardware, because sometimes my GPU crashed while playing (with the 570), later on, when I changed the hardware, whenever I started a game some of them started crashing from the beginning, some other took more minutes like max 20 mins. Im actually at the 23.8.2 of AMD Driver version, and I also cleaned the SSD where I had the SO, in case there were drivers corrupted.

But still, appears a pop-up that says  "AMD Software detected that the time of a driver expired". I also downloaded the Display Driver Uninstaller and clean the drivers from AMD and installed all again, I even installed some older version, but it still crashes... I also used the option of reset from factory in the AMD Adrenalin, but nothing new...

 

I dont know what else to do, Im having this issue at least 2 weeks ago. I don't if it is a problem from the drivers or even from my GPU

This is the hardware I have:

CPU: i7-12700K

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT

Motherboard: MSI MAG B760 TOMAHAWK WIFI DDR4

RAM: 32GB

PSU: 850W Corsair Gold

SO: Windows 10 Pro

Driver version of GPU AMD: 23.8.2

 

And this is what I had before:

CPU: i5-7000(?

GPU: AMD Radeon 570

PSU: 650W Silver

RAM: 16GB

SO: Windows 10 Pro

Motherboard: B300 (? I dont remember XD

1---Make sure your windows install is not corrupted

2--Run this command at a powershell administrator command prompt      DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

 

3--- Run this command at a powershell administrator command prompt    sfc /scannow

 

4---run display driver uninstaller in safe mode to clean up the amd files and registry and reboot into regular windows mode

4.5----go to windows update page a pause updates for 7 days

 

5---Reinstall the driver
