Hello people from AMD Community, hope everyone that reads my post are having a nice day^^
Before I start, I apologize if I make spelling spelling mistakes, English is not my main language.
The thing is that when I'm playing RE4 my game totally freezes and after a minute I get BSOD with the error code: DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION, I've tried everything like reinstalling the game, uninstalling AMD Drivers with DDU, checked my RAM health, updated BIOS version, updated my chipset drivers, checked my pc for any malware, updated Windows to the latest version and none of them seemed to help me.
I also checked my temps, everything is OK, temps under 80ºC with my graphic and less than 60ºC with my CPU, so the temps are definitely not the problem here.
I'm having this problem since I installed the game, please if someone knows how to help me to solve my issue I'll be very grateful.
I will be leaving my full PC specs along with the info that my .dmp file dropped me with Windbg

I get computer freezing while playing this game with my RX 570 8 gb. I never saw the BSOD because it freezes so hard that the BSOD doesnt show up lol. Try driver 22.11.2 while they ackowledge the issue and care to fix it. This driver works perfect for this game
