PC Drivers & Software

I encountered a severe problem on my laptop HP OMEN 9 2023(AMD 7840HS + Mem 32GB + nVidia 4060).

3 non-pooled tags MiP2, Proc and EtwS just eat more and more memory, and never free any. Within 48 hours, memory usage will become 90%, and only thing I can do to alleviate this is reboot computer.

This problem disappeared after I did a clean uninstall of the driver using AMD's cleanup utility tool.

And it is returned after reinstalling the latest driver.

All these make me think the memory leak problem is caused by AMD driver.

At this point, I'm in desperate need of any help.

Thank you.

Just updated from 23.11.1 to 24.7.1. Ran a full cmd processes test with no noticeable abnormal in memory. Might give it a try.

I tried the 24.7.1 driver as well. It has been running more than 24 hours and I don't see "Proc" appearing in poolmon yet.

I think this may be fixed...though I don't see anything in the 24.7.1 release notes.

I wonder if this is related to amduep, are people unchecking the option at driver install?

This 8-month-old issue is fixed in 24.7.1!

Yes!

Finally got the RAM gobbler stopped!

Been looking here and there and testing.

Thanks folks!

Processor AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 6-Core Processor, 4701 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s)

Every few days my RAM was used up!

I put in the 23.11.1.

Will look for the patch that has the fix.

Confirmed. Finally fixed with 24.7.1 from AMD Ryzen™ 9 7900X Drivers

About **bleep** time. Still plan to test every driver going forward, in case this happens again.

Thanks for the info!

Driver 24.8.1 is still good, thank goodness.

And of course has a different issue...

Yeap I am getting hit by this as well, annoying.

At least it's noted this time, at AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 24.8.1 Release Notes

• AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition may unexpectedly initiate upon system wake from sleep mode. [Resolution targeted for 24.9.2]"

[war59312]

24.9.1 is good.
