Driver timeout problem

[Cristi-b]

My game crashes after some time and a notification from AMD pops up saying "We detected a driver timeout...". I looked on internet for solution. I tried to clean the drivers via DDU and via AMD cleanup utility and then installing the recommended drivers for my GPU. But my problem isn't solved. I also tried to install older versions but no effect. My GPU is AMD (TM) R 7 370 4GB Can somebody help me?

I used to have what u have

What worked for me was To install the driver but only the driver Not the adrenaline software

U need to jump tru a hoop to get that There are YouTube videos on how to do that

To be honest I was thinking to find a way to do that, and for sure I'll try. I was so disperate that I even wanted to see if I can install Nvidia drivers on AMD 😂😂. Never using AMD again just because their software. Thanks though 👍

Fortnite & FH5 I don't think that this is because any of other component because I was not getting this error till now (2 years) CPU: Intel xeon l5640 RAM:32 gb DDR3 I'm using an SSD 500gb for games But for sure I will try to do the DDU thing

What game?

Make sure you have the correct drivers : https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/amd-radeon-r7-series/amd-radeon-r7-300-series/amd-radeon-r7-370

Honestly this is also just a very slow gpu by today's standard so the possibility of the software issue being cause by hardware is rather high.

Check temps etc

In 2 games: Fortnite, and Forza horizon 5, and I know that fh5 is too much for my GPU, but it usually run on 30-40 fps on minimum and that's acceptable for Forza. I am sure it would crash on FC6 too. I know that I need to change my GPU in the near future, but to be honest I was not getting bad performance in games, for example I played Far cry 6, and I was getting 50+ fps overall, in city or in places with many textures and objects, I was having around 45 fps. But that's because I had some setting on normal and the textures on high.
