Update, latest AMD & FW drivers are doing the same thing. Cyberpunk crashes randomly, sometimes after 5-10 minutes of gaming, sometimes after 1-2 hours… And in some other games, the FW Desktop just restarts randomly; my guess is still the driver’s issue.
FW support suggested using the official FW drivers and not the AMD ones. I did again a DDU and installed those. Still the same issues…
Their next solution is to reinstall Windows, which is a pretty low-effort solution if you ask me, and probably won’t make any difference, since I have a pretty fresh install and have been having these issues for almost a month now.
Here are other issues I have that started around the same time, and I’m pretty sure all are related to the drivers:
- other small glitches in Windows around Explorer, as mentioned above;
- the mouse cursor sometimes blinks and turns cyan around specific elements, like when dragging columns in sheets or moving things around with the little hand cursor. I’ll add a picture at the end of the post for reference. This started right after the fresh install of Win 11 Pro, and it was the first sign suggesting a GPU driver issue;
- most of the times Windows cannot resume hibernation and restarts itself, losing all my work. I first thought this only happens when putting the PC in hibernation after the GPU driver crashed. But it’s not the case, it’s completely random from what I’m seeing. Hibernation does not work anymore after latest BIOS and driver updates Upon looking up the error on the Microsoft forum “Windows failed to resume from hibernate with error status 0xC0000001” and the rest of the details from the event log, this also suggests a faulty GPU driver. Will send over the dump files to them for confirmation;
- when putting it into hibernation, sometimes it still runs for like 10-15 minutes, until it shuts down;
- getting stuck in the shutting down loop, and have to force shut it off (it just stays with the fan running and led on, I left it for more than 20 minutes and it didn’t shut down);
- froze in sleep or when the screen turns off, after 5 min in my case, returning from standby got stuck and had to reboot it;
Overall, small issues, but all together very annoying.
