    the gaming laptop is about two years old. i updated to Proprietary Linux x86 Display Driver 8.42.3 because a game asked me to, and honestly i regret it. ive read about TDR, DDU, rollback, registry tweaks, and now Im overwhelmed. can someone give me a sane order to try things in so Im not changing five things at once? what am i doing wrong??

    been there man if rollback doesnt help, do a clean install: download the drievr u want first, disconnect from the internet sooo Windows Update doesnt push its own, boot into Safe Mode, run DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller), then install the downloaded package. leftover profiles from older versions cause more of these than people think.

    oof since it started right after the update, roll back first. Device Manager > Display adapters > right-click your GPU > Properties > Driver > Roll Back Driver. If teh button is greyed out, download the previous package from teh AMD support page and install that instead.

    lol same thing happened to me that pattern (black screen, then "display driver stopped responding and has recovered") is Windows TDR: teh GPU didnt answer within the timeout so Windows reset the driver 🤷 Open Event Viewer > Windows Logs > System and look for Event ID 4101 from Display or nvlddmkm/amdkmdag/igfx. The timestamps tell you if it lines up with ur symptom. fingers crossed 🤞

    yeahhh also turn off any GPU overclock or undervolt profile, including factory "OC mode" in teh vendor app. A new driver can expose an undervolt that was only barely stable before. worked for me anyway 🤷

    RAM prices doing their own thing again smh
