Hi there,

I recently utilized AMD’s “auto-update” tool to update all AMD-related drivers on my 5900HX laptop. Unfortunately, when attempting to download the latest Adrenaline drivers, I encountered compatibility issues as it no longer supported GCN/Vega. Without realizing this, I opted to update using the auto-update tool.

Since the update, the cold boot time has significantly increased to about 2 minutes compared to the previous 20 seconds (loading animation screen). Upon enabling boot logging, I noticed Windows repeatedly trying to load the same drivers without success, resulting in numerous BOOTLOG_NOT_LOADED entries (see screenshot). Seeking a solution, I turned to Windows’ verifier tool, but after selecting all drivers for verification and restarting, I began experiencing “system_thread_exception_not_handled” BSODs consistently. To regain access to Windows, I had to reset verifier and deactivate driver verification.

I am unsure how to proceed from here and would prefer to avoid a fresh Windows installation if possible. Any guidance on resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
