Sometimes the update file is too new, and the windows and the drivers of the motherboard or graphics card may not be synchronized and cooperate, which may cause one party to crash.
I ran into another system with this issue, and simply swapped the RAM with a known working system. It did not make a difference, even with the RAM from the working system, the driver still crashed, even after I ran the AMD cleanup tool and reinstalled the driver.
It seems the combo of moving to single-channel and doing the driver cleanout/reinstall after is the ticket so far.

I am able to confirm that the solution to the display driver crash event is the following:
1. Move the RAM to a single channel configuration,
2. Set group policy to stop Windows from updating drivers from Windows Update (https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-automatic-driver-updates-windows-10)
3. Run the AMD driver cleanup tool, when it asks let it boot into safe mode to do a full cleanup (https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/gpu-601)
4. Reinstall the driver of your choice

Hello,
what about swapping the ram from an unit without this issue , with one having this issue ? (just to rule out some ram glitch)
