Hello,

So, as of recent I've started getting a popup message on my PC saying: "AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition Warning: The version of AMD Software that you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed AMD graphics driver."

When this popup comes up (which is just at a random time), it crashes my whole PC. My whole PC is rendered unusable until I forcibly power it down and reboot it.

In looking this up online it seems like this problem is linked to a corrupted AMD graphics driver. Here's the problem though; I have a NVIDIA GPU (RTX 3070 to be exact). I do have a AMD CPU (Ryzen 7 5700X), but not once have I ever had a AMD GPU. Now, my immediate thought was to open DDU thinking maybe I could just wipe any AMD graphics drivers that may be on my PC (how I would even have AMD graphics drivers on my PC is a mystery itself though). To no avail did that work though. I am still getting this message, and my PC is crashing. At this point I am just so incredibly lost on what to do. Someone help me make sense of this.



PC Specs
– Windows 11 Home (x64) Build 22631.4169 (23H2)
– Ryzen 7 5700X
– Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 Gaming OC 8G (No OC) (Driver 566.03)
– MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus
