In early March AMD released a new one drivers for your chipsets (from A320 to X570) that caused problems during installation. It's been a month since the company has released a new version that solves the problems of the previous version, but now this new version of drivers seems to be causing some unique problems.
In short, AMD is not out of one problem and has already run into another, at least in terms of its drivers. And sometimes it's best to wait a few days before you can even start update your drivers to see that they have no problem.
Having problems with AMD chipset driver
Continue with the fact that not all users suffer from these problems, but the number of users they encounter is high enough to say that it is a serious problem. As always when there are problems with software, it is because the PC platform is overloaded and it depends on the computer and software we have on the machine to determine that we have won the "lottery".
The same kind of troubleshooting version is 2.04.04.111, which includes chipsets from AMD A320 to X570 on Ryzen processors and Threadripper's A399 and TRX40 chipsets.
Problems created by these drivers vary: there are users who say that the Ryzen Master now reports absurd amounts to the processor, some users even can't manage to start the Ryzen Master, and some others have experienced an increase in processor usage, and subsequent increases in exposed heat and noise as the fan should go faster. In any case, more serious problems but that also indicate that something is not working properly.
What to do if you have any problems
AMD has already stated that it is working with other users involved to resolve this version of its chipset drivers. In fact, if you want, you can access the source (linked to under these stories) and provide the following information so that they can study your specific case:
- % user profile% AMD_Chipset_IODrivers.Log
- % userprofile% device_ID.log
- c: windowsinfsetupapi.dev
- c: windowsinfsetupapi.log
- c: windowsdpinst.log
This information will help AMD software engineers identify and fix the problem with this version of drivers, but in the meantime they also say that the best thing you can do is to reinstall the previous type of drivers.
To find this, as shown in the image above, you must go to the AMD download website by selecting your chipset, and when we have to select the operating system, you must click on "Previous drivers" to access previous versions and download them.
