Solve : Blue screen of death when watching youtube videos?

Answer»

Whenever i click on a video after 5 seconds i often get a bsod, sometimes the PC just restarts and sometimes the monitor just turns black. When i get a bsod the stop code is VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE and it says that atikmpag.sys has failed. So far this only happens when watching a youtube video, it doesn't happen during gaming or when browsing the internet, but it's a new computer and i haven't tested everything on it. Although when i watch SOMETHING on internet explorer it seems to work just fine, but on chrome and edge it restarts. Also my drivers are updated and the gpu that i am using is AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Where did you get your drivers from ? ?I got the drivers from the official AMD site and it also downloaded the software radeon settings i think it's called, i downloaded the recommended 1.9.9.2 version but there is also an optional 1.9.10.1 version, i tried both versions and it restarts on both of themI would revert to the drivers that shipped with the card...newer drivers ain't always better drivers..
Best of Luck.I was using the OLD drivers for some TIME before i updated them and it was giving me a bsod when watching videos. I tried disabling hardware acceleration a few days ago and it seems like it worked, i did not get a bsod and my pc wasn't restarting. COULD this be a problem with the gpu?
