Ryzen 5 5600G crashes/reboot loop whenever AMD graphics driver installs — Safe Mode works
I’m honestly losing my mind with this issue.
System:
Ryzen 5 5600G (integrated gpu ), no gpu windows 11
Problem:
Windows suddenly started crashing/reboot looping during normal boot. Safe Mode works perfectly fine.
After using DDU, Windows boots normally using Microsoft Basic Display Adapter. But the moment I install AMD graphics drivers again, the system crashes again during installation or next boot.
Things I already tried:
- DDU multiple times in Safe Mode
- AMD Cleanup Utility
- Disabled Windows automatic driver installs
- Disconnected internet during installs
- Removed C:\AMD folders
- Disabled XMP/DOCP in BIOS
- Tried latest AMD drivers
- Tried reinstalling drivers offline
Behavior:
AMD installer crashes around 37–38% or sometimes 98%
• Screen goes black
• After reboot, Windows enters repair loop again
• Safe Mode always works afterward
• No error code
At this point I’m trying to figure out:
> Is this a corrupted Windows driver store issue?
> Broken AMD Adrenalin version?
> Something specific to 5600G APUs?
>Would manual Device Manager driver install work better?
>Should I just reinstall Windows cleanly now?
Would appreciate any ideas before I wipe the whole OS. HELP ME PLS!
