GPU crash dump fix (AMD RX 9070 XT)

[enemyrtch]

I did 20 things and nothing worked. This is what did it for me :

A. Clean driver slate : Safe-boot ➔ run DDU (AMD, “Clean & Restart”) ➔ install Adrenalin 25.3.2 WHQL with Factory Reset (overlay disabled) and block Windows driver updates.

B. Purge shader caches : Disk Cleanup ► DirectX Shader Cache; PowerShell (admin) ➔ remove
%LOCALAPPDATA%\UnrealEngine\*\* • %LOCALAPPDATA%\OblivionRemastered\Saved\*\* • %LOCALAPPDATA%\AMD\DxCache\* • %LOCALAPPDATA%\AMD\GLCache\*.

C. Trash temp files : delete everything inside %TEMP% and C:\Windows\Prefetch.

D. Strip NV Streamline DLLs : delete every sl.* file in
…\Engine\Plugins\Marketplace\nvidia\DLSS\Streamline\Binaries\ThirdParty\Win64\.

E. Harden game EXE :
 • Properties ► Compatibility ► ✔ Run as administrator & ✔ Disable fullscreen optimisations.
 • Change high DPI settings ► ✔ Override → Application.
 • Windows Security ► Exploit protection ► Program settings ► add EXE ► Control-flow guard = Off.

F. Kill MPO & HAGS :
 • Registry (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Dwm) ► DWORD OverlayTestMode = 5.
 • Settings ► System ► Display ► Graphics ► Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling = Off.

G. Disable VRR : Settings ► System ► Display ► un-tick Variable Refresh Rate (or turn off FreeSync in monitor OSD).

H. Apply engine tweaks (Download Ultimate Engine Tweaks from Nexus mods) : copy “Ultimate Engine Tweaks” Engine.ini to
%LOCALAPPDATA%\OblivionRemastered\Saved\Config\Windows\.

I. Tame Adrenalin : Anti-Lag+, Boost, Chill, Enhanced Sync Off; Record/Stream Off; FRTC cap 60 FPS.

J. In-game switches : Reflex/Low-Latency Off, FSR 3 Frame-Gen Off, V-Sync Off, Hardware RT Off; respect external FPS cap.

K. Run the game exe directly in the root folder as admin

Result : RX 9070 XT system now runs Oblivion Remastered for 1 hour + (before it crashed 100% of the time when I would open the map or loot) without the Win64-Shipping ▸ kernel32 ▸ ntdll crash.

*note : it is helpful to ask your favourite AI model like o3, Grok, Sonnet 3.7, etc. to explain how to perform these steps if you find it daunting.

This thing looks annoying af, if I ever crash for some unknown reason, I'll consider it.
