Hi all,

I've had this ghastly error for so long I can barely remember.
It occurs randomly it seems, though more when doing the below.
It flares up time to time for some reason, some games make it worse than others, but often occurs during gaming.
It often occurs when using Chrome.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers countless times, all are up-to-date.
AMD always flashes up ERROR OCCURED WITH WATTMAN, DEFAULT SETTINGS RESTORED or something to that effect.
I have attached the required zip file with info. Hope you all can find a solution to this.
If there's any more info I can provide, please say so.

Hi,
I've often seen this issue associated with AMD gpu drivers. Can you install the latest driver version again but this time use whats called the DDU or Display driver uninstaller.
Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) V18.0.1.5 Released. - Wagnardsoft Forum
You'll need to boot into safe mode to use it properly and it will remove any corruption left behind by former installs.

Kemical,
I have done as you said, booted into safe mode (no network), executed DDU for AMD GPU, then relaunched and installed newest drivers. Will update if there's another crash with new dumps. Thank you.
