After Effects 2021 crashes at launch. BSOD with error VIDEO DXGKRNL FATAL ERROR
Hi all, this is kinda urgent.
I work with AE at school and suddenly my pc won't open AE anymore. Whenever I try to open the program it loads for about 10 seconds, then at the "Initializing Media Core" stage everything freezes, I hear the laptop fan stopping and then I get a BSOD with the VIDEO DXGKRNL FATAL ERROR.
I hadn't installed or done anything to my PC at all before the error started to pop up.
So far I have:
-Completely uninstalled and reinstalled my graphics drivers on safe mode
-Updated Windows 10 to version 21H1
-Reinstalled Direct X using the installer provided by Windows
-Renamed the Media Core Commons folder
And nothing has worked so far. I still get the BSOD and Im running out of time.
Here are my laptop specs, it an Acer Nitro 5. Any help will be very much appreciated.
AMD Ryzen 5 2500U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx 2.00 GHz
AMD Radeon(TM) Vega 8 Graphics
RAM 8,00 GB
64 Bits, x64
Gotta say it again, before all this happened my PC was working just fine with the 2021 version of AE.
