Before updating to Premiere Pro 2023 I was using the 2021 version which had the same issue but with a different result. In that version, sometimes the driver was locking up and Windows was forced to reset the driver, screen was going black for some and then reappearing. However in Premiere Pro 2023 it straight up crashes the entire Windows. I tried both Game Ready and Studio drivers (using a studio driver right now), tried reinstalling the driver, reinstalling premiere pro but none worked. The graphics card doesn't have any issues in all of the other programs, only Premiere Pro does this.
The crashes specially happen when moving the play head.
Game-play drivers often add "helper" apps/drivers for improving the gaming experience. That play havoc with video editing apps. So you may need to do "clean install" of a studio driver, which will completely remove all prior references.
And ... not all even Studio drivers work correctly. Nvidia's dropped some pretty lame drivers over the last year. May need to try a couple or three different ones.
