I have been getting the time out error since I upgraded to 7900xtx and drivers. It only happens when I boot from cold. It stuck on a white screen until the driver timed out. it is doesn't happen when I restart or during any application. Anyone else have this problem?

The rest of my system is 5950x, Asus strix x570-e, 64gb ram (4*16) at 3200 14-14-14-31, and be quiet 1000w psu 80plus titanium
 
1. What card have you upgraded from?
2. Is Windows up-to-date?
3. Check Windows integrity with SFC /scannow and DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
4. Is your BIOS up-to-date along with your chipset drivers? (As mentioned by @eeii)
5. Disable Fast Startup (As mentioned by @eeii)
6. Clear GPU Shader Cache
7. Perform DDU and re-install latest AMD GPU drivers
8. Stress test CPU and RAM. Any failures? Any failures if you run x2 DIMMs and not x4 DIMMs?
9. Is any part of your system overclocked, undervolted or all stock?

A driver time-out is usually an underlying OS issue, faulty/corrupted drivers or hardware failure.

Hope this helps.
1. 6600xt
2. yes
3. all passed
4. latest bios and chip set drivers
5. done that
6. not sure how to do it
7. the driver is installed fresh after ddu removal
8. no failures. i use 4 sticks
9. cpu oc with pbo but its stress tested and stable

The issue seems to have gone away recently. i use windows 11 pro and the amd pro drivers if that helps
