A770 - Random game crahes Intel ARC Driver: 31.0.101.4032

[ThorVexx]

I installed the Intel ARC driver Version 31.0.101.4032 yesterday, and since then an I had an unusual number of random game crashes.

AC Valhalla crashed on multiple occasions today, and it did not do so before, same with Modern Warfare(2019) and Modern Warfare II(2022), in MW1 a could not even load a savegame before the game threw me back to the desktop.

I rolled my driver back to 31.0.101.3975, which seems to have fixed the issues.

My question would be, if anyone else had these kind of issues with version 31.0.101.4032?
