   Solved thanks to ReddishRat.  Switched PCIE from Auto to Gen 2.  No more lockups.  No more multimonitor capability either.

	Build: ASRock X570 Steel Legend motherboard v1.7 BIOS AMD Ryzen 3600 / Corsair water cooling Gskill F4-3400C16D-16GSXW x 2 (4 sticks) Samsung 970 Plus 250gb (boot) Samsung 970 Plus 1tb WD Red 4TB in mirror array LD Bluray r/w x2 Everything works fine until I install the ASRock graphics drivers. After install, I can boot into Windows but about 5-15 seconds into desktop, the PC locks up. I have reinstalled Windows 10 Pro about five times trying different sequences (install Windows, all updates, the graphics drivers OR install Windows, no updates the graphics driver or ad infinitum). If I don't install the Radeon drivers I can't run multiple displays and I am sure I am not getting much performance from my very expensive graphics card. Thoughts?
