Dragon Age Veilguard crashing

I am having a lot of problems with Veilguard. Sometimes I click the start to begin playing and it starts up and the screen goes to the black screen right before the character scrawl and it just stops running and goes back to the desktop, and occasionally it will load up and when I try to go into an Andeluvian from the Crossroads, it starts to load and then it will again shut down to desktop, usually with no error message whatsoever.

I have looked all over the internet for answers, updated every driver (my GPU is less than a week old and my computer is only 2 weeks old) and I am at a loss for what to do.

    The GPU you use was released in 2018, is that a used model? 

    1.  Follow this manual to the letter to clean uninstall all AMD graphic driver components.
      IMPORTANT: if you use a Pin to log into Windows 11 don't use DDU in safe mode!
      Use it in your normal Windows session.
    2. Install the graphics driver > Go online.
    1. Test.

    It was branded as not used when I bought it on Amazon. And I did research and it said the RX 580 was a still a good GPU for gaming on several websites that I checked out.  I did the DDU thing and going to try to see if it works now.

    It's still a fine GPU, no doubt about it. It was just important to know if it had been used for almost seven years.
