### Describe the Bug
Since installing the latest version of sunshine / moonlight it crashes my display driver on the Radeon RX 9070XT whilst streaming to XBOX client. This happens within minutes of playing games like crimson desert. System is stable when not streaming and playing the same game.
Using latest Windows 11 patched version, latest Radeon drivers (June 22 2026 release).
### Expected Behavior
Not crash....

The system crashes and reboots and the 9070XT display driver goes disabled in windows 11 device manager. It wont let me enable it again until I quit sunshine running on the PC then it re-enables just fine.

Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Start by reproducing the crash on Windows 11 with the Sunshine MSI, an ASRock RX 9070 XT, driver 26.6.2, and an Xbox client; collect the missing capture-method and log information. Done means the streaming-triggered driver failure is isolated and a verified fix or clear reproduction evidence is available.
