Framework 13 AMD 7640U can't play back video under Windows 11 (alien.top)

It seems like I'm the only person on the planet with this problem, but on a fresh install of Windows 11 with the latest drivers on a Framework 13 AMD 7640U, I am unable to play back video. The graphics driver crashes, sometimes so spectacularly that it hard-resets the computer. Playback works fine on Fedora 39, so I assume the hardware is fine.

Does nobody run Windows on these laptops?

I've had this issue on Lenovo Thinkpads with the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750U processors. Once in awhile the video decoding fails, and the windows display driver restarts and the system continues again.

Its weird.

Previously what would happen is the machine would hard lock/restart, and only after an AMD driver update, that it started to be less unstable.
