Loading screens sometime completely freeze my PC.

Same issue for me with a brand new PC and up to date drivers :(
The only solution is to simply downgrade windows version 24h2 to 23h2. If you can fix it from the recovery screen, it is a solution, but if not, you will have to reinstall the OS.
The official installer is forced to 24h2, so if you do not have the official installer that was previously distributed, reinstalling the OS will not solve the problem.
I have the 23h2 installer^^.
after receiving my new PC with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, poe kept constantly freezing my full pc which was absolutely awful.

this solution below is working stable for now after 3 full days of tinkering. even remaking windows wouldnt have helped because...

its actually a windows / AMD CPU problem. according to this article https://winfuture.de/news,144695.html (its german) i found out that windows was working on a fix for this together with AMD. but of course with PoE2 coming up i was scared i couldnt wait for that version to release which is why i was able to find out how to get the new working windows patch early.

THIS KEEPS ALL YOUR DATA, THIS IS NO FULL WINDOWS RE-INSTALL, JUST A WINDOWS UPDATE.

2. then follow these steps: https://imgur.com/a/U1odJtX

so for now it worked flawlessly for around 6h of testing, no freezes, no crashing. i hope it stays stable.

Good lord, there is no clean way for me to rever to 23h2 short of clean installing and wiping my drive.
