I have formatted the drive....deleted the drive....reinstalled the
AMD Drivers... and it just keeps coming back.

try https://www.hdsentinel.com/ without buying for a test of all
drives on your PC

The Surface Test is not included in the trial edition of HD Sentinel.
You have to buy to get that feature.

The trialware edition doesn't include any tests. I paid for the Pro
edition ($30) to get the full suite of tests. I didn't need any of the
remoting features in the much higher priced Enterprise edition.

Neat. I forgot about that command for the hardware testing tutorial!
o I'm gonna add your suggested cut-&-paste one liner:

o Win+R %comspec% /k chkdsk C: /r {control+shift+enter}
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.
Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N) y
This volume will be checked the next time the system restarts.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

So I ran the check disk as a user as follows:
o Win+R %comspec% /k chkdsk C: /r {control+shift+enter}

Then I booted and watched it for a while, but of course, it's boring:
o https://i.postimg.cc/rm0zHSGT/bsod108.jpg

I left chkdsk to do its four stages, which took about a half hour:
o Stage 1 ¡V verifying files;
o Stage 2 ¡V verifying indexes;
o Stage 3 ¡V verifying security descriptors;
o Stage 4 ¡V verifying Usn Journal and sectors.

Coming back to a login.
o Now what?

Where's the check disk log file anyway?
o Googling, I find it's a common question...

The first thing you're supposed to check, supposedly, is:
o Win+R control View by: Category
System and Security Security and Maintenance Maintenance
Drive Status
You're looking for "All drives are working properly" of course.
o https://i.postimg.cc/GpdzP63J/bsod113.jpg

One way to view the check disk log is have powershell create it:
o https://i.postimg.cc/Cx8W1dFN/bsod110.jpg

o Win+R powershell {control+shift+enter}
$path = "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\E xplorer\User Shell Folders"
$UserDesktop = (Get-ItemProperty -Path $path -Name "Desktop").Desktop
get-winevent -ProviderName "ChkDsk" | fl timecreated, message | out-file "$UserDesktop\ChkDskResults.txt"
get-winevent -FilterHashTable @{logname="Application"}| ?{$_.providername -match "wininit"} | fl timecreated, message | out-file "$UserDesktop\ChkDskResults.txt" -append

Another way to view the check disk log is the event viewer:
o https://i.postimg.cc/KY7fgm0S/bsod109.jpg

Open the Event Viewer
o Win+R eventvwr
Event Viewer (Local} Windows Logs Application
(Scroll down to see "Wininit (Windows Initialization)"

An easier way to _find_ the log is to filter events:
o https://i.postimg.cc/3wcrrQHp/bsod112.jpg

To filter by events, Rightclick on:
Event Viewer (Local) Windows Logs Application
Select "Filter Current Log"
In the Event sources dropdown, check
[x]Chkdsk
[x]Winit
[OK]

You can also spit out the last few event viewer logs:
Get-EventLog -LogName Application -Source chkdsk | Select-Object -Last 5 -Property TimeGenerated,Message | Format-Table -Wrap| out-file "$env:userprofile\Desktop\CHKDSK_SCANS.txt"

There is apparently also wevtutil but I couldn't get it to work.
o wevtutil epl [Application/System/Security/etc] [savepath&filename]
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/wevtutil

Also there's a task scheduler option for check disk:
o https://i.postimg.cc/QMGpNTYN/bsod114.jpg
o Win+R taskschd.msc
Task Scheduler (Local) Task Scheduler Library
Microsoft Windows Chkdsk ProactiveScan

http://woshub.com/view-check-disk-chkdsk-results-in-windows-10/
Note: "chkdsk C: /F /R" is probably what I should have run
because that will "fix" the bad sectors, or maybe even
"chkdsk C: /F /R /X" to unmount it first, or,
"chkdsk C: /f /offlinescanandfix" to check it offline.

Note: I could also have run a "Storage Diagnostic Tool" test:
stordiag.exe -collectEtw -checkfsconsistency -out %userprofile%\desktop

Note: There's also a check disk equivalent in powershell:
Repair-Volume ¡Vdriveletter C ¡Vscan
Repair-Volume ¡Vdriveletter C ¡Vofflinescanandfix
Repair-volume ¡Vdriveletter E ¡Vspotfix
Repair-Volume -DriveLetter EHI ¡VSpotFix
You can even scan drives on remote computers:
Repair-Volume ¡Vdriverletter c -scan ¡Vcimsession ny-fs01,ny-fs02,ny-dc01
And you can scan SMART status of HDD using "cmdlets"

You may need to change the disk access method in BIOS setup.
