System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19044-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT ATI Technologies Inc. 4.5.0 Core Profile Context 23.4.3.230420

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.5.1, branch: blender-v3.5-release, commit date: 2023-04-24 18:11, hash: e1ccd9d4a1d3
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
Switching to render viewport causing blender to crash. Rendering normally works

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Enable Cycles rendering
Press the rendering viewport option

(this could be as a result of installing my new gpu (RX 6700 xt) today)

That is quite possible.

Please download alpha build from https://builder.blender.org/download/daily andrun file blender_debug_log.cmd. After crash upload created files. Check debug log file and if .crash.txt file is mentioned at the end, please upload that file as well.

Here is the requested files. I did not seem to find a crash.txt mentioned at the end.

Can you check if crash happens when you use CPU for rendering?

Sorry for the late reply.

Setting it to CPU for rendering also seems to crash.

Thanks for update, I think, it's less likely to be GPU related issue then. Can you upload logs as requested previously when rendering with CPU? Prehaps there will be more info.

Also check if this happens with alpha build from https://builder.blender.org/download/daily/

I cant even launch into blender. Launching it just outputs the files I sent last time. Could it be an issue with rendering kernels?

Ah sorry, I have requested that twice. I can't tell what is happening in your case at all. Given your sample file is pretty much default startup file, it shouldn't crash with GPU or CPU rendering. And since there aren't any similar reports I suspect system issues with your machine. Personally I would do some stress tests to exclude HW and then reinstall OS.

AFAIK rendering kernels are managed by GPU drivers, so it could be a factor. These aren't initialized or used at all when blender starts, so it should not cause crash.

Unable to replicate either.
I'm not able to access system info file uploaded at #107419 (comment). Could you re-share system info with us?: Help > Save System Info
Log file has not captured any details about crash.
Please check whether eventviewer and Reliability Monitor has captured any info related to crash

@PratikPB2123 the file is empty, probably because blender crashes even before it initializes python interpreter.

Seems like there was some left over NVIDIA Driver files. Uninstalling those seems to have fixed it.

Thank you for helping me with this.
