My vegas is making my pc turn into a black screen

I recently bought Vegas Pro 22 and I’ve been having several problems.

First, when I’m editing a video, sometimes the preview and the program don’t cooperate. The preview may turn black and not come back, or Vegas might just crash. But the real problem is that sometimes the program closes by itself and deletes my project. If autosave had been disabled, I probably would’ve lost around 20 hours of work.

Now, it’s even worse—sometimes the program causes both of my monitors to turn off, and my PC doesn’t recover unless I restart it.

Just to be clear, my hardware is not the issue. Here are my specs:

Ryzen 5 5500

Radeon RX 6600

16 GB RAM

1 TB NVMe SSD

100 GB SSD (Windows is installed here)

1 TB HDD

650W Bronze-rated PSU

I have no idea what’s going on. Has anyone experienced something similar or found a solution?
