GPU-Z causes some freezes while Steam is launched

You may want to fill in your PC(s)' specs in your forum profile.
You can get help better & easier that way and many questions can be avoided. :)

Does the crash happen every time you start GPU-Z and then Steam or only sometimes?

AMD or NVIDIA card?

Oh, hey, sorry, I guess It didn't happen every time, you see, at first the problem happened really rarely, then it was getting more and more often to such an extent that those freezes and BSODs were expected to be followed by each launching of Steam.

Furthermore, the same issue happened to my gpu 1070, with any driver version. As I said, I firstly used to consider my gpu to be an issue, so I gave it to my friend to make certain.
Intel HD driver version is the last one 15.40
By the by, this problem happens on Windows 8.1 and 10 both. Actually, I am a bit puzzled.

My CPU is i5-4590.

Would you be willing to do a debugging session with me? Through Skype (text-chat only)

No problem, however If it is possible for you, I would rather prefer chatting either in Telegram or Whatsapp. ( if not, then Skype )
I am a little bit busy now, what about evening? Does it suit you? Do we have any difference in time? I live in Ukraine and it is 14:03 right now.
Please, let me know. :)

Sending builds through whatsapp is a bit complicated, i found skype to be easiest.

I'm a bit busy too, watching football :) What would be a good time for you?

Okay, no problem :)
Well, at 7 or 8 PM is fine, I guess. If it is not really suitable for you, please, let me know.
 
Probably 8 pm. Add me on Skype and we'll figure it out (w2zzard is my username)
 
Guys, did you get a chance to talk/chat on Skype? :)
Please let us know if the debugging session found something useful.

With previous builds, the whole system froze immediately when I starting CS:GO with GPU-Z in background. At least, this build doesn't have that bug.
