One solution I did read about was to rebuild the database, but think I also read there are risks in that with regard to locking me out of my system? Whether that's actually a risk, I don't know. I'm not sure about this stuff?
Anyone else find a fix? Did I get a dud?

This unfortunately has been my life for the last year (plus.... grumble). Mine crashes after about 30 minutes of playing a PS5 game. It never happens with PS4 games, or very particular PS5 games (hockey and the GTA Trilogy don't do it).
When I first contacted sony, they told me to wait for an update. Then they said they'd send me a box to send it away in, which I'd receive back within 2 months. The box never arrived so I contacted them again, at which point they told me the warranty was now expired and I could pay $250 to have it fixed.
Basically I'm just biting the bullet and playing in 30 minute increments out of spite.
I've done everything imaginable and nothing seems to work. Appears I just got a dud. Hope your situation is better.
