Black Screen on Startup After Installing AMD Drivers

Hello,

Today I installed a new AMD gpu in my pc, I used ddu to completely uninstall to get rid of any traces of my previous card before installing the new one. When I had installed the drivers for my new gpu and restarted the pc, everything would be fine, until I got past the lock screen and got onto the home screen and a few seconds later, the screen would go black, and I'd have to hold the power button to fully power it off to boot it up again.

I am able to write this because I disabled the gpu in device manager and am using the "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" instead.

If anyone has a fix or help to this, I'd love it.

Thanks!

It is a unfixable issue, I have tried all sort of way to fix this issue. except tear the card itself apart and reapply thermal pest.
best recomendation is to switch to Nvidia. 
until AMD going to do something to fix this issue they have since 2000s
