Installing/enabling the RX 5700 driver(s) instantly goes to a black screen

Hello!

Installing/enabling the RX 5700 driver(s) instantly go to a black screen

The computer automatically updated and the GPU driver crashed instantly

After ending up reinstalling a fresh version of windows I tried the above list of drivers

I used DDU to clean up things between attempts between different drivers

Results consistent, instant crash as soon as the driver tries to start. In all but one case, but then crashed the Adrenaline software before it finished reinstalling after reboot, wouldn't load after that

Restart in safe mode, disable the driver, windows loads, and do have a display with the Windows default adapter driver

Tried installing while the internet was disconnected and turned off windows updates/driver updates

All GPU settings were factory

Sorry about your problems. Sounds very frustrating. 

It sure looks like you have done a good job at trying the normal things to fix the issues, so good job there!

If you can try testing your system with OCCT from ocbase dot com. Not sure that you can though if you can't boot normally into Window and I have never run it from safe mode, but maybe try that if you can. It can test your components power supply, GPU etc... Not sure how effective the GPU test is or if it will even run right in safe mode or sans working drivers. Worth giving it a shot though.

If that doesn't help, honestly I think you have done about all you can do and it is time to talk to the support department that made your GPU and see what they suggest. An RMA might be in order.
