Clean Install AMD Graphics Drivers

** Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 must be fully updated before attempting to install any AMD driver. All 'critical', 'recommended', and 'optional' (no language packs,etc) updates as well as any Service Packs (SP) must be installed before any attempt to install graphics drivers. If you do not get this message .... keep installing until you do:

First of all, what processor do you have? Intel? AMD?

1. Download and save the correct AMD driver (https://support.amd.com/en-us/download/mobile?os=Windows+7+-+64) . Do not use "automatically detect and install". Download Drivers

2. Download and save DDU https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

3. Disable All anti-virus/anti-malware/

4. Delete the contents of the C:/AMD folder of all previous drivers

Because it will install.

Try checking for system file corruption....open a command prompt ​as Administrator . Copy and paste this   sfc /scannow into the prompt. It will find and hopefully repair any problems. If problems were found that could not be repaired > Fix SFC /scannow errors that were not repaired

You can also try a previous driver > Previous

You might try downloading and installing the latest Windows Update Agent....afterwards, check Windows Update for additional updates.

Man I'm stumped. You have tried everything that I can think of.

Edit: It must not be too uncommon as Microsoft has a tool to fix it....I guess.
