I will go more in depth of what was happening. I had loss power due to bad connector to the power cable to the GPU with out knowing it for a while I was thinking it just time to buy a GPU until I noticed a red light on the GPU then replaced the power cable. before that it would work fine for a week or two and even three. this went on for two month period. I have since replaced the power cable and have had no problems since.
when the GPU lost power the OS would switch to onboard graphics without telling me it had done so, I would see blue lights on the GPU, so I thought I was still using the GPU. I go back into the game and the game tells me it need to reload shaders. so now I am reloading shadders for the onboard graphics and not knowing it, which I don't want. have to back out of the game, try to open adrenaline but it wont because it does not match GPU hardware (this when I realize i am in onboard graphics but the blue lights are on the GPU), so I re-install the drivers from the download to get adrenaline to open up again (for the GPU) and then the Adrenaline software from inside the Home page in Adrenaline wants to reinstall the same version number I had just installed from the download.
Then I get to reinstall the shaders for the game, again. I went through 2 months of this crap until I realized I needed to replaced the power cable.
but that is not what this post is about. after doing the 6 times why is Adrenaline software telling me I need to reinstall the same version I just installed from the AMD web sight? I now understand that there are two different link locations for the same drivers with different dates. please fix it
