I am running a Dell workstation with Firepro W5100 graphics. Recently upgraded to Windows 10. I tried updating my drivers from the default v15.200.1045.0 but any newer versions cause the display to enter power saving mode. The only way to get a functioning computer back is to boot into safe mode, uninstall the drivers and allow Windows to install the default version mentioned above.
Note that the problem occurs both when windows update tries to install a newer driver and when I manually try to update with the latest drivers from the AMD website. The power saving mode remains after rebooting multiple times. I need to enter Safe Mode and uninstall the driver to get my screen to show. The monito enters into power saving mode the moment windows tries to install the driver and never recovers (i.e. normally when updating drivers it willl go blank for a few seconds and the back on, but not in this case).
I have cleaned my installation using the DDU utility but it makes no difference.
I have also tried to move the display port cable to a different port but the monitor still does not come on.
Note that Windows does not complain until I manually reset it so it appears that the driver does install correctly...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
