You have a fairly old Intel Motherboard so you must make sure all Drivers are up to date on it first.

Make sure all of your Intel Drivers are up to date, especially the Intel Graphics driver. You can download and use Intel's own Driver updater to do that: Intel Driver & Assistant - Intel® Driver & Support Assistant.

After you updated all of your Intel drivers using the Intel tool from above, reinstall the Rx 570 AMD driver again using this basic method:

Uninstall the current AMD Driver using DDU as per this method:

It could be due to a corrupted AMD Driver installation.

Download free program DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller). Run it in Safe mode with the internet disconnected.

You can also run it in Windows Desktop but then you would need to Reboot the computer for DDU to finish erasing all of  the AMD Driver traces from your computer.

 Once it finishes uninstalling the current AMD Driver in Safe mode and boots back to Windows Desktop, still with the Internet disconnected, delete the AMD Installation folder C:\AMD if it was created before.

Now install the full AMD Drive package you downloaded manually from AMD Download page. Not the express package. Run the package and if it installs correctly again delete C:\AMD folder and reconnect the internet.

This should prevent any conflict when installing the new version from the previous version.

By the way, C:\AMD is always created whenever you run the AMD Driver package

First you need to post your computer information like Make & Model of Motherboard, CPU, GPU, PSU and Windows, BIOS, and AMD Driver currently installed.

If this is a laptop, then please give the exact Laptop model you have.

Then run DXDIAG and "Save to File" and attach it to your next post to see what is going on.

Once I know that Make & Model of your Computer hardware I can check to see if you downloaded the correct AMD Driver.

Possibly you AMD driver is corrupted when you installed it or it isn't the correct one.

ASUS Z97-E lastest bios, Core i7 4790K, ASUS RX 570 4GDDR5, Win10 64bit, with lastest amd adrenalin software update wich broke my DirectX installation
