I recently updated to the 24.20.11001.5003 drivers for my RX480. Never had any issues before. I have a 3 monitor setup and now every few seconds the third monitor will blink a different color and the mouse as well as all other activity will freeze for about 3 seconds. It continues to do this on and off indefinitely. I rolled back my drivers to a previous version and the problem disappeared.
First question: What causes this issue and is there a fix?
Second question: After rolling back everything seemed to be fine but now when trying to open Radeon settings I get the message "Radeon settings and driver versions do not match. Please try again after updating to the latest version(s)" Now there is no way to access the program to do things such as set up eyefinity and whatnot.
Is there any way to roll back my Radeon Settings program? I have looked for quite a while and have had no such luck yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I found how to repair the "Radeon settings do not match" error after rolling back the drivers at the following link.

Apparently you just have to delete the proper key in the registry to get rid of the message and enable you to use the AMD settings program once again. Now I am able to use eyefinity and all other options again. I will continue to use the old drivers until the next release and hopefully the issue will resolve itself.
Edit: Yes that is the exact issue I am having. Doesn't seem to matter how many screens I have hooked up or what connections are used to connect them to the pc.
