Right so i have been using my intergrated graphics for awhile now thought id get a upgrade, looked around and this card seem to fit the puzzle nicely, but ive encountered a problem, currently running VGA from the card to monitor Work Fine. can get to desktop at lowest res, As soon as i try and install drivers for the card it will want to restart to put the new drivers into effect. upon restart, i would get BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) 100% of the time after restart. I can restore windows using AMD Driver Cleanup tool (Uninstall Tool). just wandering if anyone is having the same problems or if im doing anything majorly wrong. Any advice will be appreciated :)

EDIT:
Also unable to detect Graphics card on device manager, just 'Standard VGA Graphics Adapter'

Right click on my comp then click on manage then under system tools click on device manager then in the middle segment on the window you'll find display driver it'll be third one then click on it and uninstall and den install a fresh copy of windows den install your display drivers

First uninstall your pc's display driver if you are using windows 7, it will choose some wdm 1.1 display driver and then Reinstall Your windows it's best thing to do and then install your drivers

i have bought this card few months before
i install driver from manufacture website and since then a lot of games were not working then i tried some forums for that and it came into my notice that for some how latest drivers are not supporting by this card and then i tried to install older version for this card and 14.12 version of catalyst control center work for me
since then i am plying batman arkham knight and assassin creed syndicate without any problem at 1024x768 resolution. hope that will solve your problem
