I have read allot and seen many similar threads, but none of the solutions worked for me. I left me computer on a couple nights ago I woke up went to school and came back and my screen was black and unresponsive. I then restarted my pc and it went to a black screen right before login, then I restarted in safe mode and uninstalled my gpu from the device manager. I was then able to load in normal mode. I tried uninstalled ccc and then re-installed it but it needs me to restart after every time which I then have to unistall my gpu again and so on. I started up my pc again windows installed a standard vga adapter driver for my gpu and now when I open ccc it says "catalyst control center cannon't be started" Any thoughts? I've been trying a whole bunch of things with no success and would hate for my gpu to be shot.

My specs:

i5 2500k

8gb corsair vengeance

Asrock pro 4 mobo

HD 7870

OCZ 550w modular psw

For how long did you leave your PC on?
And while you left it on did you make your GPU run any heavy things?
Did you have your PC cooled?
Because a wire could have burned through or your GPU overheated

My pc only works (doesn't go to black screen) when I uninstall my gpu from device manager, I tried install 13.1 and still no luck ccc still wont open. There has to be a driver or software issue.
