I posted this a few days ago, but still haven't been able to figure this out. I have retried all steps in the thread and no found positive results.

I bought this graphics card:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I0D81OG/ref=s9_psim...

to replace my XFX 6870 and haven't been able to get the drivers to show in Device manager, nor can I get CCC to open without the "Catalyst Control Center cannot be opened." message. Games will also not open. I have tried so far to:


Use the Manufacturer's install DVD
Download the drivers straight from AMD's website
Uninstall the generic Windows Drivers and then repeat the two steps above.
Went into BIOS and made PCIe the default graphics option (it is currently back on auto).


.NET is current and updated (downloaded the updater to confirm). I have tried going through all the steps I can think of twice with no results, plus what I found through Google. Restarts and uninstalls were obviously done in between each attempt and method.

I'm not sure if this is normal these days (I'm thinking back a ways), but I have no resolution issues at all - even without the drivers installed. I can go from 800x600 to 1920x1080 and anywhere in between without any issues.

All installation attempts through AMD tools have given full-out Success messages in the installation logs.

Any ideas?

Honestly, no I have not. I realize there's a shot that would solve the problem, but I feel like there HAS to be a simpler solution to this issue than that. Reinstalling Windows over a graphsics card seems more destructive than it's worth.

However, if that is the consensus fix, I would then consider it.

Is there something specific that leads you to believe that reinstalling would solve the problems?

I have had similar problems with ccc not opening and I tried ALOT of "solutions" and "this might fix it" but none of it worked. So I just backed up the Important files I had on my computer and reinstalled windows. This fixed it for me, but I agree with you that it might seem like it is not worth the hassle. that is up to you.
