I'm using a Sapphire HD 5570 and I'm going to upgrade to a PowerColor HD 7770. I've seen guides that say uninstall the drivers and stuff but what is the correct way to do it? How do you uninstall the drivers too?

Just uninstall the AMD display driver.
Though, you should download the HD7770 driver and save it on desktop. Uninstall your current driver, shut down your PC when the uninstallation is completed. Unplug everything, and ALWAYS unplug the power cable. Replace the GPU, boot up, install the new driver you just downloaded, and you're good to go.

I uninstalled the AMD display driver and when I put the new GPU in, my monitor says no signal... :(
