Hi,

So today my computer crashed into a yellow screen with grey stripes, so I had to hard restart the computer. Opening any programs or browsers would crash my computer into a random color screen as well. After several hours, I eventually figured it was probably a driver issue so I thought I would update the driver (had to get the download from safe mode). During the driver installation my screen went blank and now when I turn on the computer there's no signal from monitor with HDMI cable. The card is AMD Radeon 77something and I've read about others with Radeon that had similar crashes. I don't know anything about computers help please.

Honestly it doesn't sound like it had anything to do with driver installation. It sounds like your video card just took a huge crap and happened to do so during the installation and now you have a dead video card. That's what it sounds like to me.
