Ok guys so i did have a Radeon 7850 and i just bought a Radeon r9 200 and when ive installed the drivers it came up with an error at end of installation, I rebooted my PC as it asked, and its showing a yellow sign in device manager.

Here is the sign and what it says when i double click on the Graphics card.

This is the sign


This is what it says when i click on it


I normally have the amd catalyst control center were i can go in to adjust my scaling options but i don't have that now i just seem to have the evolved gaming thing which i don't want.

Hope someone can help me with this issue.

well remove the driver as shown at the amd driver pages foot notes and reinstall

you say what driver you used or where it came from so it may not be a signed driver

AMD Catalyst Control Center requires Microsoft .NET4 Framework. Windows Vista and Windows 7 users may need to install the Microsoft .NET4 Framework as a prerequisite to use Catalyst Control Center.

Since you're going from an older card to new I'd suggest using the AMD Cleanup Utility in Safe Mode.
After you completely remove all AMD products (that you no longer have) boot to Windows normally.

Now install the driver again.

should not need to anything but uninstall and reinstall as stated in the drivers foot notes and be done with it.. I never had to go out side of that for any card amd or NVidia

When i rebooted my computer gaming evolved auto starts up and this notification popped up in bottom right saying i needed to update my driver i clicked that and downloaded the driver now the yellow sign has gone and this time i had no errors when the instillation was complete.


So hopefully now i have the correct driver and the up to date driver,


Is that evolved gaming thing ok to uninstall as i wont use it.
