Hello, i purchased a brand new XFX R9 280X Black Edition a while back now i installed and used the provided driver (AMD Catalyst 13.12) everything worked fine, but then after a few weeks when a new driver was released and i tried to update i started having issues (i made sure the old drivers were uninstalled) the issues i was having are as followed when i just updated everything would work fine i could any game etc but as soon as i rebooted my pc shit hit the fan, my screen would started flickering as soon as windows was booted and i moved anything folders/scolled on firefox etc if i tried to boot up a game i would just get a black/black and grey stripes screen and the pc would lock up the only option to reboot would be to force reboot by pressing the power button for 3 seconds.
If i return to the old driver (AMD Catalyst 13.12) everything works fine again..so i decided to wait until a new driver is released again when it did the same problem persisted i just let it be and kept the old driver but now the new games i try to play, Fallout 4 for example requires me to update to the latest drivers or the game wont work
I have tried a clean install of windows 7, uninstalled all drivers etc nothing seems to fix the issue as long as the driver stays on the old one (AMD Catalyst 13.12) everything is fine but when i update everything goes ham .
