I Recently upgraded from an asus hd 7770 to an xfx r9 290, and i uninstalled the old drivers and when i tried to install the new driver, (http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows%2010%20-%2064) the installer gets stuck on analyzing system. I used DDU to uninstall the old drivers.

Hello,

My name is Mark from XFX.

Tutorial for proper driver installation.

1-Load windows with only your primary graphics card plugged in.
2-Disable any and ALL anti-virus/malware protection.
3-Download and Run the 15.11 (or latest) drivers from AMD.com (Omega drivers do not have Uninstall built in, you have to do it through add/remove, which is okay)
4-Choose to Uninstall/express (may not be available in newest version, download an older version) the existing drivers, and AMD folder
5-Restart the computer.
6-Disable any and ALL anti-virus/malware protection.
7-Run the 15.11 drivers from AMD.com
8-Choose to Install/Express the drivers
9-Restart. Confirm settings are working in windows.
10-Shutdown and add 2nd/3rd cards for Xfire...

** If you have nvidia drivers on your computer, you might need to run the Uninstall feature of Nvidias driver as well.
