Restarted pc during amd update. Screen black

Nick_136 · Oct 24, 2016

Doing this on phone so excuse typos.

Ok so stupidly i turned off my pc because i was worried something wasnt right. It had been updating for at least half an hour. Now i can see the acer start up screen and go ro bios eg. But its either a black screen or a white circle spinning around for over half an hour now

Windows 10
Amd r80x or something pretty sure thats it

Thanks in advance

If windows fails to boot enough times youll be sent to a recovery menu and it will do its best to fix the problem

If this recovery menu doesnt come up or if it cant fix the problem youll need either a recovery disk/usb or a win10 install disk/usb
Boot one of those and try recovering from there

If that doesnt work try getting into safemode with it, if you make it to safemode try using DDU: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html to uninstall amd's drivers and then boot into windows

By this point, if you cant get to safe mode or if DDU didnt work you are pretty screwed (try recovering 1 more time)

I posted this sorta PSA thread on this issue, does your BIOS allow you to up the PCI-E latency timer?
