Hey, it's me again, I did get the graphics card and a new PSU, and everything worked up nicely. I could play whatever I wanted, everything was nice.
But yesterday, while playing H1Z1, the computer crashed. There was a buzzing sound from the speakers and the screen was all grey with black little vertical lines. I rebooted the computer, and it worked, so I opened H1Z1 again. As soon as it had to render the map next to the menu, it crashed again, same thing.
Afterwards, it wouldn't even want to boot up into windows. It would load windows and then just block on a backlit black screen. (will add pictures)
So I tried to reinstall windows, everything worked out just fine. When I tried to install the AMD display driver, the computer would act in the same manner as before, but it wouldn't continue working without posting, the whole computer would just crash. 0% usage on disk, won't shut down by pressing power button, won't post on integrated graphics.
BIOS booted up just fine, it did post, no issues there.

Here are a few pics in case they help you in any way.

Thanks in advance.

It's me again... I used BIOS to make igfx the main vga output and it worked, so now only the gpu won't work. It just won't boot if there is a display driver installed... What could be the issue? I am literally helpless right now.

Don't install the driver that you been installed (did you get it from gigabyte's website? if so make sure you get the correct version that matches your windows(32bit or 64bit). maybe get a older driver version? or use windows to update the driver via device managment if that helps.

I did this right now, it's the same result, after all, it's still an AMD software driver, a little older than the new one.

I was thinking, could it be the DVI I port? I use a DVI to VGA dongle, because my screen only has a VGA connection. I can't find my HDMI cable, so what should I do? Is it even worth to try? I mean... After all, it does post before installing the software.
