    Since t,his mornings update to build 1809, my screen goes very dark.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    Hi Adrienne,

    The challenges that you are having with the screen of your computer may be hardware-related. However, we cannot cross out the fact that it may still be software-related. Having said that, we may go through a series of troubleshooting steps that are more
    focused on the software aspect of your computer. Before we proceed, let us isolate the issue by answering the following questions:

    • When did you start to notice the issue with the brightness on your computer?
    • Were there any recent changes made on your computer?

    We also suggest that you update the display drivers of your computer. Here is a
    link
    that will direct you to a page that contains the steps on how to do so.

    Any update from you is highly appreciated.

    Dark screen

    Re-started Windows Explorer: My screen went blank/dark blue

    1. My taskbar disappeared first. I opened task manager and found Windows Explorer at the bottom of the processes.

    2. I pressed re-start and normally, the screen goes back to normal. I didn't do the steps you list in 2.

    3. No. I just get the list.

    4. I restarted my computer and nothing changes. I turned it off and waited, then turned it back on. I get the sign on screen. Enter my password and then the dark blue screen appears.

    That 's it.
