  1. Getting a blank screen on startup


    Randomly when turning on my computer sometimes it will come up with just a grey screen on both moniters, then the only way to get off that is to turn off my computer by holding down the power button, once i turn my computer back on the display drivers have broken and my gpu doesnt work until i redownload my drivers. I've tried reinstalling my driver's, and fully wiping them and reinstalling them, I've tried downloading different types of the amd drivers and the minimal install etc. I've also reset my whole computer and reinstalled windows but it still happens. theres no thing that I can think
