Windows 10: Latest AMD video driver corrupts Windows 10

Installing the latest AMD video drivers today (2019-11-11) that were available in the OS updates the Windows 10 installation cannot boot. After a couple of restarts the repair screen came up. None of the options could do anything.


Unfortunately, it was not possible to prevent this driver from installing.


Considering that Windows 10 cannot boot, any suggestions what files have to be modified to remove the faulty update?

AMD Driver for Windows 10 not Functioning

I have an AMD HD 6450 in a Dell Inspiron 620 (mid 2011) and after Windows 10 upgrade the AMD drivers (for Windows 10, 64 bit) are not working and are disabled. The error code in Device Manager is: "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported
problems. (Code 43)". Windows defaults to the Microsoft basic video driver.

I have tried the following:

• Download latest AMD Catalyst and have it install appropriate drivers
• Uninstalled all video drivers (using the latest version of DDU) and tried agein
• I worked with the Microsoft Answer Desk yesterday and they tried (via remote) to fix the problem but were unable to

Not sure what to do next, not sure if this is a Windows or Dell or AMD problem but... thought people should know - the AMD Windows 10, 64 bit, drivers for the HD 6450 don't work.

 

SSD samsung evo and amd drivers

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

The issue could be because of the AMD drivers installed on the computer.

Since the Samsung SSD is working fine with the Microsoft AHCI driver, I suggest you to update the AMD driver and check if that helps. To update the AMD drivers follow the steps from the article

Update drivers in Windows 10.

If updating the drivers didn’t help, I suggest you to roll back the driver to previous build and check if that helps. To roll back the driver to previous build follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Press and hold the Windows + X key on the keyboard.
   
2. Select Device manager.
   
3. In Device manager, expand IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers.
   
4. Right click on AMD SATA Controller and select
   Properties.
   
5. Navigate to the Driver tab and click on Roll Back Driver.
   
6. Restart the computer.
   

Hope it helps.
