R9 270x Driver Issues

Specs: 

 

AMD Sempron 145

4GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 RAM 

MSI 970A-G46

320GB WD HDD

MSI R9 270x.

Seasonic 550RM

 

Windows 7 boots into normal mode fine through the onboard graphics. I downloaded the drivers for the graphics card which prompted to reboot the system. When rebooting into Win7 Normal mode, the screen freezes black after the windows logo. I can still access Safe Mode using the onboard graphics. What is the problem ?

If you are booting with the onboard make sure you plug your monitor(s) into the card, also turn off the onboard in the BIOS.

I'll try it. BTW, the mobo doesn't even have a display output. It goes through the graphics card.

Oh, Well give it a shot, Also I would try to install a older version for the drivers if this doesn't work. Also if the issue occurs when you start folding, Use an older folding software version

You can't disable onboard graphics on this mobo. It's not in the bios. Also, I've tried older versions of the drivers. They don't work.

I am still figuring driver issues, just not 100% sure.

I have the exact same card and everything worked fine on that one. Although something I've noticed, It was running a different GPU BIOS.
