GPU wont function / Drivers wont install

[spencerstephens]

Today I built my first pc. I switched from Nvidia to AMD (RX570/Ryzen 5 160AF), but used my old HDD for the build. The Nvidia drivers were still on the HDD when I attempted to download the new Radeon Drivers. When opening Radeon software, I get an error message "No AMD graphics driver is installed, or the AMD driver is not functioning properly. Please install the AMD driver appropriate for your device. In device manager, my GPU has a red triangle and it's description reads "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)". Getting really tired of trying to get this to work, so thank you very much for any help.

i had a red triangle on a 470 i got used, turned out it had a mining bios on it. maybe if you got used you have the same thing. Use the ddu program to remove the nvidia drivers and try again

Sounds like you need to flash the GPU with the original bios file.

 

Which model is your GPU?

@GreyestGoat The GPU is an RX570. I switched to the second BIOS and it booted up all deep fried rainbow pixilated. Turned it off, switched back to original, and now it's on a long black screen upon bootup.

@Earnist_ I tried this with no success.

The card is junk, can you return it?

Thank you all for your help. My issue has been fixed. As mentioned above, I turned off my pc, swtiched the BIOS switch on my GPU, watched my pc die before my eyes upon boot up, retried with original BIOS to meet a permanent black screen. I switched the back to fried BIOS out of curiosity, was met an intense increase in outtake fan speed (so much so that I felt it at a perpindicular angle to the flow), and the system booted up just fine. Everything works now. Honestly suspicious this happens after immediately after telling the seller about the issue. Anyways thanks for the help everyone have a good life!
