No you don't as @jaslion said. Just download a fresh copy of the AMD drivers but do not install them just yet. Run DDU in Safe Mode (the program can reboot into Safe Mode) and unplug your ethernet cable/disconnect from WiFi if you are using it to prevent Windows from installing a driver off the internet during bootup. After logging back in, install the drivers you previous downloaded that I said to not install just yet and install. Afterwards, reboot( if AMD still requires you to do so after installing drivers) and reconnect the ethernet cable/connect to WiFi. 

So i recently got an rx 590. i used to have a gtx 750ti and i just heard about this DDU thingy. i already installed my new card unfortunately. do i need to swap back out to the 750ti and then uninstall the drivers?
